The Good Chi Retreat


Join Shira Brenner and Eddie Madden, for an unforgettably magical, life giving week of nature immersion in Playa Maderas, Nicaragua, where we will bask in delight of some of the best beaches in the world, fall asleep to the sound of waves rolling in, eat fish tacos, and unplug from the hustle and bustle of working life. The whole vibe is back to nature; Tune in, align with the magic of the quantum field, and restore the well of energy within.


Our retreat schedule includes daily Kundalini, Vinyasa, or Buti yoga, led by Shira, and Chi Gong, Spiritual Practice, & Meditation led by Eddie. Nicaraguan meals of organic delectable cuisine, beach play & relaxation, surf lessons from expert instructors (beginners welcome!), monkeying around, making lifelong friendships, and of course, plenty of time to do you and fill your cup. This trip will be all about embracing life, rediscovering your joy, and celebrating the moment.


I can’t wait to go on this amazing back to nature adventure with you.


Remember, everything is always optional, so if you'd rather lay in the sun all day and drink Pina Coladas out of a coconut, do it up!

ABOUT
Verdad Nicaragua
boutique hotel & retreat

Enjoy stunning views, and the sound of waves crashing on the shore from architecturally designed casitas with private decks overlooking the ocean, and rooms nestled poolside overlooking the Verdad gardens and the sea. Beautifully landscaped pathways link each of our accommodations to our gorgeous open-air yoga and fitness studio, our pool and honor bar with expansive views of the ocean and surrounding tropical forest, and our comfortable lounge area where you’ll find ample space to relax, play a board game, or enjoy a sunset cocktail.  

 

We built Verdad Nicaragua with an eye toward creating spaces that allow you to take in the stunning beauty of this extraordinary hillside in laid-back luxury.  You can expect all the comfort, quality and excellence of a high-end resort, but without formality. Because we are a small boutique hotel with just five casitas and two rooms, you are able to personally connect with us during your stay. Verdad is your extraordinary home away from home, a hidden gem on the untouched coast of the Southern Pacific.

 

Because we care deeply about the environmental impact we make running our hotel, Verdad is also eco-conscious and off the grid. Our drinking water is carbon filtered and our electricity is 100% solar powered.

Rooms are shared with one queen and one twin bed. Yes, you can room with your friend or partner! Views are gorgeous. Sleep is deep here, though you may here a howler monkey once or twice. :)
