Invati Health and Impact Retreat Banos Ecuador
Ecuador 🇪🇨 Health and Impact Retreat March 16-23, 2025
This retreat promises to be an unforgettable adventure filled with purpose, relaxation, and exciting activities.
We will be staying at the luxurious Sangay Spa Hotel.
Located just across the street from our hotel, you'll have access to rejuvenating hot springs and invigorating cold plunges. Prepare to be amazed by the breathtaking waterfalls, perfect for all the waterfall enthusiasts out there. Surrounding us are some of the tallest mountains in the world, creating a truly awe-inspiring backdrop.
Get ready for an action-packed itinerary filled with exciting activities such as hiking, biking, canyoning, massage, and zip lining and of course yoga and meditation. All activities are optional. Ecuador is known for its diverse flora, boasting the largest variety of flowers in the world, as well as being home to the most species of hummingbirds. Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature while exploring this incredible country.
But it's not just about adventure and exploration. Our retreat also has a meaningful purpose. We aim to make a difference by building a senior citizens building in the poorest community in the country. Around 30-40 seniors are in need of a community center to gather at. During our time there, we will have the opportunity to contribute through tasks such as mixing cement, painting, and other labor work. This will allow us to closely interact with the village and community, creating a lasting impact.
Did you know that Ecuador is the gateway to the Amazon? Add in a 12 hour trip to the Amazon on one of the chosen days during the retreat.
The price for the retreat is $2695 Canadian for a private room or $2195 for double occupancy. This price includes accommodation, transportation, breakfasts and dinners, yoga sessions, a $100 donation towards building the seniors community center, 3 activities, and hot and cold natural spring plunges.
Flights are not included in the price, prices at this time for flights are about $1000-1500.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to combine adventure, purpose, and relaxation in one unforgettable retreat. Mark your calendars for March 12-23, 2025, and join us in Ecuador for an experience of a lifetime.
