AN INVITATION TO SLOW DOWN, ROOT DOWN, AND PLANT THE SEEDS FOR GROWTH
As the seasons change, and nature prepares to turn inward so that she may be reborn in Spring... we do too.
This is the time to journey deep within, to reconnect, reset, and to sow all that we wish to harvest in the new year.
Join us for an unforgettable country escape, immersed in nature, that will leave you feeling grounded, restored, aligned and connected, ready for a fresh start, and for all that's yet to come.
STORY TIME
Hear from previous retreat guests
Evan B.
"The Earthbound retreat made me more conscious, both generally and specifically, of the beliefs that I have about myself and other people in the world that are holding me back from the things that I want.
"It was my first retreat, actually. And I felt like it may be it felt a little expensive . . . I [now] feel like you can't put a price tag on these things. I'll definitely come back and do more retreats here. This is just so worth it.
"I feel super connected and centered and nourished."
Michele M.
"I think anybody who wants to improve their self-awareness, relax a little bit, and challenge yourself a little bit: you should try it.
"Everything was super prepared with care, the timing was very good, and the quality of the classes was great. The phenomenal environment spills over into us; it contaminates us in a good way. We feel that it's a labor of love from everyone here.
"I wouldn't change anything [about the retreat experience], I really wouldn't."
Dee K.
"This retreat feeds your body, it feeds your soul. The appearance of such bounty in nature is very calming and yet exciting.
"It was a wonderful variety of modalities that we got to experience. With Chelsea's classes I enjoy her invitation. I think she'll always give you the the welcome in. And she'll allow you to adjust your participation based on your capabilities.
"Even if you're unfamiliar with it, if you're willing to just give it a try and be open to it, you find that it's even better than you would have expected."
RETREAT ACTIVITIES
Here's what you can expect during our five days together
DAILY YOGA AND MOVEMENT PRACTICE
We will start each day with a guided movement practice. As a certified yoga instructor, Chelsea will be guiding us in a variety of styles, from Vinyasa to Yin, offering variations and adjustments for all levels, so you can make the most of your practice, whether you're a seasoned yogi or it's your first time on the mat.
MEDITATION & MINDFULNESS
Our movement practice will be complemented by daily meditation and/or mindfulness sessions. These sessions are designed to let go of the past and future, bringing us into the joy of the present moment.
TRANSFORMATIONAL BREATHWAVE JOURNEY
Breathwave is a self-healing practice that utilizes a fluid and relaxed breath to cultivate vital balance and higher states of consciousness. While this practice is easy to learn, it has the power to uncover and unleash the body's natural wisdom and activate our super powers. By clearing the subconscious mind of old programs and relaxing our Nervous System, this is a direct path to a healthy, expressed life.
EQUINE THERAPY SESSION
Meet Tierra Jiasú's very own horse-whisperer, Carlos Mancera, and his herd, as we dive into the fascinating world of holistic horsemanship, and learn about the deep, intuitive connection between horse and human. This practice emphasizes mutual respect and trust, promoting mental and emotional well-being through mindful interaction with these sensitive, intelligent animals.
ANCESTRAL TEMAZCAL CEREMONY
The Temazcal Ceremony (or sweatlodge) is an ancestral ritual native to the lands of Mesoamerica where we connect with the different elements for a profound energetic reset. An extremely powerful medicine, yet grounded in its nature, that promotes a deep sense of connection to mother nature, and to ourselves.
FOREST BATHING MEDITATION
Rejuvenate your body, mind and spirit in this peaceful, transformative experience, as we embark on a walking meditation through the estate’s private forests. Reconnect with the earth, your body, and your roots, engaging all your senses as you breathe in the fresh forest air and allow yourself to become one with nature.
GUIDED TOUR OF THE RANCH AND GARDENS
Join Tierra Jiasú's resident botanist Andrés on a fascinating tour through the estate's beautiful permaculture gardens, learn about the biodynamic practices that support and promote the natural balance and abundance of the land, while helping him harvest fresh, organic produce straight from the vine for us to have as our afternoon snack.
HEALTHY, ORGANIC, FARM-TO-TABLE MEALS
At Tierra Jiasú, the gastronomic experience is a celebration of the connection with the earth and the seasons. Enjoy three delicious vegetarian meals per day, created with love by Tierra Jiasú's talented team of chefs using fresh, organic ingredients directly from the garden. All meals are included, as are unlimited herbal tea, coffee, and water.

HEAR FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS
Kimber O.
"Chelsea is such an amazing teacher. You can tell her passion. You can tell her depth. I love that she adapted her classes to fit everybody's specific needs.
"I've done yoga positions I've never done before, and it just made me realize how extensive her practice is. And it's contagious.
"And the breathwork that she's now incorporating into the classes, it just really helps you kind of seal in those good energies and the good vibes that you're putting out."
Evan B.
"Chelsea is a wonderful yoga teacher. I've enjoyed her classes and so she mentioned that she was having a retreat that would involve yoga, horses, nine dogs, and I was sold.
"I will continue my practice after this . . . only with Chelsea."
Michele M.
"I hadn't done yoga in 20 years. Chelsea was able to help when I had difficulty and teach me how to do something so I could feel better, so I felt really comfortable.
"She is very profound. So whatever she is telling us, she studied it a lot. And I love that she gives us a little bit of the theory of what we're doing and why we're doing it, and then we experiencing it. The buy in comes in naturally. The buy in came actually even before doing the activity, because I knew she was very thoughtful about every activity."
