Ancient and Modern Wellness
You might already know a thing or two about the wellness practices from South America. But how many of them have you tried? From cacao ceremonies and ancient dance practices to authentic Ayahuasca retreats (best practised with a Shaman), South America, the mother of well-being, invites you to explore your health on a whole other level. The instructors, practitioners and nutritionists are unique. Many of them have studied under South American medicine men and women and locals who know all the secrets about health and healing. You can’t get any closer to authentic wellness than this.
Food as Medicine
With plant-based food and herbal medicine, you have a unique opportunity to cleanse your body in the most natural environment. There are so many plants and herbs that can’t be found, or accessed, in any other part of the world. Here, you have the opportunity to experience nature’s healing powers. Many travel to South America to improve their health but also to get educated on healthy living. Find out how to truly take care of your organs, detoxify your body and how food affects every aspect of your life. There will be plenty of time to learn about food, through cooking classes and on personalized “medicine hikes.”
Mind and Body Challenge
We are all made of energy and the energy that is stored in your mind and body needs to move. By exercising, practicing mindfulness and being in nature, you renew your energy flow. This helps you get rid of old energy and refuel with new. Challenging yourself on one of the intense hikes in South America may seem difficult at first, but you will be glad you did it. A silent retreat, or a meditation, is a different type of challenge, and so is a detox. Doing something out of the ordinary is always difficult for the brain to grasp at first. But the benefits from all these activities are priceless.
