〽 It was an incredible retreat and journey in the Sacred Valley of Peru last week. Guided by a yoga theme, we immersed ourselves with open and curious minds to learn, release the old, explore a new culture, and soak up the breathtaking views of the valley and grandeur of the Andes Mountains. The warmth of the beautiful Peruvian people is a distinguishable highlight, from our hosts at the retreat lodge, to our guides, and every smile along the way.
Gracias Pachamama (thanks to the great mother spirit) and to each of you who joined the retreat! 🙏

There is something monumentally peaceful about walking this wild and pristine tropical beach, between jungle and ocean, in the early morning light.
It’s like traversing a boundary line between worlds, terrestrial and marine, earth and water elements, and immersing in both.
If you’ve been thinking about getting away somewhere beautiful, tranquil, and surrounded by nature with a yoga inspired theme, join us here during the Costa Rican summer (December - April) on a 6-night Yoga and Wellness Retreat.
Dive in and deepen your practice with daily alignment-based Hatha and vinyasa yoga. All levels of yoga are welcome.
Enjoy an included relaxing therapeutic massage. There is an option to learn to surf or join a guided stand-up paddle outing.
If you’re dreaming of a peaceful, pristine tropical beach that is far from the hustle and haste of everyday life, which makes you feel relaxed and rejuvenated, this place will meet that bar 🌴
This beach has become a favorite spot for so many who visit. Frequently, they don’t want to leave or they return again and again.
Also a favorite is the *Bungalow Suite* with expansive ocean views. And! It is available for our next Yoga and Wellness Retreat *December 8 - 14*.
Join us for the gorgeous beginning of Costa Rica’s summer ☀ and have this to look forward to as the cold winter sets in in the north.

After these years of running yoga retreats (since 2006), it is an honor to be featured in National Geographic Traveller’s first Latin America Collection 🌟
Here is a bit of the write-up intro:
“Vajra Sol Yoga Retreats offers unparalleled experiences of self-discovery and rejuvenation in the awe-inspiring landscapes of Patagonia on the Chile-Argentina border, and also amid the mystical allure of Peru. For over 15 years, Vajra Sol has been hosting intimate yoga retreats with a focus on providing cultural experiences in breathtaking natural settings. Each retreat blends the tranquillity of yoga and meditation with unique adventures, the exploration of sacred sites and immersive encounters with local traditions.”
When you have been in the deeper practice of yoga for a while, there is a honing of one's awareness for the energy of a place, specifically in nature. I have long sensed the power of the regions we visit in Peru and Patagonia. They draw you in, crack you open, and leave you with a profound appreciation for the experience of being there. I have seen, having guided 1,000+ travelers, how the transformative effects are uplifting, inspiring, and long-lasting.
The last photo was taken in 2007 at the border crossing of Argentina and Chile on a month-long trip in Patagonia.
It is with endless gratitude to everyone who has come on the retreats and to those who continue to join regularly. I look forward to guiding you in soulful yoga sessions and on an epic journey in South America 🙏 - Sandra

Summer is here! Ready to practice yoga outside in the sun? ☀️
Practicing yoga in the outdoors gets us more in tune with nature. Furthermore, when we are in coherence with the greater solar cycle, we sleep better and feel better. To wake with the sun and set with the sun is to align our circadian rhythm in a healthy state. This is a vital aspect of yoga.
DID YOU KNOW? 🌙🌞🌟🌓
“Light and dark have the biggest influence on circadian rhythms, but food intake, stress, physical activity, social environment, and temperature also affect them. Most living things have circadian rhythms, including animals, plants, and microorganisms. In humans, nearly every tissue and organ has its own circadian rhythm, and collectively they are tuned to the daily cycle of day and night.
Circadian rhythms influence important functions in the human body, such as:
* Sleep patterns
* Hormone release
* Appetite and digestion
* Temperature
Circadian rhythms can fall out of sync with the outside world due to factors in the human body or environment, such as light from electronic devices at night that can confuse biological clocks.
Drowsiness, poor coordination, and difficulty with learning and focus may occur when circadian rhythms fall out of sync short term. Long-term sleep loss and continually shifting circadian rhythms can increase the risks of obesity, diabetes, mood disorders, heart and blood pressure problems, and cancer, and can also worsen existing health issues.”

