Your quiet jungle abode!
Nestled in the valley next to the Chirripo River, at the foothills of Mount Chirripó, the Rio Chirripo offers the most spectacular views of the surrounding mountains! With it's beautiful gardens, outdoor pool, spa, luxurious rooms, and access to a river for morning swims, this place has everything to soothe and nourish the soul.YOGA
At JUNA, yoga is at the heart of all of our offerings, whether we are teaching an asana class, or leading a hike in the forest. We believe that the principles of yoga should be practiced beyond the mat, and transposed into our daily lives. That said, a body that has experienced the liberating benefits of a physical practice will undeniably be able to assimilate these teachings more profoundly and flow through life with more ease. This is why we have included 2 daily practices, including pranayama (breath exercises) and meditation on each day of the retreat. We know that when we feel good in our bodies, hearts and minds, the rest follows! Our certified JUNA yoga teachers will guide you through a variety of practices, allowing you to explore different teachings and techniques. They will also offer a variety of postures and accommodate all levels of experience.
COACHING
It isn’t everyday that we have the chance to connect and exchange with other women in remote retreat style settings. This week will be an incredible opportunity to do this, and to crack your shell open and share your thoughts, dreams, fears, and how you wish to align your life. Our female empowerment workshops are designed with core values in mind, and as a group, we will dive into how these values can inform our deepest desires and goals. These sessions offer a precious time to dig deep and unearth your fullest potential as you face realities of what it means to be a woman in 2020. Bring a journal and pen - wild colours welcome!
LOCAL CUISINE
All meals for this retreat will be prepared at the Rio Chirripo by their on-site kitchen team! Dishes consist of fresh, local, and organic ingredients arranged into deliciously healthy meals. Greens and herbs are grown on-site, and every day the chefs design a new menu for lunch and dinner, based on what are the best available ingredient options for that day.
Menus can be fully vegetarian or include local chicken or fish, per request.
Be sure to include any allergies, intolerances or food preferences (vegan, gluten free, lactose intolerant) in your booking form.
