Soul Reset Retreat
Join Ashley Torrent and Kerry Higgins fora life-changing reset where the jungle meets the sea.
This is a week to remember what it feels like to be alive. A time to slow down, connect to nature, listen to your intuition, and let your soul breathe again.
New Dates TBA
Soul Reset is an invitation to come home to yourself, to remember that growth doesn’t have to be heavy, and that life itself can feel spacious, playful, and alive.
Soul Reset
Experience
Together we will explore:
-
The practice of going within and understanding the relationship between your heart and soul.
-
Whether you’ve surfed before or this is your first time getting in the water, you’ll have the opportunity to surf daily. The sea holds infinite healing power and has been shown to reduce impact of ptsd, anxiety and depression and aids as a vehicle to rewire and heal the nervous system. -
We will begin to understand the difference between thinking and feeling, and how to move from fear to love, confusion to clarity, and perfectionism to messy action.
-
Learning how to honor your sensitivity and use it as a source of wisdom and strength, rather than something to manage or hide.
-
Remembering when you numb your pain, you numb your joy. Together we create space for all of it, uncovering the wisdom in play, wonder and awe.
What you’ll be supported in:
Gently beginning to unravel unconscious patterns and limiting beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.
Creating space for curiosity, compassion, and self love.
Reconnecting with the parts of yourself you’ve been conditioned to reject through gentle shadow work and self-inquiry.
Stepping outside your comfort zone in a safe, supportive community.
Reconnecting to your creativity.
Beginning to cultivate a sense of safety and presence in your body.
Soul Reset is for you if:
you’re craving deeper connection. Not only with yourself, but the world around you.
Intuitively, you know there’s more to life than keeping up and getting by.
you’re exhausted by information overload. You’ve done the therapy, read the books, listened to the podcasts — but real change still feels out of reach.
your Soul longs to feel alive again.
You’re ready to listen to your intuition, to rekindle the fire within, and to trust the wisdom of your body.
you’re ready to move from the head
to the heart. Moving away from thinking to feeling, to living from a place of fear to one of love.you’re ready to begin living transformation. Ready to cultivate a practice for life that invites a holistic engagement with mind, body, heart,
and Spirit.
you’re ready for a reset. Not to start over, but to remember what has been inside you all along.
Meet your Hosts
Two therapists with backgrounds that complement each other and support your work.
Kerry and Ashley draw on modalities such as Internal Family Systems, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), mediumship, intuitive work, writing, and surf therapy.
Together, they bridge psychology and spirituality — blending years of experience with a devotion to embodied living.
-
Ashley is a psychospiritual counselor, intuitive medium, soul mentor, and writer whose offerings bridge the psychological and the sacred.
Her work is rooted in her own personal transformation and over twenty years of witnessing others in theirs.
She invites others into a living conversation between the human and the soul — a place where healing becomes less about fixing and more about remembering.
Ashley moved to Playa Grande in 2025 and lives there with her husband, two boys, and three dogs.
-
Kerry works as a psychotherapist, she brings a background in EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a love of creative writing and nature.
She was born and raised in NY and found herself healing with practices like somatic therapies and surfing after navigating major life events in her own personal life.
Her aim is to empower the people she gets to work with to cultivate deep self trust, expand their capacity for joy and heal their trauma.
Soulful Collaborators
We’re thrilled to be joined by two incredible women from Costa Rica who are enriching our retreat with their gifts and presence.
Their offerings weave the essence of this land into our week, through nourishing food, movement, cacao, and heartfelt connection.

Melissa grew up surrounded by the smell of fresh bread and the sound of sizzling pans in her mother’s and grandmothers’ kitchen in Costa Rica. They ran a bakery and a traditional soda that is the kind of place where food and love were always intertwined. From them, she learned that cooking is not just about recipes, but about care, generosity, and connection.
Years later, she decided to study Culinary Arts, following the same passion they passed down to her. Along her journey, she has traveled to more than 15 countries — from Thailand and India to Spain, France, and beyond — discovering flavors that opened her palate and inspired her creativity.
Through Tropical Soul Cuisine she brings all of that together: the warmth of her grandmothers’ kitchen, the essence of Costa Rican ingredients, and the inspiration of global flavors. Every dish she creates is an invitation to connect, to taste the world, to feel at home, and to celebrate the love that has always guided her cooking.

Marian is from Brasilito beach, Costa Rica and started her personal yoga practice in 2002. She has been a certified Yoga and Meditation teacher since 2012, and got her second training in 2020 focused on Trauma Informed Yoga.

She leads Cacao Ceremonies, she was initiated in the Mayan tradition of Guatemala and in her offerings she supports her work by integrating the costarican indigenous legacy of the Bribri and Chrotega nations and shamanic practices.
