Why Should We “Take a Break” When We Can “Take a Breath”?

Embark on an enriching experience where joy, hope, and nature converge within the pristine landscapes of Costa Rica.

In global times of uncertainty and pain, we offer a soulful oasis that we call a retreat so that you can find peace, bear witness to your inner self, and embrace your humanity.

Immerse yourself in a dynamic fusion of practices rooted in relational psychology, ancient and modern teachings, Jewish rituals, soulful music, invigorating movement, play, reflective journaling, and serene meditation.

Amidst the breathtaking natural beauty, discover how simplicity becomes profound, and beauty comes alive, touching your soul in unexpected ways.

Your "journal" becomes your trusted companion during the retreat, offering a safe space for free expression and insights without judgment.

Guided by four decades of dedicated expertise, Karina Zilberman and Marcelo Bronstein have mastered the art of holding space where private introspection and communal engagement harmonize seamlessly.

We warmly await your arrival, ready to provide a curated experience where you can bear witness to your inner self in the breathtaking beauty of Costa Rica's natural wonders. Marcelo and Karina

Walking into the retreat, I didn’t know what to expect and wasn’t sure this cynical not-that-observant Jew could surrender myself to whatever lay ahead.  But from the moment we stepped onto the property, I inherently trusted Marcelo and Karina to open doors of spirituality and meaning gently and without judgment.  The retreat was filled with creativity, inspiration, and care, and surprised me with its ability to open my heart and nourish my soul.  That it is based on my culture and my story gave it even deeper meaning.  I came in a skeptic but left with new energy, perspective, and tools to manage life’s challenges and savor its gifts. The location is exquisite, but it is bested by the intention and purpose of each well-crafted moment.  I cannot recommend the aptly named Breathtaking Retreats enough – and I can’t wait to go back.
