Enjoy daily vinyasa yoga practices and participate in workshops; expect to leave with tangible mindfulness-based tools you can use to release, renew, and reset whenever you need.

Sandy can help guide you through arrival day travel, but we recommend checking out the Getting Here page on the Yoga Forest website for all the details. Please reach out if you'd like Sandy to arrange for a private group shuttle from the Guatemala City Airport or Antigua.

OFF THE GRID LIVING

The Yoga Forest is an off-the-grid experience. Composting bathrooms, outdoor shower and naturally built cabañas without electricity. There are no private bathrooms anywhere on the property.

We only have a little electricity in our cafe and kitchen for lights, and as such we cannot charge everyone's devices on our simple solar system. Another reason to be disconnected!

There are spiders and scorpions in the forest. It is a forest, there are other creatures too of course. But it is always good to know. Mosquitoes are not a problem, but there are small coffee flies that can be bothersome during the early dry season. Bring some natural insect repellent or wear long pants.

LIGHTS AT NIGHT

During the night the place is almost in complete darkness since the power is 100% off. We highly recommend you bring a headlamp, torches or anything they might need to walk around the forest during the night.

We suggest to use a backpack and pack light! Only bring the essentials and your adventurous spirit.

• Travel bath towel
• Journal / Books
• Comfortable hang out and warm clothes for night, long sleeves and pants with socks to avoid bug bites
• Sandals/Flip Flops & Walking Shoes
• Organic mosquito repellent
• Toiletries (Organic & Biodegradable - including hand & body soap, shampoo, toothpaste, tooth brush)
• A Moon cup for your menstrual cycle (Divacup, Femmecup etc) we also have some for sale if you need
• Probiotics and or any other appropriate preventative medicine
• Reusable Water bottle / thermos for tea
• Headlamp with batteries
• Solar powered light
• Solar rechargeable power cell to charge phones or devices if you are bringing them
