Costa Rica is an incredibly popular wellness travel destination, and has all but become synonymous with relaxation, wellness, and optimized mental, physical, and spiritual health. A common phrase both spoken and lived there is ‘Pura Vida’ meaning, the pure life or the simple life.
Some wellness practices locals live by are walking in nature, forest baths, earthing (barefoot walks), eating healthy and natural foods, practicing yoga, and much more! A getaway to Costa Rica will leave you feeling reinvented in body and in mind.
1. Sustainability: The World Energy Council named Costa Rica the second most sustainable country in the entire world! In fact, they plan to completely decarbonate their economy by 2050. More than 98% of Costa Rica’s energy is renewable and they take incredible care of their land and resources. Taking care of their land is a traditional practice within this culture and is taken very seriously.
Costa Rica prides itself in its efforts to combat global warming and keep their beautiful forests and coastways protected. When traveling to Costa Rica, keep in mind how important land protection is there and be sure to follow their guidelines and show respect to the land, culture, and people.
2. Green Health: It’s no secret that spending time in nature offers mental, emotional, and physical health benefits. Medical doctors around the world have been prescribing “green prescriptions” which are prescriptions to spend time in nature. This practice began in the 1990s by doctors in New Zealand.
Green prescriptions are used to treat health conditions such as high blood pressure, lung diseases, and diabetes. Caring for, appreciating, and spending time in nature helps us better care for ourselves.

3. Commune With Nature: Think of communing with nature as fully experiencing nature with all of your senses, or becoming “one with nature”. Fully immersing yourself in nature promotes relaxation, reduced stress, increased happiness, and improved mental wellbeing. The above activities like nature walks, earthing, and forest baths are all great ways to commune with nature in Costa Rica. Spending extended time immersed in nature will refresh your brain and allow you to detach from the busy, hustle-influenced culture we are used to.
