A 7-day women's retreat in Costa Rica for those ready to release the weight of old pain and come home to inner safety.
Feb 1-7, 2026
In a Few Words...
When you've lived through years of emotional stress, abuse, or neglect, forgiveness can feel impossible. You may have tried therapy, spiritual work, or positive thinking — but your body still holds the past. Forgiveness isn't about excusing what happened. It's about freeing yourself from the energetic hold of pain so you can live with ease, clarity, and peace.
Forgiveness is a sacred journey to reclaim all parts of yourself that you had to deny just to survive.
During this 7-day retreat, you'll be guided through a gentle, yet profound process to first create deep safety in your body so you can meet what's been buried without overwhelm. This will prepare you to release the old survival patterns — the constant alertness, guilt, or self-blame—and then experience forgiveness in your body — as a felt sense of freedom in your nervous system. This naturally reconnects you to your wholeness — the part of you untouched by trauma.
Forgiveness becomes natural when your body finally feels safe enough to let go.
You'll leave not only lighter, but also rooted in a new baseline of calm, connection, and self-trust. If your heart has been whispering, "I'm tired of carrying this," this retreat is your invitation to set it down — gently, completely, and for good.
If You've Already Tried...
X Praying for forgiveness but still feel resentment
X Meditation to "let go" but the hurt keeps coming back
X Forcing yourself to forgive but feeling fake inside
X Self-help books on forgiveness that didn't stick
X Therapy focused on forgiveness, but you are still triggered by the same people.
The Truth? There is nothing wrong with you still feeling all of the above. Everything you've experienced is stored in your body; your nervous system and your energy body. Forgiveness is a journey that you move through at the pace of your body.
Is This YOU Right Now?
✔ Still Carrying Old Wounds - Despite all your prayer and meditation, you feel the sting from past hurts. The forgiveness everyone talks about feels impossible to reach.
✔ Trapped in Toxic Family Dynamics - You're caught in patterns with your adult children, spouse, siblings, or parents that are slowly eroding your soul. You're done pretending it's fine.
✔ Emotionally Exhausted From Trying - You've spent years attempting to heal, trying different methods, overthinking, and silencing your truth. Now you're drained from the inside out.
✔ Fighting the Same Battles - Despite all your spiritual work, you still lose your temper, hold grudges, and find yourself judging the people who hurt you.
✔ Feeling like a Spiritual Failure - You know all the "right" things about forgiveness, but you can't seem to actually do it. You're tired of feeling like you're failing at something everyone else seems to master.
✔ Afraid to Trust Again - Part of you resists forgiving because you're terrified of getting hurt again. You want to control and protect yourself, but you don't realize it's keeping you stuck.
What Makes This Different From
Everything You've Tried
The Root Healing Method™
You've probably prayed, meditated, journaled, tried to "let go" — and yet, the pain still lives in your body. That's because you can't think or wish your way out of stored trauma. This retreat will gently help you reach the places inside you that talking, thinking, or meditating has not been able to touch — so real forgiveness can finally happen from within.
Seeing the Whole Picture — Not Just the Pain
You'll begin to understand the deeper patterns that shaped your life — not as self-blame but as clarity. You'll see how your body, mind, and energy have been trying to protect you, even through the most painful experiences. And when you understand the bigger picture, you can finally stop carrying what was never yours.
Releasing What's Not Yours
You'll discover the invisible emotional imprints left by others — the guilt, shame, or fear that got absorbed into your body. Together, we'll release the patterns safely, so your system can remember what peace and safely feels like again.
Radical Compassion and Truth
This isn't about spiritual bypassing or pretending you're over it. It's about gently meeting the parts of you that are still hurting — the anger, grief, fear — and letting them be seen, held, and transformed.
Freedom from Old Soul Ties
We'll explore the energetic connections that keep you entangled with people or memories that continue to drain you. Not to re-live the past, but to liberate yourself from it — consciously, lovingly, completely.
This isn't "Forgive and Forget". This is forgiveness that happens naturally when your body and heart are ready. It's not about letting anyone off the hook — it's about finally getting yourself unhooked.
Your Transformation: What Forgiveness
Makes Possible
Where You Are Now:
Spiritually Frustrated - You've prayed, meditated, journaled, yet the resentment still lives in your body
Energetically Drained - Old wounds take up space and energy that no amount of "letting go" seems to free
Relationship Chaos - Toxic patterns keep looping with family members, partners, or friends
Resentment & Resistance - Afraid that forgiving means getting hurt again, you keep your guard up - and your heart closed.
Where You'll Be After 7 Days:
✅Inner Sanctuary
Forgiveness clears the noise so you can finally rest inside a sacred inner refuge - a place you return to for answers, inspiration, and deep restoration.
✅Honoring Your Past Hurts
Forgiveness lets you see every experience - even the painful ones - as part of your becoming. You now hold compassion for yourself and for those who unknowingly played a role in your healing.
