FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Susun Weed invites you on an
Herbal Adventure in Costa Rica
March 4 ~ March 12, 2005
Immersing ourselves in lush rainforest, rugged mountains, and long
stretches of palm-fringed beaches are just some of the experiences we
will have. The Caribbean coast of Costa Rica is just teeming with colorful
flora and fauna. We will experience a wide variety of ecosystems that
grace this part of our gorgeous earth. Susun Weed will lead us in this
9 day herbal adventure as she shares with us her vast knowledge of the
natural world. She will teach us about green allies, plant journeying,
the secret language of plants, and much more! With the help of local
guides, we will learn about the medicinal uses of the plants in the
area. We are very excited to have you join us on this unforgettable
journey through Costa Rica.
Where we’ll stay in Costa Rica ~
Located 30 miles south of Puerto Limon, Samasuti is an exquisite retreat
center situated on 250 acres of virgin rainforest overlooking the Caribbean
Sea. It is the perfect place for adventure, rejuvenation, and contemplation.
We will stay in guesthouses (with shared bathrooms) and bungalows (with
private bathrooms). Eating a marvelous, whole foods diet will nourish
and support us throughout our adventure.
A sampling of places we’ll visit and things
we’ll do ~
Hike
in a biological reserve. The virgin rainforest is the most biologically
diverse ecosystem on the planet. Walking through it is like taking a
step back in time.
We will
visit a botanical garden and an indigenous reserve. Here we will be
able to observe an extraordinary diversity of medicinal plants. Locals
will teach us about the traditions and beliefs of the native peoples.
Boating
and kayaking in the crystal clear waters off the Caribbean coast will
provide us with a breathtaking experience.
We will
tour a 30 acre environmentally conscious farm which strives for sustainable
living through the use of eco-technology.
Daily
yoga and meditation classes, and a dip in the jacuzzi will nourish and
invigorate us all.
We will
also have plenty of time to relax and swim on the glistening beaches,
as well as at the retreat center.
