Healing retreats
Two paths for restoration and transformation at Mango Valley — immersive healing retreats, and The S.A.G.E. Program from The Energy Medicine Clinic.
Healing Retreats
Change is inevitable. Courage to act on it is a choice!
Some waves gently nudge us forward, while others sweep us off our feet. But within every wave lies an opportunity to grow, to transform, and to find a deeper connection to ourselves and the world around us.
- Are you facing a transition in your life, such as a new career, a relationship shift, or personal growth?
- Do you crave time to reflect, recharge, and reconnect with your inner power?
- Are you ready to stop resisting change and start embracing its transformative potential?
If you answered yes to any of these, this retreat is your opportunity to turn the tides of change into a wave of empowerment.
We invite you to join us for a five-day soul-nourishing retreat designed to help you ride these waves with grace, courage, and empowerment. Set against the serene backdrop of nature, this retreat blends the profound concepts of embracing change with the transformative practices of energy medicine, spiritual alignment, and personal empowerment.

The S.A.G.E. Program
Soul-Aligned Growth & Embodiment
A twelve-week guided return to yourself — to the wisdom, clarity, and strength that have always lived in you.
Most people don’t need fixing. They need space, support, reminders — and someone walking beside them while they reconnect with the parts of themselves they’ve been too busy to hear.
SAGE is not a reinvention. It is a remembering: of what your body knows, what your heart has whispered for years, and the purpose you came here with. It is the bridge between who you’ve been and who you are becoming.
How the journey unfolds
- 1 Six weeks of preparation — creating inner space and clarity online
- 2 One sacred week in Costa Rica at Mango Valley — held by nature and community
- 3 Five weeks of integration — so what you discover becomes lived truth
Three intentional phases
Weeks 1–6 · Online
Phase 1 — The Awakening
Weekly two-hour group sessions (MST via Zoom) to clear old patterns, understand your emotional landscape, learn tools such as EFT, HeartMath, breathwork, and energetic awareness, reconnect to intuition, and build friendship before you arrive in Costa Rica.
- Clear patterns that no longer belong in your next chapter
- Reconnect to intuition and inner wisdom
- Identify what your heart wants next — and what is ready to be released
- Arrive knowing exactly why you came
Week 7 · In person at Mango Valley
Phase 2 — The Immersion
A sacred week in the lush hills north of Grecia — misty mornings, birdsong, river paths, a heated saltwater pool, and vegetarian detox-supportive meals that amplify your inner work.
- Shamanic drum circles, Reiki, and energetic alignment
- Movement for emotional release, EFT tapping, and nature meditation
- Sound-water moonlight baths and fire-pit reflection circles
- Excursions to Poás Volcano, La Paz or Bajos del Toro, and coffee plantations
Weeks 8–12 · Online
Phase 3 — Integration
Five more weeks after the retreat to anchor insights into daily life, keep practices alive, sustain community, and create compassionate next-step plans for your new chapter.
- Anchor insights into everyday life
- Break through old patterns that try to return
- Stay accountable with compassion, not pressure
- Realize this wasn’t a trip — it was a beginning
Why SAGE works
- The mind craving clarity
- The body longing for regulation
- The heart hungry for connection
- The spirit ready to ignite
Most programs give insights. SAGE gives embodiment, experience, and integration — the rare combination that transforms a person from the inside out.
Who SAGE is for
- People ready for something different, but unsure what comes next
- Those who have spent years giving — and are ready to receive
- Anyone entering a new chapter who refuses to stay unclear or disconnected
- Souls seeking community with depth, not noise
- People in transitional seasons — midlife, career shifts, identity shifts, spiritual awakenings, or life reevaluation
