8 Day Body Cleanse and Detox Wellness Retreat in a Costa Rican Eco Community

The Body Cleanse Retreat at PachaMama is an intensive 8-day detoxification program designed to purify the body, mind, and spirit. The retreat is rooted in the philosophy that true wellness comes from eliminating toxins—both physical and emotional—and reconnecting with your natural state of harmony. Combining the ancient practices of juice fasting, colon cleansing, and breathwork with modern insights into nutrition, this retreat offers a comprehensive approach to health and rejuvenation.

Each day follows a carefully structured schedule that begins early with a glass of water and dry skin brushing, followed by a movement class to get the body's energy flowing. Throughout the day, you'll consume a series of specially crafted organic juices made from locally grown fruits, vegetables, and medicinal plants, each serving a distinct purpose in your cleanse. Morning and afternoon Colemas sessions help to remove waste and toxic build-up from the large intestine, while breathwork and group sharing sessions facilitate emotional release and mental clarity.

The retreat experience is deepened with educational group meetings on the digestive system, diet, and nutrition, personalized health consultations, and a dedicated liver and gallbladder flush mid-week. A beach trip on day five offers a beautiful opportunity to restore at the Pacific Ocean, and a film screening on related themes enriches your understanding of the detox process. As the cleanse progresses, you'll engage in daily meditation to cultivate inner peace and conscious movement practices like yoga and free dance to support your body's release.

Instructors Omie and Gaya bring a wealth of experience and a deeply personal passion for holistic health. Omie, a health coach and drama therapist, shares his journey of overcoming misdiagnosis and medication to find healing through nature and nutrition. Gaya, a health coach, breathwork practitioner, and yoga teacher with 25 years of living in PachaMama, offers profound insights into the body's processes. Their combined expertise ensures that every participant feels supported, educated, and empowered throughout their transformation.