Sync up your biological clock with the sun and do some yoga outside this weekend!

Peru retreat AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2024.
What is it like to visit Machu Picchu? The mystical Inca archeological wonder is situated between the Andes Mountains and the Amazon of Peru. Built in the 1500s, it was hidden for 100s of years before it was discovered in the early 1900s. To this day it is still not known how the Incas were able to construct “The Lost City” high on a remote steep mountain. I have been to this incredible ancient site more than a dozen times and each visit it amazes even more.
There is a daily limit to how many people can enter the sacred site of Machu Picchu. If you’re considering joining this trip, now is the time to book. Any questions? Please comment here or DM. https://www.vajrasoltravel.com/yoga-retreats/peru/

The path to the yoga studio passes through beautiful botanical gardens. There is a sanctuary-like quality to this place that makes it natural to immerse deeper into your yoga practice.

8-night retreat is US $3,150+ single / $2,650+ double. For what’s included and all the details contact us today.
Our last retreat of the season in Costa Rica!
Such a pleasure to have these 12 beautiful, colorful retreaters come together for a week on the beach with daily yoga, delicious meals, surfing, SUPing, lots of joyful and some cheeky laughter 😅, nature connection, and three birthday celebrations.
What makes each retreat special is the eclectic nature of the group. As such, the outcome is a unique surprise each time ✨💕
A notable thank-you to the dearest “regulars” - Greta, Sveta, Jen, for gracing your presence on retreat again 🙏
Our next Costa Rica yoga & wellness retreat is December 8 - 14, 2024 💚

〽️ Mountain yoga retreat this summer ☀️
A unique haven in the backcountry of Colorado. An hour from Aspen, it is at the end of a windy dirt road and surrounded by breathtaking scenery.
The images here are of the cozy Snug Cabins, ideal for a solo traveler or a couple (yes, men are welcome on the retreat. And yes, there are already men signed up for the retreat. Bring your guy!)
There aren’t many mountain ranches that have kept the authentic Western style of an original outpost and been able to blend it with comfort and idyllic charm. This ranch does just that - plus, it ups it with a spacious pavilion for yoga, a cedar sauna, hot tub, and cold plunge.
Bonus! Be off-grid (no cel reception and minimal internet). A digital detox getaway to recharge the soul.
4-night Retreat JULY 28 - AUGUST 1, 2024

Hanging out on a Sunday morning under swaying palm trees, the balmy ocean breeze, and warm sand between the toes. This is how one becomes enamored with the beaches and being here 😍
We are excited for guests joining our new Yoga & Wellness Retreat in Costa Rica to experience this tropical paradise 🌴 Pura vida! 😎
a Costa Rican sunset. The real deal 😍
When you can sit on a beach with your feet in the sand and a warm ocean breeze, and watch this, it's a sweet reminder to not take the special moments in life for granted.
Have a beautiful weekend! ♡

An auspicious beginning to our Montana yoga retreat! 💫 A rare summer rain with a rainbow and today coming into beautiful blue sky. After the fires happening, what a bountiful blessing 🙏
Workin' it! Yoga is also a practice for pushing your edge. Greta's face says it all after the last plank at the end ... although I'm not sure if she was loving it or?!

This is the beautiful beach where we have our surfing lessons on our yoga & surfing retreat in Costa Rica 🌴
We are never too old to learn something new. Actually, to keep the brain in top shape, we need to stimulate it with learning. When we engage the body and mind in a new activity, like surfing - which requires focus, coordination, and being very present! - we get a boost of feeling accomplishment following the challenge and we stimulate neurons which form more neural pathways and allow electrical impulses to travel faster across them (so the neuroscience says).
And - it's just plain fun. Surf’s up! 🤙
🎥 video from our last retreat in February
Santa Teresa is a surf town located at one of the best surf spots in Costa Rica. Daily you see surfers heading to the beach on their motorbikes down a one-lane road with their boards across their bikes like this. If it's a long-boarder, extra head's up! - And have an awesome surf
