Each day begins with intention setting, meditation, pranayama, and yoga asana as a practice to cultivate deep inner connections and open to the experiences of the day. Organic locally-grown vegetarian meals will be served throughout to help cleanse and purify the body from the inside out.
The day will flow into different activities, ceremonies, or cultural excursions that coincide with the Peruvian Medicine Wheel as guide for transformation. Allow the breathtaking beauty of Peru’s Sacred Valley to guide you on your path of healing and self-realization.
