WHAT IS THE CONSCIOUS RETREAT ABOUT?

A transformational and immersive creative laboratory & personal development retreat designed for the screen, stage and leadership industries. You'll have 5 days of training with activities and free time to enjoy Costa Rica in your own terms.

​

Participants will delve into a profound exploration of personal and professional growth. For these intensive retreat days, we'll deconstruct your limiting beliefs, reconstruct a mindset for heightened awareness, elevate consciousness, boost stamina, ignite creativity, enhance intuitive skills, and cultivate a state of flow. You'll learn easy and practical energy tools that will help you stay grounded, focused, and empowered in any situation on and off the set, the stage and life.

​

On the last day, each participant will present the creations they have been working on, for feedback and the appreciation of the other participants as the audience. Whether you come here to perfect a monologue, a speech, write poetry or a script, compose a new song, paint or take photos, perfect a choreography or simply let go of your energy blockages, the space will be yours to express yourself and/or hold space for others in their transformation. This is exactly where you'll be able to test your skills and get feedback from the other participants.

​

Before the in-person workshop, we'll kick off with a Zoom call to delve into your individual goals and intentions. Following the workshop, participants will benefit from access and discounts to additional Zoom  and in-person masterclasses, initiatives at the Cannes Film Festival and other Chi Energy workshops and events.

​

This is the most transformational retreat you'll find that is designed for the creative, film, Tv, stage & entertainment industries.

​

You will receive a certificate after completion of the workshop.
