    This is a truly unique virtual immersion from heart of the rainforest. We gather to transmit the essence of the living wisdom from Pariana to uplift our global communities to VIVIR MEJOR as Melcho says – Live Better. In order to Live Better we must activate into the present moment and affirm that We Are Here & Present Together.

Association Pariana caretakes 77 hectares of Rainforest Jungle bordering the Manu National Rainforest which is protected by Unesco. The majority of families in this area make a living from eco-tourism, which is indefinitely halted and unfortunately, illegal deforestation and other exploitative entities prey upon necessity and force many folks into labor that destroys their own eco-systems. Through this and other initiatives we hope to counteract these forces.

Exchange

The cost of the immersion is $333.00
