A Fresh Perspective on Stress Relief
Stress and burnout are increasingly common realities of modern living. Layne Balke, founder and author, understands this challenge personally. His journey from a fast-paced professional life to a peaceful existence in Costa Rica inspired both his book and his company. Costa Rica’s slower pace, connection to nature, and community-driven culture offered the clarity and healing he sought , and became the cornerstone of his message.
In his book series, Balke writes, “This series is about you , and the life you’ve always wanted. What would happen if you committed to a bold new goal? What if you gave yourself permission to dream and then followed through?” These words encapsulate the mission behind Get Me to Costa Rica! , helping others reconnect with purpose and rediscover joy in simplicity.
