Root of Being wellness retreats offer unique cleansing and revitalizing packages. There are three and six night retreats with many choices for therapies, coastal adventures and medicine journeys.

In the rhythm of Nicaragua’s Emerald Coast, where the Pacific sends energy through every wave and the jungle enriches each breath, Root of Being wellness retreats offer transformation through yoga, body-work, plant medicine and vitality from local, nutrient-dense food. This is not a getaway from life, it is a return to it. This Nicaragua wellness retreat invites you to revive and thrive, to stand barefoot on warm sand and to let the land and sea remind you of true connection.

Popoyo is a place of gentle power: consistent swells that draw surfers from around the world, yet quiet corners to soak in tide pools or vibe with the jungle. The air is alive, the community open-hearted and the village society shares simplicity and warmth. Our wellness retreats cultivate this energy: fresh, vibrant and deeply grounding. We offer medicinal wellness experiences: cleansing, meditating, exploring and digesting the natural therapies that arise from the land itself.
Meals from local farms and sea, prepared with love. Fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, and fish that carry the vitality of this fertile land. Nutritional support is essential following detoxification, ocean adventures and plant medicine journeys.
Daily dips in the warm tidal pools provide a unique experience, where the salt water pulls out tension and the rhythm of the waves soothes the nervous system. This setting promotes surrender and renewal, rinsing away toxins released during plant medicine journeys and therapy.
For those called to it, the waves here offer joy and presence for beginners and seasoned riders alike. Everyone finds flow in Popoyo’s renowned breaks, supported by incredible instructors, friendly locals, year round off-shore winds and tropical water.
Walking skin-to-earth on sand and soil in coastal villages, absorbing the planet’s electrons to neutralize free radicals, reduce inflammation, and restore vitality. The simplest healing: direct contact with the living ground before and after plant medicine journeys and wellness experiences.
Intuitive, nurturing, hands-on
sessions that release stored tension and invite deeper embodiment post plant medicine. Our therapist specializes in multiple bodywork modalities, ranging from subtle energy movement to deep tissue release, enhancing your wellness retreat experience.
Cleanse and explore your inner realms with plant medicine during our wellness retreats. Our secluded, open-air meditation space keeps guests cool and spacious, making it an ideal setting. We offer a range of experiences from introduction to rite of passage. Truly transformative plant medicine journeys.
