Costa Rica Reflections

At La Ecovilla in Costa Rica, life unfolds in harmony with nature and community. Surrounded by rainforest, river, and mountains, this ecovillage offers a way of living rooted in regeneration, connection, and purpose. Each day is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the richness of Pura Vida through shared meals, mindful practices, and a community devoted to balance with the earth.

In Costa Rica’s lush rainforests and along its pristine shores, the principles of deep ecology come alive. Home to extraordinary biodiversity and rich Indigenous wisdom, this vibrant land invites us to recognize the sacred web of life that connects all beings. From regenerative practices to conservation leadership, Costa Rica offers not just beauty but a living model of harmony with the Earth and a call to honour and protect the planet we share.

As you enter this sacred living forest, you are soon struck by how much diversity surrounds you. On a 50-hectare piece of land, there may easily be more variety of tree species than all of Canada and the U.S. combined.

What began as a simple vacation to Costa Rica became a life-changing awakening. Beside the ancient rumble of a volcano, a deep memory of connection to Mother Earth stirred within me. In that moment I felt the power of the sacred feminine rising, calling us to restore balance, compassion, and truth in a world that longs for harmony.
