Shamanic herbalism and yoga on living land in Nicaragua
This four-day retreat weaves together shamanic practice and yoga within a working herb garden in Nicaragua. You'll learn plant medicine and somatic techniques rooted in both traditions—not as spiritual theater, but as pragmatic tools for nervous system regulation and clarity. The land itself is the classroom: over forty medicinal and culinary plants grow here, from cacao to culantro, aloe to rosemary. Chakana Yoga Center teaches you to recognize the healing resources already present in your body and environment. Expect grounded asana work, herbal preparation, and shamanic practice. No promises of transcendence—just solid, land-based learning that respects both traditions.
