We believe that nature is the ultimate healer. Casa Verde Eco-Ashram
takes “yoga retreat” to new heights and new depths. We offer a unique
combination of a classic yoga ashram, coupled with a raw food cleansing
diet, “deep green” lifestyle opportunity, and an eco-adventure, in a
magnificent, pristine, yet to be discovered area.
Casa Verde is located beside the tranquil 500 mile Pico Bonito National
Forest on the North Caribbean Coast of Honduras. Here you will find
impeccable mountain air, sweet spring water, fresh picked fruit,
trillions of trees, battalion of birds and symphony of exotic plants and
flowers, cradled on a superb property with a wide rushing white water
river, and a 400 foot waterfall view, all courtesy of mother nature herself.
While you leave your alarm clocks, cars and over-scheduled, noisy,
modern lives behind, you will slip back into the natural circadian
rhythms of your birthright. Relax, repair, renew, re-discover, and
replenish your most original self.
Daily, we offer early morning Mysore style Ashtanga practice, afternoon
riverside pranayama practice, karma yoga opportunities, raw food prep
classes, and evening discussions on various subjects, ranging from yoga
philosophy, cutting edge nutrition, Ayurveda lifestyle and Deep Green
Living.
Activities include nature hikes in pristine rain forests with sparkling
waterfalls,river swims,bouldering up huge river rocks, horseback riding
on wild secluded beaches, tours of biological reserves OR for the
resting spirit, just chill in the hammock and read, write, sing, draw
and meditate.
La Ceiba is 5 miles away on the coast and is the 3rd largest city in
Honduras. Home to the Standard Fruit Company since 1865, this clean,
friendly city boasts a vibrant street scene and an infamous night life.
The petite, spotless International Airport is just 15 miles away.
Roatan, a true Carribean Island paradise, offering spectacular diving is
just off shore. This area has it all. The Wall Street Journal has called
Honduras the "#1 Next Hot Spot, a cutting edge Costa Rica". We agree!
Back in the jungle, our accommodations are beautiful, simple, private
and organic. Choose a serene riverside room and bath in the main house
or enjoy our adobe guest house with kitchenette, bath and delightful
porch, built beside a gurgling creek and thickets of bamboo. Enjoy a
splendid bathing experience in our spiral river stone out door shower
under the grand old mango tree.
You will love your stay here, returning to your homeland cleaner and
clearer, lighter, brighter and blossomed, re-booted, rejuvenated and
enthused.
We kindly request that you leave all gadgets at home including cell
phones, iPods, game boys and laptops. Be courageous and unplug.
If you are looking to be fed non veg cooked food, drink alcoholic
beverages and in need of constant activities or a rental car, Casa Verde is not a match for you. We believe that less is more and encourage our
guests to "power-down" and immerse themselves in the restorative vibe of
the ashram and our simple raw, green, off-grid lifestyle. |
