Awakening Awareness Retreat – Jill Foltz

Awakening Awareness is a seven-night spiritual retreat at Anamaya Resort in Montezuma, Costa Rica, led by holistic teacher Jill Foltz. It is written for people who feel they have been living on autopilot and want a week to slow down, pay attention, and reconnect with their intuition. Yoga, breathwork and meditation form the backbone of the days, and the setting on the Pacific coast gives plenty of room to rest.

What to Expect

Each day of this yoga and meditation retreat blends movement, breath and stillness with guided workshops. The workshop themes are intuition, energy and synchronicity, so the week is as much about learning to notice what is already happening in your life as it is about practice on the mat.

The schedule leaves space on purpose. Between sessions you can spend time at the infinity pool, book optional spa treatments, or head out on jungle excursions. Anamaya describes its retreats as ones you can shape to your own needs, so you can take part in the classes and workshops, or simply enjoy the meals, the spa and wellness services, and long stretches of rest in a hammock or by the pool.

About Jill Foltz

Jill Foltz is a holistic teacher who guides this week. Her approach brings together yoga, breathwork and meditation with an interest in intuition, energy and synchronicity, and those threads run through the daily workshops she leads at Anamaya.

The Setting

Anamaya Resort sits in Montezuma, on the Pacific side of Costa Rica's Puntarenas region, in a Blue Zone overlooking the ocean. It has been named one of National Geographic's World's Best Wellness Destinations for 2026. The resort offers healthy, delicious meals, spa and wellness services, an infinity pool, and excursions into the surrounding jungle and coast.

Guests choose their room according to the size of their party or their budget, so you can come on your own or with someone else. The stay covers seven nights.

Before You Go

Nothing in the retreat calls for previous experience, and the week is built so you can join in as much or as little as feels right. Come ready to practice yoga, breathe, sit in meditation, and give yourself a week without the usual momentum. Comfortable clothing for movement, swimwear for the pool, and shoes suited to jungle walks will serve you well.
