Program
Each element of Pacha Munay Wellness Resort's signature program, the Allowing Ease Wellness Retreat, has been thoughtfully curated to assist you in not only feeling lighter in your body and mind, but also creating a safe space for you to look within in order to understand yourself more deeply.
You'll also learn how to tune into the wisdom of your own body and gain clarity around your path and purpose so that you may return to your most natural state: ease.
Experience all of this while steeped in the potent, transformational energy of the Peruvian Andes and compassionately held by Pacha Munay Wellness Resort's team of experienced, heart-centered staff as you journey within and without.
People often experience trauma, grief, isolation, and feel helpless, not knowing the next steps to take. This retreat will help you come out on the other side, with a deeper understanding, clarity, and compassion for yourself. Feel ready to step back into life with a new perspective.
You will integrate practices of letting go, forgiveness, and real-life integration, which is why Pacha Munay calls the program, "Allowing Ease." It's exactly that - finding ease in your life. You will have space to heal, with the gentle guidance of the retreat leaders.
Pacha Munay will provide you with nourishing meals, one-on-one spiritual guidance sessions, daily meditation and yoga practices, so all you will have to do is be there. You can relax, you'll be taken care of.

- You’re ready to find rest and ease in your life…

Retreat highlights
- Have all of your basic needs met so you can focus your full attention on rest, tuning into yourself, and healing
- Be deeply supported as you identify and revise beliefs that are blocking you from living a life that feels deeply fulfilling
- Connect with your body in new ways and let go of what’s no longer serving you

Discover clarity and find peace in difficult areas of your life
Through self-inquiry exercises and in one-on-one guidance sessions, you’ll identify and release limiting beliefs, false identities, and negative patterns that are keeping you feeling stuck or blocked.
From this space of deeper understanding, you’ll learn how to encounter challenges in your life and discern the right action to take so that you may live in personal integrity and be a pillar for good on the planet.
Calm inflammation and feel great in your body
Wholesome, nourishing meals made with local organic ingredients, detoxifying herbal treatments, daily movement activities, infrared-light sauna therapy, and a trip to local natural hot springs will give you the effective reset that your system needs so that you can feel your very best again.
Through specially formulated meal plans and herbal remedies, the focus will be on reducing inflammation in your body (which is the cause of most physical discomfort and dis-ease). You’ll flush out any intestinal blockages with fiber-rich digestive shakes and optional colon hydrotherapy treatments.
And to keep your body’s pathways open and flowing, enjoy a deep-tissue massage session, as well as daily hot / cold therapy and yoga.
Recharge your batteries and return home renewed
Whether you’re feeling burnt out from giving all of yourself to your career or family and are needing to refill your own cup, or you’ve recently endured a difficult event or transition, or you’re simply in need of a full-on system reset, they at Pacha Munay are devoted to creating a healing experience that will support you in the specific ways you need the very most.
Oftentimes, people return home from vacation even more tired than before they left. When you stay with Pacha Munay, you’ll be gifting yourself actual rest, so that you can return home revitalized and with a fresh, clear, and empowered outlook.
Daily holistic support:
Yoga and meditation
The yoga you'll be practicing will be primarily focused on supporting the organs and the gut. It will be gentle movement for detoxing. On the other hand, meditation is key to mental and spiritual well-being. The guided meditation will focus on you becoming intimately acquainted with your mind and your thoughts.
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. It’s a subtle yet effective way of bringing consciousness to aspects of your life that need your attention, love, and most importantly, forgiveness.
Infrared sauna and cold shower
The 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, and improved circulation.
Gratitude ceremony with Q'ero paco
The Q'ero nation people are renowned worldwide for their spiritual energetic ceremonies. They've been called masters of living energy. You will 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 (Pachamama) and all she offers people selflessly. These energetic ceremonies are a powerful way to set intentions for your healing, offer gratitude to life, and pray for your deepest aspirations.

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.
Retreat location
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 that the energy there 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 is, one thing is for certain: the feeling of peace there is undeniable.
Cusco comes from the Quechua word Q'osqo, meaning belly button. Ancient tradition there 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.
Food
Dining at Pacha Munay is based on a philosophy of world cuisine made with local organic ingredients, many grown in their gardens. They also work with a few local organic producers to ensure the highest quality and the freshest food.
Food safety is a top priority for them. They use water filters and ozonation to clean any raw fruits and vegetables, and they purchase their drinking water from a local purified water supplier. They’re able to cater to most dietary restrictions with the exception of nut allergies.
All program meals
Pacha Munay Wellness Resort serves breakfast and lunch, and recommends intermittent fasting. However, if you’re hungry in the evenings, they have fruit or light soup available. This allows for the best possible detox results. A variety of fresh-pressed juices, probiotic drinks, and healthy snacks will always be available throughout the day.
Cleansing drinks
Daily superfood cold-pressed juice
- This delivers nutrients, minerals, adaptogens, hormone-balancing foods, and antioxidants into your system.
Bentonite and psyllium shakes
- When you're detoxing, cleansing, or eating a diet that may cause the die-off of fungus, yeasts, and parasites, the mycotoxins, heavy metals, and other pathogens will be released. It's important to capture these pathogens and toxins so that they don't recirculate back into the blood and enter your organs again.
- Pacha Munay Wellness Resort uses ‘binders’ in their programs so that you can successfully eliminate these toxins and pathogens from your body.
Pacha Munay Wellness Resort's signature anti-inflammatory detox tincture
- Developed by certified herbalist and naturopath Viktoria Ferencz, this tincture blends traditional medicinal Western and Eastern plants with Peruvian plants from the jungle and mountains, offering liver and kidney support, powerful anti-inflammatory combination, and detoxing properties.
- It includes passion fruit, dandelion root and leaves, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, nettle root and leaves, chamomile, green tea, achiote leaf, guanabana leaf, cat's claw, lemon verbena, and plantago.
