Costa Rica Retreat
Recover From Emotional Eating & People Pleasing By Finding Safety Within
This immersive weeklong retreat at Blue Spirit Costa Rica explores how to move past fawning (people-pleasing) and into honest expression, as well as how to use food as an ally through stress and trauma recovery.
The week will integrate movement, sound, demos, group practices, and lectures with plenty of free time to enjoy the resort and its beautiful surroundings. Great for couples, individuals, and practitioners looking for a deeper dive into somatics and nutrition.
Fawning & Nutrition
Fawning is the automatic people-pleasing response where we say and do the opposite of what we really feel or need.
Living a life of fawning can result in stomach issues, the inability to self express, broken boundaries, and even binge eating to soothe yourself from the stress of endless people-pleasing.
In this retreat, Luis will integrate somatic psychology and nutrition to holistically address how stressful and traumatic life events show up in our bodies, our food habits, and our behaviors — and what we can do about it.
Explore Holistic Healing…Together
This retreat, which is just weeks before Luis’ first book — Food Therapy — hits the shelves, is a unique blend of workshops that will teach you how to better relate to yourself through practical somatic techniques, food education, and group somatic ceremonies.
