SOULUTIONS: Pura Vida in Costa Rica
Deb and Dana will incorporate the phrase “ Pura Vida” into what we have been learning as their students. Pura Vida means a pure or simple life. It’s a spirit, vibe or an attitude. To Costa Ricans its a philosophy that encourages the appreciation of life itself and the simple treasures received through “real living”. This will be the first of our international trips. Sisterhood adventures, Mindfulness activities, personal time and lots of bonding time can be expected.

Getting There
True Nature specializes in curating and offering the best retreat experiences. For your flights, we recommend that you use Google Flights or a trusted travel agency.
You will be booking your flights for the San Jose International Airport (SJO). Before booking tickets, please be sure you have received your official confirmation note that the retreat has met its minimums. There will be one group airport shuttle each way based on our flight window guidelines. Be sure your flights align with the provided flight windows if you wish to use the group shuttle.

Travel Insurance
We cannot emphasize more the importance of travel insurance. As we all know, especially as travelers, “life happens.” Whether it’s family, work, mother nature, or a change of heart, it is important to be prepared in case you need to unexpectedly change your travel plans. Often for less than $150, you can purchase a travel insurance policy and be protected in the event that you need to make a change or need to be covered financially prior to or during your trip.
We have partnered with Trawick International (available for U.S. Residents only). Read more about their policies here. We encourage you to research the insurance company and policy that best meets your needs.
