Yoga Raw Food Retreats

 

Ashtanga Yoga, Living foods, & Incredible nature

 

We believe that nature is the ultimate healer. Casa Verde offers a unique combination of eco yoga retreat, coupled with a delicious raw food cleansing diet, “deep green” lifestyle opportunity, and an eco-adventure, on the North Caribbean Coast of Honduras, Central America.

 

Casa Verde is located in a magnificent, pristine, yet to be discovered area, beside the tranquil 500 mile Pico Bonito National Forest of Honduras. Here you will find impeccable mountain air, sweet spring water, fresh picked fruit, trillions of trees, battalion of birds and a 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. Retreat, relax, repair, renew, re-discover, and replenish your most original self.

OUR PROGRAM: We offer an all inclusive healing program which includes; daily personalized yoga practice on the riverside deck, three locally grown fresh raw food meals, fresh herb teas, non gear eco activities and evening discussions on various subjects, ranging from Yoga philosophy, cutting edge living foods nutrition, Ayurveda lifestyle and Deep Green Living. We are certified Thai Massage therapists through ITTA (International Thai Therapists Association). Weekly guests will receive one complimentary massage. Extra massages are available at reasonable rates.

OUR DIET: We eat a plant-based, nutritionally balanced, alkaline diet of locally grown, fresh picked tropical fruits, sprouts, veggies, nuts and seeds prepared in simple yet delicious recipes. Our meal plan is supremely nourishing, cleansing and ultimately very satisfying.

Some guests may prefer to add juice or water fasting days to their retreat program.

If you need to lose weight, you can expect to shed pounds effortlessly. If you are already at your perfect your weight, it will remain stable. Everyone can expect to cleanse environmental toxins, leaving you feeling light and bright.

Eco Activities include nature hikes in pristine rain forests with sparkling waterfalls, river swims, bouldering up huge river rocks, as well as visit or volunteer in local remote communities. Local tour operators offer horseback riding, tours of biological reserves, white water rafting, mangrove kayaking and canopy zip-line at extra cost. OR for the resting spirit, just chill on the porch and read, write, sing, draw and meditate.

La Ceiba is 5 miles away on the Caribbean coast and is called the "Girl Friend" of Honduras. Home to the Standard Fruit Company since 1865, this clean, friendly city boasts a vibrant street scene and an infamous nightlife. The petite, spotless International Airport is just 15 miles away. Roatan, a true Caribbean 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!

Fresh fruitsBack 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 traditional 800 sq ft 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. Use your retreat as a spring board to a healthier, greener lifestyle!

GETTING HERE: Check out flights into LA CEIBA. We will arrange taxi transport from and to the airport for an added cost of $25 each way per carload.

Here at Casa Verde, we continue to refine our offering to heal, inspire, and help our guests along the eco-raw-yoga path. We are now "offsetting" all of our guests plane travel through Carbonfund.org. We want to protect our planet and do our part to mitigate climate change and encourage others to do so as well.

Honduras was in the news 2009. Thankfully, all has been resolved. We assure you, all of our guests arrive safely and enjoy all of their activities. We live in a peaceful, rural area, far from any of the issues that occurred in the big cities.
