About the event

What is Forest Therapy?

Forest Therapy is a relational practice that brings people into deeper intimacy with natural places. And one of those natural places is our natural self; it’s a practice that holds the possibility of meeting again the kernel of who we are, what we are born to be, and how we are intended to be of service in the world. Forest Therapy is greatly influenced by and derived from the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku, forest bathing which is found to have a number of health benefits including boosted immune function, improved cardiovascular and respiratory health, attention restoration, and a reduction in stress and depression.

What should I bring?

Dress for the weather. Layers are always recommended. Consider long white socks and other methods of tick bite prevention. Feel free to bring water and snacks.

For decades, Costa Rica has been the first-choice place for yoga practitioners and seekers looking to unplug and find spiritual alignment. The country features some of the most unique and pristince ecology in the world, including beaches, rain forest and volcanoes. It is environmentally conscious and has a peaceful and sustainable sensability rarely found elsewhere. After an over three year pause on out of country retreats, I am elated to bring fellow travelers to such a sacred space.

What people have to say about yoga retreats with Lara

Going inside with chakra work, connecting with the body through powerful ashtanga morning flow and yummy restorative at night, followed by an empowering group journaling session. Thank you Lara, you are an awesome guide. Thank you for those eye opening prompts and for uniting all of us. All the beautiful women I met, I’ll bring in my heart forever. What a blessing.

Sam

Traveling with Lara was one of the best trips of my life. She planned an incredibly thoughtful, balanced itinerary that allowed us to experience the spiritual wonder, cosmopolitan energy, and natural beauty of the country. Everything was meticulously organized – we had comfortable accommodations, knowledgeable tour guides, and convenient transportation throughout the trip – and Lara was great at managing any unexpected hiccups so we didn’t have to. The best part of traveling with Lara, however, was the genuinely positive energy she brought to the experience. Her excitement about each leg of our trip was infectious; she created opportunities for us to reflect and build our own meaning of what we were experiencing; she checked in with each of us but also gave us space to ensure we had the best time possible. She attracted a wonderful group of people to share and enrich the experience. I would highly recommend taking a trip with Lara!

New Year Intention-Setting Workshop with Lara Land
Pre-covid, we know that over 70% of the US population had survived some form of trauma. Since the pandemic, those numbers have only risen. Trauma survivors and folks dealing with traumatic stress are in every room. They don’t wear signs, and they might not tell us. It is our job in corporate, school, or other shared settings to be aware of the hidden trauma that is in every room and to educate ourselves so that we don’t unintentionally do harm.

You can improve your skills by learning about trauma and implementing some simple, tangible techniques for creating safer spaces for your team and the folks you serve.

Half and Full-Day Trauma-Sensitivity Workshops are available both in person and virtually.
