8-Day Jungle Detox & Cleanse: Reset Your Body in Costa Rica

The Body Cleanse program at PachaMama is a structured eight-day detox that combines juice fasting with daily colon hydrotherapy sessions (referred to here as Colemas), a liver and gallbladder flush, movement classes, breathwork, and group sharing. The goal isn't just to flush toxins — it's to educate you on how your digestive system works and give you practical tools to keep the benefits going when you're back home. Guests receive lessons on the digestive system, diet, and nutrition, plus a personalized health consultation to help make the information actionable.

Days follow a tight timetable. Mornings begin with a glass of water and dry skin brushing before a 6:30am clinic meeting for lemon water and a noni shot, followed by a movement class at 6:45am. After that comes the first of two daily enemas, spaced around a rotation of organic juices — think fresh noni with coconut water, green power juices with spirulina, and orange shots with turmeric. Afternoon group meetings cover digestion topics and offer a chance to share experiences. Breathwork sessions happen on specific days to help release emotional blocks that often surface during a cleanse.

The liver and gallbladder flush takes place on day five, a dedicated session to clear accumulated toxins and bile. A day-five beach trip provides a break and a chance to swim and rest by the ocean. The community also screens a film on themes tied to the cleanse. Evenings wind down with a light cleansing soup, a silent meditation, and often a night session related to the day's work.

PachaMama itself is a 500-acre tropical dry rainforest that has been regenerated over 20-plus years. It's home to howler monkeys, colorful birds, and a river, and sits close to the ocean near San Juanillo and Nosara. The community runs on principles of ecological living, meditation, and emotional healing — there's no prescriptive belief system, just an environment designed for introspection. The facilitators, Omie and Gaya, have deep experience in health coaching and breathwork, and their presence is a big part of what holds the group together through the tougher days.
