Yoga
Each morning before breakfast (except on arrival and departure days) we will practice yoga and meditation usually from 07.45 to 09.15 and some afternoons, on a 64-square metre teak platform with the sounds of birds and monkeys as a symphonic background.
The lodge is a truly spiritual haven and the location is a serene and secluded environment in which to relax and renew, in an extraordinary slice of the lush Costa Rican dry tropical rain forest. Your time here will rejuvenate you physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
“Here you can experience a healthy and fulfilling connection with nature. The jungle has a healing and centering energy force which affords practitioners an unforgettable, deep level of communion with mother nature while they practice yoga each day.”
“Lucy led us in traditional yoga postures and flows, on the covered jungle shala platform, with the birdsong and howler monkeys talking to each other and hummingbirds flitting about.”
Holistic Treatments
Holistic treatments are a major feature of Sunflower Retreats' path to wellness and complement the yoga we practice. We have a wide range of treatments, as in a spa, but we differ in that we use only natural, organic products and take a holistic approach in our sessions.
A brochure describing these relaxing, healing and rejuvenating therapies will be given to you when you arrive and you can book them with our own qualified practitioner each day at breakfast-time, when they are available to discuss each treatment and help you to choose the perfect one for your own requirements.
Our range of holistic therapies includes:
Holistic and Ayurvedic Massages
Sunflower Retreats' Ultimate Healing Treatment
Bamboo massage
Reflexology
Aromatherapy using pure essential oils
Chakra balancing
Reiki and Smudging sessions
Sunflower's original freshly picked organic Aloe Vera skin facials
The Bars
Treatments are conducted in a warm, safe, healing environment in a purpose built treatment shala on the resort surrounded by the sounds and beauty of nature.
Prices range from $30 to $100 per session, depending on your choice of treatment and duration. They are available every day except the arrival and departure day.
“A week of one-on-one yoga and fabulous luxurious treatments in the jungle was just what I needed.”
