Event Overview


We are excited to announce we are holding this year’s intercultural gathering in Costa Rica!

Imagine yourself waking up to exquisite yoga, surrounded by crystal blue rivers and exotic flowers in the Costa Rican cloud forest, and listening deeply to the ancient wisdom of a Boruca matriarch (Costa Rica), Tibetan meditation master (Himalayas), and Navajo medicine man (North America)... for 7 days!

Together we will explore some of the most essential questions of our time:

* How might we take steps, as individuals and in community, to create a global culture of peace?
* How can we reconnect to our innermost well-being and live happily while contributing to the well-being of others?
* How can we restore the interconnected web of life of the natural world?
* As experts of overcoming immense challenge, what wisdom can traditional communities share about skillfully addressing modern challenges?

                                               Venue

A mountain like a green carpet where you can hear the sound of a crystal clear river and the song of birds; where your eyes will be amazed by the colors of the flowers that bloom in the gardens and native forests; where your lungs will breathe pure air and you will be able to see the water that flows from the springs of the earth. Imagine a place where people believe in goodness, have the best disposition to serve you, and help you connect with the best that lives within you. This is La Montaña Azul!
