Exceptional care from beginning to end

I can’t say enough about the care, compassion, and thoughtfulness that Emma, Michal, and Kimberly bring to every part of the retreat, from preparation through the retreat itself and into integration afterward.

They support you every step of the way, meet you exactly where you are, and provide the care you need in each moment. Nothing feels generic or rushed. Their support is personal, attentive, and deeply intentional. I felt safe, seen, and genuinely cared for throughout the entire experience.

The accommodations are beautiful, peaceful, and extremely comfortable. The food is delicious, nourishing, and thoughtfully planned to support the medicine and the work taking place throughout the week. Every detail feels intentional.

I am incredibly grateful to the Ananda team and would highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking for a thoughtful, enriching, and well-supported experience.

Amazing experience!!

I cannot recommend this more highly . Kimberly and Dana and Jason made me feel extremely comfortable and safe throughout the retreat. I did not have any spiritual experience and was not sure what to expect from the medicine and the ceremonies - I will admit I was a bit skeptical. Given all that - I left Ananda feeling like a new person. Kimberly and Dana held space for everyone and allowed us each to experience the medicine and ceremonies at our own pace. I arrived on my own and left having shared a deeply personal experience with people I love.

Where My Soul Found Its Way Home

The Empowered Path Retreat--I came to Ananda Lodge looking to go deeper into my own healing work, this time through plant medicine, and after one phone call with Kimberly, it was an easy decision. From the moment I arrived, their intention was palpable--in the quiet design of every space, from the sitting area to the maloca to the outdoor spaces meant for both community and stillness with nature. Kimberly, Jason, Dana, and the whole team held that intention with such care, offering one-on-one guidance after several of my ceremonies that made all the difference. That care extended well beyond the retreat itself, too--four weeks of preparation beforehand and three months of integration support afterward, with group calls and one-on-one sessions held online to help me carry the experience forward. I left with a true sense of self-acceptance and a felt understanding of what empowerment really means--being blanketed in unconditional love, and realizing how much love I have to give in return. It truly felt like stepping into another realm, heaven found here on earth. I will carry this experience with me always, and I hope anyone reading this finds their own way to Ananda Lodge.

Ananda Lodge

This experience at Ananda changed my way of being. I learned to trust and value myself. I was held in space gently and intentionally, and felt challenged to merge this experience with my old thoughts. I learned a great deal about how to protect my spiritual being and continue to evolve. Everything during my stay was attended to with great compassion.

Ananda is a Miracle

I came in search of 'freedom' and I left realizing freedom is within me. I gave all of my attention to this experience. From the moment it was brought to my attention as a possibility to it's continuing manifestation. My experience was profound and personal. I felt safe and supported throughout my time at Ananda. If all you did was come to partake of Chef Camilo's amazing food and sleep in your luxurious room you'd leave satiated. A special thank you to Norwin who was there for us each night and in the early morning with coffee-thank you. The facilitators are world renown. My journey was transformative. It's beyond what I have words for. What I can say is that I gave myself to the process, I trusted, and the experience I received was once-in-a-lifetime gift. My intention was to find 'freedom'. I left understanding freedom is inside me. The medicine continues to work in my life since leaving my experience at Ananda in incredibly positive ways. Beyond freedom, I am newly in love with my life. I am living in the moment. I am feeling kinder and more patient and loving to others. I found gratitude, acceptance and peace. Thank you Kimberly, Dana [Day-na] and Dana [Dahna].
