Glow Costa Rica Spiritual Vacation Retreat
April 25 – May 1, 2022
6 magical days and nights at Lapazul Retreat Center
I’m so excited about this event – our first international spiritual vacation retreat! It will undoubtedly be as magical as past retreats in Sedona and Kauai AND develop its own unique vibration infused with the energy of the diverse Costa Rican culture, foliage, and wildlife.
A common thread in all Glow retreats is they are held in locations with vortex energy that can be used to facilitate or accelerate personal and spiritual growth.
The testimonials you’ll hear from the Sedona and Kauai participants will give you a taste of what to expect at Glow Costa Rica.
– Jeanne Chvosta, Texas
What Makes This Retreat Unlike Any Other
You’ll Discover Universal Laws to Transform Your Life
Through multiple workshops taught by Connie Hertz, you’ll explore simple yet powerful Universal Laws that you can apply in daily life to create healthier relationships, better opportunities, and more of everything you’ve always dreamed of.
We Do Pretty Much All of Our Activities Outdoors
Workshops and activities are held outside at every opportunity. We surround ourselves with nature and breathtaking views to remove boundaries and perceived limitations. Aside from sleeping and bathroom breaks, you’ll be outside enjoying the tropical weather and spectacular scenery of Costa Rica.
We’re Hosted At a Retreat Resort – Not a Hotel
Lapazul Retreat Center is a luxurious experience where all of your needs will be taken care of. Unlike other retreats, this spiritual vacation space will be dedicated to our purposes alone and we will have the entire facility to ourselves. Lapazul was intentionally designed as a premier destination for rejuvenation, transformation, and relaxation.
This spiritual vacation retreat is for you if:
- You desire time to step back from the noise in your life and have time to simply BE
- You seek to be pampered with yoga, meditation, massage, energy work, and fresh, locally grown food
- The idea of being outside all day, enjoying warm ocean breezes, and exploring natural wonders exhilarates you
- You value being part of a community that feels like family
- You want a retreat that feels like a vacation… one where you leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated
This retreat may not be right for you if:
- You’d prefer to do your own thing rather than take part in group activities
- The Law of Attraction, energy work, and higher consciousness do not resonate with you
- You are comfortable where you are in life with no need to learn new things
- Personal or spiritual growth isn’t calling to you
– Elda Dorothy, Minnesota
Our Retreat Venue
Situated 1000 feet above sea level, Lapazul offers breathtaking 180-degree views of the ocean and is surrounded by lush tropical greenery. Costa Rica is a heavily protected rainforest country, teeming with wildlife and known for its beaches, volcanoes, and biodiversity. The peaceful surroundings create the ideal environment for an experiential spiritual vacation retreat.

Reviews From Glow Spiritual Vacation Retreat Participants
“THE best vacation I’ve ever had in my life…spiritual and healing. If you’re searching for something, this is probably the place you’re going to find it.”
-Chuck Martin, Missouri
“What an amazing opportunity…it blew away any expectations I had.”
– Denise Kolts, Alaska
“We have spent the last 7 days just soaking in all the beauty of Kauai…it’s absolute paradise here! The Universal Laws that Connie teaches us, everything from the Law of Attraction to the Law of Rhythm, it’s just been so enlightening to figure out that I do use them, every day.”
– Sue Martin, Missouri
Discover The Magic of Past Retreats
Connie has hosted Glow Spiritual Vacation Retreats in Kauai, Hawaii and Sedona, Arizona over the past decade. Each one is unique, drawing special energy and vibration from the collection of participants and the surrounding environment. Retreat attendees comment over and over about how fulfilling, rejuvenating, and inspirational their time has been. A key feature of Glow retreats is that nearly all activities are done outdoors to fully engage with the natural surroundings as you experience the vortex energies in all venues.
We invite you to explore past retreats and get a sensation of what lies ahead for you at the upcoming Glow Spiritual Vacation Retreat.
Kauai Retreats
2015 Glow Retreat Kauai
2016 Glow Retreat Kauai
Sedona Retreat
Sedona is an undeniably magical and spiritual land. Our retreat facility, Moondance, was situated at the base of Cathedral Rock, one of the top 3 vortex energies in the region. This energy was carried with us throughout the entire retreat during every activity, excursion, and experience. Everything we did utilized and was infused with the powerful vortex energy. It was common for participants to feel refreshed with a renewed sense of awareness.
I absolutely loved the beauty and serenity of the location. It is so easy to feel at peace and unwind while surrounded by pure nature.
The fellow travelers were so nice, warm and welcoming. An instant friendship deepened with each day. The self-work was enlightening. Even after I returned home I experienced lasting and improved mental and physical health.
Connie is an amazing host. She sees to all the details and makes the entire trip, from start to finish, awesome.
All I had to do was sign up and the rest fell into place.

Final Words of Wisdom From Connie
Imagine looking back on your life and realizing you didn’t achieve your dreams.
This is what happens to most people. They never took time off for themselves to get away from the daily to-do lists and constant distractions. They lost track of who they were and didn’t take steps to reconnect with themselves.
I created this retreat so you can have the space to simply BE present and have some fun. The spiritual knowledge and tools you’ll learn will help you feel more empowered to create the life you want, with clarity and intention. Surround yourself in an invigorating environment and a community of like-minded people to support your evolution.
If it’s your heart’s desire to spend some quality time with you, while being pampered in a tropical jungle wonderland, exploring off-the-beaten-path attractions, and growing personally and spiritually, then…
This is YOUR time to relax and rejuvenate!
