Luminous Hearts
Our greatest pleasure is to announce AVES RESORT will be the newest location for the Luminous Heart Institute teacher training in Costa Rica.
Aves is a newly built Yoga & Meditation Retreat Center in Montezuma overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
On our first visit, we were moved by a 200+ year-old grandmother Pachote Tree, which the resort is centered around. Anchored by this mighty endangered tree, the life force on this land was palpable from the moment we walked onto the property.
We are excited to share this experience with you through the Luminous Heart Institute sacred teaching container.
