Activities
Yoga and hikes
Cleansing and detoxing are all about movement. You're moving harmful stuff outside of your bodies, and moving helpful stuff inside. What better way to support that movement than with the movement of yoga and nature hikes.
The yoga you'll be practicing will be primarily focused on supporting the organs and the gut. Gentle movement for detoxing.
Gratitude ceremony with First Nation Q'ero Paco
The Q'ero Nation people are renowned worldwide for their spiritual energetic ceremonies. They've been called Masters of Living Energy. Pacha Munay Wellness Resort work with Pacos (priests) of the highest integrity.
These ceremonies are especially beautiful because they are based on gratitude. They are called "despachos," or "pagos" as in payments to mother earth (Pacha Mama) and all she selflessly offers.
These energetic ceremonies are a powerful way to set intentions for your healing, offer gratitude to life, and to pray for your deepest aspirations.
Daily guided meditation
Meditation is key to mental and spiritual wellbeing. The guided meditation focuses on you becoming intimately acquainted with your mind, and your thoughts. This practice allows you to understand that you are not your thoughts, and that believing your thoughts is the primary cause of suffering.
Once you are intimately acquainted with your thoughts, and how your mind works, you'll experience a new kind of freedom, available to you always.
Daily guided journaling
Journaling is a powerful tool to give a voice and name to concerns, stress, trauma, and other issues you could be unconsciously harboring.
Journaling is a subtle yet effective way of bringing consciousness to aspects of your life that need your attention, love, and most importantly forgiveness.
Daily infrared sauna
Infrared saunas work by directly heating your body, and not so much the air around you, which makes the experience more comfortable and more effective than other kinds of saunas. Benefits of infrared saunas include: better sleep, relaxation, detoxification, weight loss, relief from sore muscles, relief from joint pain such as arthritis, clear and tighter skin, improved circulation.

Instructors
Roberto Laurens
Roberto's wellness journey began in his early 20s when he was diagnosed with gallstones in his gallbladder. Knowing in his heart that there was another way besides what the doctors were telling him, he began the process of healing naturally with liver and gallbladder cleanses. It was during this pivotal time that he began exploring his spirituality. Personal growth became his main focus for the decade that followed. He studied mysticism at Hampshire College, completed the Landmark curriculum of self-development, and spent 4 years in the Amazon and Andes mountains of Peru learning from healers.
Sarah Taylor
Being passionate about health and wellness, and always interested in spirituality, Sarah instantly fell in love with yoga from day one. She immediately developed a deep passion and commitment to her personal practice, and found teachers who helped her grow beyond where she thought she could go. Sarah went on to get her 200-hour certification in Baja, Mexico, under Christopher Perkins. Upon returning, Sarah went directly into teaching yoga full time. After a year and a half of teaching, she travelled to Rimini, Italy, to study under Timea Vitez, studying the more spiritual aspects of yoga.
Location
The Sacred Valley, Cusco, Peru
It's not happenstance that this place is called sacred. The whole region of Cusco really has a mystical feel to it. The moment you step out from the airport, you'll feel the energy here is special. Even though there's hustle and bustle as you drive through the city on your way to the valley, you'll also notice a quiet energy.
There's a palpable peace that emanates from the Andes mountains in this region. Some say that the Earth's kundalini energy, which previously resided in the Himalayas, shifted to the Andes mountains of southern Peru and Northern Chile. Whatever the source of this energy, one thing is for certain: the feeling of peace here is undeniable.
Cusco comes from the Quechua word Q'osqo, meaning belly button. Ancient tradition here says that Cusco is the belly button of the world. The chakra that’s at your belly is called the navel chakra or Manipura. And this energy center is associated with your self-esteem, sense of purpose, personal identity, individual will, digestion, and metabolism.
So it couldn't be more appropriate to come to a wellness resort at the belly button of the world, to support and cleanse your digestive system, release toxins, and discover yourself again.

Pacha Munay Wellness is a boutique wellness resort located in the heart of the Sacred Valley in Cusco, centrally located to offer easy access to the most amazing archeological sites of the region.