✅Feeling Whole
When forgiveness closes the old wounds, you feel full, warm, and at peace. You trust yourself again because you've tapped into your true healing power.
✅Emotionally FREE
Forgiveness frees you from carrying what isn't yours while giving you the courage to fully own what is. Your mind is calm. Your heart is clear. You feel safe inside yourself.
✅In Flow and Congruent
Forgiveness removes the inner conflict, so life feels lighter. You stop second guessing and start living with ease, intuition, and energy.
✅Changing the Dance
Forgiveness untangles the toxic patterns in your relationships. You can express yourself without guilt, feel without shame, and ask for what you need with clarity and self-respect.

What Our Clients Say (After Trying Everything Else)
My Journey of Forgiveness & Self-discovery
"For years, I was gripped by feelings of intense anger and frustration towards my mother. I found her nature to be unacceptable, often wishing she could be more like the mothers of my friends. I was convinced she was to be blamed for not protecting me. I didn't feel safe being around her and carried a heavy burden of guilt and resentment.
After 7–8 years of talk therapy with very little improvement, I finally found deeper healing work with Meena Puri. Through her work, Meena helped me unpack a lot of those issues I had with my mother. The real turning point came when I was able to look inward and saw that the very traits I resented in my mother were also a part of me 😑
At that moment of deep realization, it hit me: my anger wasn't with my mother, it was with myself. That rage shattered instantly, and I felt a profound sense of love and forgiveness ♥️
Thank you Meena for providing the safe container and insightful guidance due to which I am finally experiencing a peaceful relationship with my mother that I had longed for years." Ritu A.
"I was so angry with my husband and didn't realize how I was contributing to my own experiences. When you taught me how to look at the bigger picture and the energies behind it, it was like a new day. And the guided healing practices always left me feeling light and resolved. Thank you so much." Heidi S.
"After years of praying for forgiveness and getting nowhere, I thought I was hopeless. Meena's approach showed me the energetic contracts I had with my ex-husband that kept us both stuck. Breaking those patterns changed everything. " Lisa R.
"I had tried therapy, meditation retreats, even energy healing sessions. Nothing touched the deep resentment I carried towards my mother. Working with Meena didn't just help me forgive - it helped me understand why I chose this relationship at a soul level. Now I can love her AND protect my energy." Jeanie S.
"I thought I had forgiven and, being a Christian, I believe in forgiveness. But I really hadn't, as I discovered in my work with Meena Puri. The anger I was carrying about everything I endured in my childhood beneath the surface was making me physically ill. To experience forgiveness in my body was at a whole new level. I didn't have to pretend. I never felt so light, free, and happy, not to mention physically healthier and full of hope. I can't thank you enough. You have been a blessing in my life." Jeremy J.
"The retreat was a beautiful experience. Being in a space that allows silence from the outer world and then allows me to experience the silence in my inner world. The importance of actually creating time and space for doing the inner work can't be overemphasized. Being away from the day to day of my life and being in the environment of retreat and in nature and being with others on the same path and same intention to heal, and having a teacher like Meena Puri who is passionate about supporting others to heal and evolve - all of this contributed to my learning and healing during the 3 days. The retreat center is beautiful and peaceful. The meals are out of this world. I am grateful for this experience and for taking the time to be here. Thank you Meena. This experience made me committed to attend future retreats and to continue to do my inner work, self love and heal." Tejinder G.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: I've tried so many things that didn't work. How do I know this will be different?
A: The Root Healing Method™ works at the energetic level where your soul contracts and imprints live - deeper than prayer, meditation, or traditional therapy can reach. We're not trying to convince your mind to forgive; we're shifting the energetic patterns that keep you stuck. The women who see the biggest transformations are exactly like you - they've tried everything else first.
Q2: What if I am not ready to face the really painful stuff?
A: Your psyche has a built-in safety system. It won’t bring up anything you’re not ready for. If something arises, it’s because you ARE ready - and you won't be facing it alone. You'll be guided with gentleness, and held in complete safety. The difference is, we're not avoiding the pain - we're transforming it at the energetic level.
Q3: I'm nervous about sharing in a group. What if I freeze up?
A: You never have to share anything you don't want to. This is your individual journey held within a group container. Many women find that witnessing others' breakthroughs actually accelerates their own transformation - but only if it feels right for you.
Q4: How do I get there?
A: Fly to San José, Costa Rica (SJO). Once you're confirmed, I'll personally guide you through everything - flights, packing, insurance, cash needs. The retreat team will meet you at the airport with snacks, water, and a warm welcome. You'll be cared for the moment you land.
Q5: Do you offer payment plans?
A: Yes. I offer flexible payment plans for women who feel called to this work. Once you're ready to reserve your spot, you will see the payment plan that honors both your commitment and you peace of mind.
