Cleanse and renew your spirit by freeing the body of all that needs to be released. Organic Raw Vegan Fare of the best quality that Costa Rica has to offer is the main healing ingredient in this Life transitional program - 7 Nights in an all-inclusive program includes gentle Kundalini Yoga and sacred circulation meditation from Balinese Shaman.
Yoga is a very important part of the detox process because as toxins make their way out of the body you need to move and stretch the body to really release. The tissue will hold toxins and memories and stress from past events. As we do Yoga we go beyond these deposits and remove blocks. The blocks belong to your past, and not to your future. As you release these blocks through Yoga you will detox the body fully. Yoga is the key that is missing in most of the detox programs. In India Yoga is part of any cleansing and is an intricate part of Ayurveda - the wisdom of life and health.
Here at the Waterfall Villas, we teach a very gentle Yoga that can be extended for advanced practitioners. In the warm-up to a Kundalini Kriya, we will do mostly Vinyasa or Art of Living Yoga which is specific for detoxing the body and moving out blockages. Then we will work with a Kundalini Kriya to deepen our awareness of the body and bring a lot of oxygen to the blood with pranayamas. This way of doing Yoga is very effective and works for any level of practitioner.
In the traditional Balinese style, your shower opens up into your own walled tropical garden, where there is a goddess statue and a fish pond. Here you can sit in privacy on a dragonfly mosaic bench, enjoy the mystical, tropical birds, and feel the waterfall's energy while looking into a transparent tropical angelfish pond-aquarium for zen contemplation. Designed with authentic Feng Shui elements, this space is the closest to the rare vortex energy found whirling like a dervish between ancient trees that are home to Kinkajou and rare forest owls.
You will be accommodated at Waterfall Villas. There are two accommodation possibilities available, as private single rooms or private double rooms. For single participants, the accommodation will be in the Goddess Suite, while the double occupancy will be provided in the Jacuzzi Suite. Both suites are located in the Jade Spa Villa.
Secluded and serene, the Jade Spa Villa is reached by a staircase lit by Balinese lanterns. Protected like the most sacred temple and sheltered from the world by immense ancient trees that lean across the top of the waterfalls, this sacred space has been created for you to share a magical experience in the Baru Rainforest.
