HELD
A Retreat for Women Who Are Ready to Rest
HELD is an intimate women's retreat at Innerlight Yoga Lodge in Playa Sámara, Costa Rica.
A place where yoga, Reiki, Ayurveda, and conscious nourishment come together not as a program — but as an act of care.
You will not be pushed. You will not be performing. You will simply be held.
What this retreat holds
Odaka Yoga A fluid, ocean-inspired practice that returns you to your body. Not to perfect it — to inhabit it again.
Meditation Guided sessions to quiet what has been loud for too long. Stillness you can actually feel.
Reiki Healing Gentle. Profound. Energy work that reaches where words cannot. Each session offered with presence and deep intention.
Ayurveda Ancient wisdom made practical. Learn to listen to your body's rhythms and live in greater harmony with yourself and the natural world.
Ayurvedic Massage Nourishing treatments to release what the body has been holding. Tension, fatigue, the residue of a life lived too fast.
Conscious Nourishment Every meal prepared with Ayurvedic principles — seasonal, wholesome, alive. Food as medicine. Food as love.

Why HELD?
Because healing begins when we feel safe. When we feel seen. When we feel supported.
HELD is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you already are — beneath the noise, the roles, the constant movement of life.
This is Federica's invitation. And she means it.
This retreat is for you if:
You are exhausted in a way that sleep hasn't fixed You have been giving to everyone but yourself You feel the pull toward something quieter, slower, more real You are ready — even if you're not sure what for
You will leave:
More present in your body More trusting of your own wisdom More rested than you thought possible More yourself
You don't have to hold everything alone. For a few days
— let yourself be HELD.
I do not believe healing is about becoming someone else.
I believe it is about remembering who we truly are."
— Federica, your guide
