wild human
jungle BODY activation
WITH EMILY BLACKWELL + NICO NELSON
FEBRUARY 22-28, 2025
in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica
come alive
and unleash the truest,
most authentic version of yourself
Retreat to the jungle + embrace your inner WILD.
The intention of this retreat is to fully come ALIVE by uniting mind, body, & spirit in communion with Mother Nature; to remember our essential wildness and love ourselves back whole.
Escape the chaos of everyday life and immerse yourself in a transformative healing retreat nestled in the lush landscapes of Santa Teresa, Costa Rica.
Join us for a 6-day reset that will change the way you inhabit your mind, move + live in your body, and express your heart + spirit.
Come alive as you immerse yourself in the warm, vibrant embrace of mother nature and experience quantum leaps of personal growth and self-discovery unlike ever before.
This retreat was made for those who struggle with the fear of fully being themselves in the world. In this safe + sacred container, we will move through healing that could take months in our daily lives, in less than a week of deep, intentional focus.
By joining us on this retreat, you are claiming that you are ready to shift from the fear of being seen + imposter syndrome and embody your full humanity alongside your full divinity, so you can experience true freedom in your internal world, your relationships, and your work out in the world.

Her mission through all of her work is to guide you towards your own inner guru so that you can embody your power and live your truth through unconditional self-love and authenticity.

NICO NELSON
Nico is a Photographer/Videographer/Visual Artist, a 200-hour trained Yoga Instructor, a writer, a student of meditation from the Theravada Buddhist lineage, and an eternal student of mystic traditions from all over the world. Nico has been creating self-expression containers for over 6 years, supporting people to unleash their authentic selves in front of the camera and love their whole beings through artistic expression.
The foundation of Nico’s work is embodiment, presence, and transforming shame into LOVE. She uses simplicity and slow, self-compassionate practices to help folks return to the truth that we are all good, worthy, and here to share our gifts with the world. Her work stems from the truth that each of us has the capacity for gnosis (direct, self-experienced knowledge of life’s mysteries) that results from living life with a true heart.
