SACRED VALLEY YOGA & AYURVEDA RETREAT
Samadhi Sacred Valley | Cusco, Peru
Aug. 1-7, 2024
VITALITY. CREATIVITY. CONNECTION.
YOU'RE INVITED!
We're off to Samadhi Retreat Center, located in the Sacred Valley of Cusco, Peru.
IMAGINE: Daily Yoga classes and Ayurveda workshops with breathtaking views of the valley and Andes Mountains, 3 meals a day with fresh ingredients from Samadhi's garden, cultural immersion through art therapy, pachamama ceremonies, and spiritual hikes, healing spa services, and plenty of time to relax, rejuvenate, and restore.
This retreat will provide you with an opportunity to deepen your connection to Pachamama (Mother Earth) through Samadhi's unique and natural location, their cultural offerings and ceremonies, and FSW's Ayurveda Workshops.
Ayurveda is the sister science of Yoga and it teaches you how to live your best possible life with back-to-basic and natural approaches to healthy living through knowledge of philosophy, spirituality, meditation, daily routine, and food as medicine. Through these practices we learn how to align ourselves with Mama Nature and all of the abundance she has to offer.
When we put together the sacredness of Samadhi and its culture along with the elements of an FSW Retreat (Yoga, Ayurveda & Community), it creates a body, mind, and spirit connection that will enable you to live a life of harmony, happiness, and abundance.
It's all set & we'd love to have you join!
A NOTE FROM CAROLE
Welcome!
I am so happy you're here, and I cannot wait to hold space for you on this retreat.
I am here to share the teachings of Yoga & Ayurveda in the spiritual setting of the Sacred Valley, Peru and remind you that you are powerful beyond all measure.
Hi, I'm Carole
Founder of Free Spirited Wanderer; Yoga & Wellness Retreats
+ Lifestyle Coaching.
My goal on all of my yoga retreats is to create an atmosphere where everyone feels safe to show up as their truest, most authentic selves.
FSW retreats value KULA; intentional community, the feeling that life is best when shared. I aim to bring people together where they can connect, share in transformational practices and build lifelong friendships. These are super sacred spaces with an opportunity for everyone to come together to support, uplift and empower each other.
My prayer for you is that these retreats help prepare you for your lifetime; providing you with a space to become the fullest expression of yourself so you can live your life so big, so beautiful and so bold.
About this retreat:
This 7 night / 8 day yoga & wellness retreat is all about balancing out adventure, self-exploration and R&R for the perfect retreat experience.
We will feed our adventurous soul through excursions such as, surfing, canopy ziplining, waterfall hiking, ATV's and arm balance / inversion workshops that will encourage you to take a leap and have some fun.
Self-exploration will be a theme through all yoga classes; where you will be given a space to dive deep within, pull back that layers and meet your true self. This part is never easy, but oh man, is it worth it!
As for the R&R, every class ends with a highly deserved savasana in order to integrate the practice - and let's not forget about the amazing onsite infinity pool, quiet grounds and nearby beach so you can unwind, decompress and allow your stress to dissipate as inner peace takes over.
The location alone provides the perfect place to balance all three of these. On top of that, Carole, is a fellow adventurer, self-exploration-er, and has learned after many years, how valuable rest truly is.
Carole will guide you through this retreat from her own life-experience, deep studies & personal practice of yoga philosophy, Asana, Ayurveda and Lifestyle Coaching.
You will leave this retreat feeling LIMITLESS, EMPOWERED, JOYOUS, FREE and with a fresh outlook on your life. You will also develop a better understanding of how to take yoga off the mat and into your everyday in order to live with more meaning and fulfillment in alignment with your truest, most authentic self.
THREE THINGS YOU WILL GET OUT OF THIS RETREAT:
01
A newfound appreciation for rest, relaxation & and the ability to just 'be'; a deeper understanding that rest must be held equally in value to the amount that we "do" or "give" to ourselves and others for optimal health, wellness & success.
02
New insights on how to take yoga off the mat and into your daily life, enabling you to create a lifestyle that brings more health, happiness, meaning & fulfillment to your soul.
03
A trip of a lifetime; 7 nights in the Costa Rican jungle, also just steps from the beaches, excursions, plenty of time to 'try something new', gourmet meals, a variety of yoga classes & workshops, new lifelong friends - all created and planned for you! All you have to do is get yourself to Costa Rica, and come with an open mind, heart and be ready to receive the benefits that this retreat will reap, during your stay and many years to come.

ABOUT SAMADHI
In the middle of a natural environment, surrounded by mountain and ancient culture that today maintain their traditions, grows Samadhi.
Designed with the sacred geometry, Samadhi will submerge you in the universe of the los Chakras, walking through the Kundalini and wrapping you in its spaces, colors, textures, flavors and art adapted for the energy central, to know and explore your essence.
To get close to the conscience state of the divine, we work in a holistic manner in four forms, yoga-meditation, food awareness, art therapy and cultural immersion. These aspects connect and count with the program especially for each chakra and is related with each bungalow; the first bungalow, the chakra raiz, is associated with the earth, is a space with a program of yoga-meditation, food, art and cultural experiences that help connect with the mother earth Pachamana, and then you will pass chakra to chakra.
