Re-Membering Your Original Brilliance

“If one completes the journey to one’s own heart, one will find oneself in the heart of everyone else.”

Welcome to this transformative and revolutionary retreat

Journey to the Heart: Re-membering Your Original Brilliance

This is an invitation to slow down, turn inward, and reconnect with the essence of who you have always been. Through guided reflection, embodied practices, and gentle inquiry, this retreat creates a sacred space to soften the layers of conditioning and remember the wisdom, creativity, and light that live at your core. This is not about becoming someone new, but about re-membering—bringing back together—the parts of yourself that know how to listen, trust, and shine. Come as you are, and leave more fully at home within yourself.

Why this journey matters right now?

Because we are overstimulated and under-connected.

Constant noise pulls you away from yourself, returning to the heart restores inner coherence and calm.

Because in a divided and distracted world, living from the heart is essential.

In a world filled with distraction and division, it’s easy to become reactive and disconnected from ourselves and others. Living from the heart means choosing empathy, courage, and intentional connection, helping us stay grounded while bringing more compassion into the world.

Because uncertainty calls for inner authority.

In a rapidly changing world, the heart becomes a reliable compass for clarity, intuition, and wise action.

Because many have learned to dim themselves to survive.

This journey gently reunites lost or silenced parts within you, allowing authenticity and vitality to re-emerge.

Because re-membering is an act of healing.

Bringing scattered parts back together restores vitality and aliveness. It’s a reclamation of light, creativity, and wisdom that already live within.

Because embodied presence is medicine — for self and for the world.

When we live from the heart, we naturally contribute grounded compassion, integrity, and conscious connection.

Where?

Neckargemünd (near Heidelberg)!

Amongst breathtaking nature and only 10 kilometers away from the fairy tale town of Heidelberg!

Heidelberg is a timeless, storybook town nestled along the Neckar River in southwestern Germany, where history, romance, and learning meet.

Known for its red-roofed Old Town and the majestic ruins of Heidelberg Castle perched above it, the city carries a gentle, poetic atmosphere shaped by centuries of art, philosophy, and scholarship.

Home to Germany’s oldest university, Heidelberg has long attracted thinkers, writers, and seekers, giving it a youthful, intellectual pulse alongside its deep historical roots.

Cobblestone streets, riverside walks, forested hills, and sun-washed cafés create a feeling that is both lively and contemplative—a place where beauty invites reflection and the past feels lovingly present in the now.

testimonials for Isabel Maria Costa

"For me, this Journey to the Heart was another step towards self-knowledge. Becoming aware of what makes us happy and what can block that state are topics that always interest me. The exercises facilitate this awareness and the sharing is always very enriching. The field of emotions is so vast and deep that we need experienced guides to explore it. And I found the relationship between emotions and our behaviors and our bodies very interesting. I thank Isabel and the other participants for this beautiful journey."

~ Ana T. Oliveira

"With this course, Isabel, with all her wisdom, opens the path to happiness for us. A beautiful path to self-knowledge and compassion for other human beings. Through simple and very practical exercises, this course reminded me that happiness is within me, depending on me, that it needs to be practiced, and that I have to be attentive to the Now. The course was well balanced between theory and practice, and the sharing of each participant's experiences made this online course very special. I am grateful to have participated in these weekly meetings with very dear people."

~ Sylvia 

“Attending this course reminded me how important I am. It helped me identify limiting patterns and beliefs and become aware of how to overcome the self-sabotage I often fall into. I met other women who, despite the distance, opened up in deep sharing, often expressing my own feelings.

I am grateful to Isabel for the opportunity, the knowledge, and the love 💖”

~ M Clara Saiago
