salvatierra wellness retreat

threshold: a new year’s retreat

Playa Coyote, Costa Rica | December 28th, 2026-January 2nd, 2027

At the edge of the year, we pause. Not to rush into resolutions.Not to force clarity. Not to push ourselves forward. But to listen.

Winter is not a season of performance. It is a season of gestation. Of quiet truth. Of the unseen roots strengthening beneath the surface. THRESHOLD is an immersive New Year’s retreat devoted to that sacred in-between - the space where what has been begins to loosen, and what is becoming quietly takes form.

Together, we gather on the beaches of Costa Rica to honor this turning point with intention, embodiment, and nervous-system restoration. This is not a productivity reset. It is a return to inner alignment.

Hosted and facilitated by Sonali Krish, LPC-A, ERYT-500, founder of Sona Shala, and Kiana Ochoa, visionary facilitator and embodiment guide, this retreat weaves somatic grounding, vision work, ritual, neuroplasticity, and creative expression into a container that is both activating and deeply restorative.

Through movement, meditation, reflective inquiry, cacao, dance, and guided integration practices, we will:

  • Close the previous year with reverence and discernment

  • Identify inherited patterns and samskaras ready to soften

  • Reconnect with the body as the site of intuition and wisdom

  • Clarify vision through grounded nervous-system regulation

  • Cross the New Year threshold in community - embodied, steady, and awake

No prior yoga or meditation experience is required.
This retreat is open to anyone ready to meet the next year from alignment rather than urgency.
