About this Retreat
Chase was born and raised in Tennessee in the US. He’s a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and has been teaching for over a decade.
He’s dedicated 8 years to working with the plants and 6 years exclusively with San Pedro. If he’s not holding ceremony or teaching jiu jitsu, he’s with the loves of his life Anna and Maria Grace.
Chase prays that he can offer the same opportunities for growth that have been afforded to him and his family. He is here as a platform for change. Chase is constantly working towards alignment for our guests. Every ceremony is prefaced that it be exactly what is needed for the best interest of each participant. Our prayer is that all of our guests are given the tools they need to be authentic, be of service, and be the best version of themselves going forward.
Details of this retreat
Ananda Lodge welcomes you to this very special medicine experience with the sacred cactus of the Andes. Join us for an intimate 8 day/7 night gathering with a max of 14 guests. Guests will enjoy luxury sustainable accommodations, 3 sacred healing ceremonies, and one-to-one consultations with our master San Pedro facilitator, Chase Moore (The Real Spirit Cooperative).
San Pedro, also known as Huachuma, is a cactus revered as a sacred plant medicine for over 3,000 years in the Andes of Peru. San Pedro contains a number of psychoactive alkaloids, but the major one is the classic psychedelic mescaline. Despite being sometimes overlooked, it possesses profound healing properties. A San Pedro ceremony can be intense and powerful, and everyone will undergo a unique experience tailored to their needs. San Pedro facilitates a deep exploration of our self-imposed barriers and limitations, allowing us to open our hearts and connect with our true selves. Each ceremony is a profound reunion with ourselves, Mother Nature, and the Divine. Acting as a medicinal mirror, San Pedro illuminates the self-limiting beliefs and patterns that we cling to, gently guiding us towards releasing that which no longer serves our highest good.
WHAT YOU'LL GAIN:
A unique opportunity to forge your personal connection with San Pedro, as well as with Source and the Universe in a safe, beautiful location in Playa Grande, Costa Rica
Alignment in the body, mind, heart, and spirit and an opportunity to return home more integrated, whole, and happy.
THIS RETREAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
If you’re seeking an authentic healing experience where the sacred medicine of San Pedro is honored.
If you’re looking for an intimate container where your 1:1 care and safety is prioritized to do deep healing work.
