Body Wisdom Retreats

I came to the retreat self conscious that I hadn’t practiced yoga for some time and would not be in great shape to participate in most of the poses. I left feeling empowered and confident. I learned so much more than poses. It is a new way of taking care of my body, soul and mind! I am so much more aware of my breath and how important it is in my yoga practice. It is also important for me to share what’s weighing on me to help let go of baggage and dirt of my past, present and future. Living in the moment was a true experience at the retreat with the beautiful surroundings and the acceptance I felt from Joseph and the group. A new found respect and reverence for our bodies and nature was something I treasure finding at the retreat. I would highly recommend this retreat. It is truly a life changing experience! Joseph is a gifted teacher who shares his wisdom and meets each student where they are. I feel rested, accepted, empowered and loved!

I heard rave reviews from a friend of mine that had experienced Joseph's yoga retreat in Costa Rico. I knew I had to go!!!!! I came to the retreat with a mixed bag of yoga experiences and with the oldest body at the retreat. I was worried that I would not be able to keep up with the group, but Joseph was a blessing. He was able to meet everyone where they were at. I came away with a new understanding of yoga or what Joseph explains in his book "Miracle of Body Wisdom". I learned how to breathe, and through this was able to release painful past experiences and feel more grounded in the present. I hope to live with love, peace, power and beauty in the world I am in. Thank you, Joseph.

....After completing the program, I am happy to say that I am off my anxiety medication and now have the tools to live my life to the fullest. Joseph has put his heart and soul into this project and you will feel that love throughout, because, you know what… he honestly has your back!

"I experienced a major shift in mind and body. I am not only less anxious and more happy since returning home, but inspired and confident to do my own yoga practice using the powerful breathing principles that I learned. If you're thinking about doing a Yoga retreat with Joseph, go for it! You'll be glad you did!"

Attending this six-day yoga retreat in Costa Rica, led by Joseph, was a profoundly transformative experience. When I arrived, I was grappling with anxiety, depression, and uncertainty about my career path. By the end of the retreat, I felt as though I had shed a heavy weight. The experience allowed me to release negative thoughts and unhealthy habits that had been clouding my clarity and hindering my progress. Joseph remarkably creates a sacred space where everyone feels safe to open up and authentically express themselves without fear of judgment. Going in, I did not know anyone, yet while I was there, I found myself in a space filled with love, compassion and empathy. I have never experienced anything like it before in my life. I initially worried about slipping back into my old ways once I returned home. Fortunately, throughout the 6 days, Joseph equipped me with valuable tools and knowledge, teaching me how to breathe deeply, find inner peace, and ground myself… allowing me to move forward with renewed clarity and calm. Joseph possesses an extraordinary gift and I am grateful he shares it with us. Everyone deserves to experience his retreats; they are truly life-changing!

We need each other. We need connection. This retreat is the place to surrender your stories, to put down the years. Feel and hold the joy, the pleasure, the grief, the losses of our being. Joseph is a true witness of mercy. He holds space for you with grace and compassion, until you feel again the peace that is you, the healing within that’s been quietly waiting all along. Joseph is the yoga that brings us home.
