Metamorphosis
jungle retreat
June 19 - 24, 2025
Welcome to the jungle…
Are you ready to step into your excellence?!
This isn’t just a retreat—it’s your launchpad to reclaim your power, ignite your purpose, and elevate every aspect of your life. Picture yourself shedding the weight of what no longer serves you, immersing yourself in the vibrant energy of the Costa Rican jungle, and stepping into the bold, unstoppable YOU that’s been waiting to emerge.
Over these transformative days, we’ll harness the power of the four elements—Earth, Air, Fire, and Water—to reconnect you with your highest self. Ground yourself in earthy rituals that restore clarity, release what’s holding you back in fiery ceremonies, gain new perspectives through breathwork, and cleanse your soul with water’s purifying energy.
Every moment is designed to help you get real with yourself, release the old, and step into a life of alignment, purpose, and excellence. This is your chance to leave behind mediocrity and create the extraordinary.
Are you ready to step into the jungle, rise to your potential, and design the life you deserve? Your soul is ready for this transformation—let’s make it happen!
YOU’re going to leave this retreat with:
A renewed sense of excellence and purpose, ready to design a life that’s unapologetically aligned with your vision and values.
The confidence to take bold, powerful steps toward the life you’ve always deserved, grounded in your authentic truth.
A heart that feels whole, a mind that’s sharp and clear, a body alive with energy, and a soul lit with purpose.
A sense of overflowing abundance, ready to give and lead from a place of fullness and empowerment.
A deeper connection to your true self—lighter, freer, and fully in tune with who you are and who you’re becoming.
A transformation that lasts. You’re leaving the jungle not just changed, but elevated and ready to thrive.
Whether you’re ready to take massive action in your business, step into alignment with your soul’s highest calling, or simply create a life that’s extraordinary, your Metamorphosis is waiting for you.
This is your moment to rise. Claim it now.

AURIC BLACKWOOD
AURIC BLACKWOOD
You know me as Tox Josh…
But now, let me reintroduce myself: I’m Auric Blackwood. After years of being celebrated as one of the Top 100 Injectors in the U.S., working with the biggest brands in the aesthetics industry, and building a thriving career, I hit a breaking point. Burnout, disconnection, and the constant chase for external validation left me questioning everything.
So, I did what felt impossible—I walked away. Not just from aesthetics, but from the life I thought I was supposed to live. I tore down every facade, dug deep, and rediscovered who I truly am. Part of that transformation was even letting go of my old name, “Tox Josh,” to fully embrace my new identity as Auric Blackwood—a name that reflects the authenticity, alignment, and power I’ve reclaimed.
My journey has been one of resilience and reinvention. After years of battling burnout and feeling boxed in by societal standards of success, I made the courageous decision to redesign not only my business but my entire life. The result? The Metamorphosis Société—a life and business coaching platform that empowers you to break free from limitations, rebuild your life, and craft a business that aligns with your authentic self.
I know transformation isn’t easy—I’ve lived it. But I also know it’s worth every step. Through bold coaching programs, transformative retreats like my Metamorphosis Jungle Retreat, and empowering aesthetic training, I’m here to help you shed what’s been holding you back and step fully into your power.
I bring my expertise from the aesthetics world into this new space, where transformation isn’t just about what’s on the outside—it’s about nurturing your inner spirit while building a life that reflects your highest self. My coaching is rooted in a “Creation Over Competition” mindset, helping you transcend comparison and focus on building your dreams.
This is your invitation to align your life with your values, unlock your highest potential, and create the life you deserve—boldly, authentically, and unapologetically.
This is transformation redefined. This is Auric Blackwood. Let’s rise together.
I know you’re a giver, a business owner, someone who holds space for others. You deserve to let go, unwind, and finally RECEIVE. Let us help you release and recharge along the way. During your stay, we’ll take care of everything—just rest, relax, and breathe.
FAQ’s
-
Item descriptionThis isn’t just a getaway—it’s a journey for those who are truly committed to transformation. I’m keeping this retreat exclusive to people who are serious about diving deep, doing the inner work, and embracing real change. Yes, we’ll have an incredible time, and there will be plenty of fun, but Metamorphosis is about more than that. The application process helps me connect with those who are ready to go beyond the surface and make this journey count. If you’re ready for true transformation—not just a party trip—then this is for you!

Spouses are absolutely welcome to join! They’re invited to participate in all activities, though they can choose whether or not to join the coaching sessions. Please note that spouses will be charged the full retreat price. However, this experience is designed for adults, so children are not permitted on this retreat.
-
Honey, if you’re here, you’re ALL IN! Of course, the coaching sessions are mandatory—this isn’t a vacation from transformation! You came to shake things up, dig deep, and step into your most fabulous self, so don’t even think about skipping. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself later!

International Airfare to and from SJO International Airport IS NOT included within the price. You are in charge of booking your own international airfare.
Once you've arrived to SJO we have arranged a private plane charter to take guests to the retreat center, this domestic flight is included in the stated price.
-
No, this is a sober retreat, so no drugs or alcohol are allowed on campus. However, we’ll have a chance to venture into the nearby beach town, where you can enjoy a cocktail if you wish. That said, Tox Josh encourages you to embrace a clear mind and open spirit while you’re here—alcohol can dull your inner glow and limit the deep transformation you’re here to experience. Think of this as a chance to elevate, connect, and truly vibe with your highest self!

HELL YES!
