Help on my nature retreat in Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica

Details

• 

  Description

  We are beachfront, with a surf spot right in front in a remote, off-grid location under the world's most biodiverse rainforest. We also have a native wellness center with a sweat lodge, cold plunge, etc. This sounds amazing, but it's also raw since it's a real experience in the rainforest.
  
  You'll be stating in a "grassroots" nature retreat in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica. We are just getting started sharing what we have learned over decades in this magical jungle known as the most biodiverse rainforest in the world.
  
  My role is to be mother nature's teaching assistant. Guiding retreat participants to the right place at the right time with a perspective of life that's integrated, connected, and vertically and horizontally alive. Resulting in a deep natural feeling of connection. Which we believe is essential in the complex, mechanical modern human world.
  
  We have good quality, simple infrastructure. The volunteer spaces are single-glamping bedrooms with shared bathrooms. As a center focused on spirituality, all journeys are individual. If you have a friend/couple, please apply separately.
  
  Food is offered as part of the volunteer opportunity.

  What's this?
• 

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The Osa Peninsula is alive, totally off the grid. It's full of life. We are beachfront. People call it paradise. But it's real and raw. A spiritual experience, like it or not :).
  
  The Osa Peninsula is a magical place alive in more ways than we realize. This area has so many qualities it's impossible to express them over text. Still, the area, all the living things, its beauty, spirit, whatever you want to call it - profoundly affects people.
  
  These things are related to the essential aspects of life, the powerful stuff that transforms you. This is real nature at its prime, in a rainforest that wants to teach us about life. In a center that honors and is dedicated to learning and practicing nature-oriented spirituality.
  
  Most people have not had contact with nature at this level of diversity. Or with its spirit in such a way. It has nothing to do with tourism, adventure, culture, or community. Nothing to do with what we eat, say, pray, wear, or think. All that is part of the human mind world.

  Help

  You'll spend your volunteering time with my 9 y/o son. One hour we'll do home schooling and the rest is hanging out with him and his friends. Every day is different and I am also present as the primary care provider for him, and we do stuff all the time. Sometimes we'll come along when we do trips, go surfing and things like that.
  
  Being a nature center far away from the town and a spiritual retreat it's important that you are aware, responsable and working on your emotional dimensions so we keep an harmonious space. We all have things, the key is to take responsibility and have good communication.
  
  This is an opportunity for someone looking to improve and transform their lives for the better, please apply if you are at this moment in your life, and not into ( I want to experience nature ) because you'll be taking the space of someone how does and probably would no have a good time because this area causes that you like it or not.
  
  For those who do, there is enough fun to be had.
