Overview
Rooted in Zen Retreat | Little Corn Island, Nicaragua – April 8–12, 2026
What if your body isn’t broken; just stuck in survival mode?
You’re doing all the “right” things…Trying to rest, trying to slow down, trying to feel better.
But you still feel:
Wired but exhausted
Overstimulated and overwhelmed
Disconnected from your body
Stuck in cycles of stress you can’t seem to break
That’s not a lack of effort. It’s a nervous system that hasn’t felt safe in a long time.
This is where that begins to change.
This retreat isn’t about escaping your life for a few days. It’s about learning how to come back to your body in a way that actually lasts.
Learn from Someone Who Has Lived This Work
Alyssa, founder of Rooted in Zen, didn’t arrive at this work through trends or theory.
Her approach was built through over 20 years of navigating chronic illness, searching for real answers when conventional paths fell short.
Through that journey, she developed a deeply grounded method combining:
Nervous system regulation
Breathwork + mindful movement
Herbal and lifestyle-based healing
Practical tools for everyday balance
Now, she guides others through the same process; helping you move out of survival mode and into a more regulated, supported state.
