Retreat Highlights
You've felt it. The knowing that your personal journey requires more than quick fixes or surface solutions. If you're ready to go deeper, to be truly supported, and to honor the medicine's wisdom—you may belong here.
ANCHOR YOUR INSIGHTS FOR LASTING TRANSFORMATION
Each individual carries their own innate, potent healing wisdom. However, as life happens we accumulate stress, worry, sadness, and trauma imprints that can disconnect us from this inner knowing. The use of sacred plant medicine, combined with guided support, helps us to reclaim our essence, our purpose, and clarity in life.
Following plant medicine journeys, most people return to ordinary life and slowly the insights fade. Without support, the profound clarity can become a distant memory. The healing remains incomplete.
There is a better way.
Microdosing with purpose and guidance is a powerful tool to bridge the medicine journey into lasting transformation.
Kimberly is the co-founder of Ananda Lodge Costa Rica and a certified somatic trauma-informed medicine facilitator and integration guide. As an empathic medicine woman, Kimberly brings over 10 years of personal coaching and working with plant medicine.
Experiencing the depths of corporate burnout, she turned to ancient healing traditions and plant medicine for soul reconnection and transformation.
Guided by indigenous wisdom, she learned to listen to nature’s whispers and harness its healing energies. As the founder of Ananda Lodge Costa Rica, Kimberly continues to walk the path of a humble servant, providing one-to-one coaching, support, and guidance through plant medicine journeys.
In addition to her training in trauma-informed care, she is also a certified sound healing therapist, and herbalist in training. On her path she has received mentorship from Atira Tan, Kat Courtney, Daniela Riojas, and Erika Buenaflor. With deep reverence for the Shipibo-Konibo tribe, she continues to apprentice in ayahuasca shamanism and facilitation.

MAXIMIZE YOUR PLANT MEDICINE INVESTMENT
Each individual carries their own innate, potent healing wisdom. However, as life happens we accumulate stress, worry, sadness, and trauma imprints that can disconnect us from this inner knowing. The use of sacred plant medicine, combined with guided support, helps us to reclaim our essence, our purpose, and clarity in life.
Following plant medicine journeys most people return to ordinary life and slowly the insights fade. Without support the profound clarity becomes a distant memory. The healing remains incomplete.
Preparing for plant medicine journeys, most people underestimate the power of preparation that is the catalyst for depth and profound medicine experiences. Without structure and inquiry, the medicine experience can be overwhelming or underwhelming, leading to confusion or unclear next steps on the path.
There is a better way.
Microdosing with purpose and guidance is a powerful tool to bridge the medicine journey into lasting transformation.

Integrity, reverence, authenticity.
I have been in a spiritual and healing journey since 2012. I’ve been through multiple yoga teacher trainings, and have spent years in spaces with facilitators. I am being honest when I say I have never been so comfortable in the presence of a teacher as I am with Kimberly. She embodies somatic awareness and practices, demonstrates great reverence for indigenous practices and weaves together scientific evidence with an ancient philosophies in such a way that everything makes complete sense. I am fortunate enough to be working through a three month immersion with her online as well as I attended a one week integrative somatic experience that allowed me to explore what the nervous system can feel like when it’s not in the state of flight or fight. She honors and embodies the work that she shares, and you can truly see that in the way that she holds space and sets boundaries, and shares expectations of you meeting her halfway in your own work.
She pauses in presence during communication and practices, active listening, and emphasizes the art of rephrasing and reframing to help shift patterns in our lives.
Thank you, Kimberly. Aho.

If this experience calls, go ahead and respond.
If you’re looking for an experience of integrity, deeply rooted in somatic practices, yoga philosophy, and shamanic wisdom, this is the Retreat for you. Not only is the location a safe space, the facilitation creates a container for the most self reflective and healing journey of your life. The property is beautiful. The accommodations are clean and stunning, I felt so comfortable here. The land it’s beautiful and the animal visitors are so exciting to see. The talented and diverse chef created the most delicious and nurturing meals, accommodating dietary requests. I cannot wait to join another Retreat. The facilitators also support the local community and honor indigenous practices with great reverence.

Magical
From the moment I stepped onto the land at Ananda Lodge, I felt welcomed. The warmth began at the gate — being greeted with kindness, having my luggage carried in — and it continued in every small detail of the experience. There is something about this place that immediately makes you feel safe, seen, and held.
During my stay, I shared this journey with three incredible women, and together we were supported by the most compassionate and attentive team I could have imagined. Our host, Kim, carries a depth of care that is rare. The level of presence and genuine support she offers is something I will never forget - true compassion. Throughout the ceremonies, I felt protected and guided in a way that allowed me to go deeper than I thought possible.
The Shipibo maestra’s icaros were powerful beyond words — ancestral, precise, and deeply moving. And Mihao, whose knowledge of plant medicine is clearly a life path and devotion, brought a beautiful balance to the space. He is not only a gifted musician, but a multidimensional medicine man whose presence feels steady, wise, and grounded. The way he holds the masculine within ceremony created a container that felt complete and safe.
The second ceremony was the most challenging for me — physically and emotionally — yet even in its intensity, I felt supported at every step. Without the care and attentiveness of the team, I don’t know if I could have navigated it the way I did. That support made all the difference.
The food, prepared with such respect for the dieta, was nourishing, abundant, and lovingly made. Every meal felt intentional, fresh, and aligned with the process we were in. We were truly cared for like queens.
Ananda Lodge holds a space where healing can unfold naturally — gently when possible, powerfully when needed. I leave with gratitude in my heart and a steadier, softer feeling in my body.
This is a place I will return to, with trust and an open heart.

Eight-Day, Seven-Night Ayahuasca Retreat
What unfolded for me at Ananda Lodge was extraordinary, leaving me profoundly grateful and more whole than when I arrived. Having sat in ceremonies elsewhere, I can say with confidence that the care, coordination, and thoughtfulness Kim and Jason offer truly stand apart. I look forward to returning.
The ceremonies were profoundly healing - transformative and illuminating in ways that continue to unfold. The medicine met me in ways that are difficult to describe. I was in awe of the ancient wisdom carried through the Shipibo tradition, and of Maestro’s steady, anchoring presence throughout. The depth and sacredness of the experience are beyond words.
Kim and Mihau shaped a space of safety, intention, and reverence that allowed me to travel through time and possibility - and land in new beliefs. They were deeply attuned and present, and we always felt supported and seen. Their devotion to the medicine is not a role, it is a lifestyle. The way they show up is authentic, with roots also in humility and service. They prioritize the well‑being of every person there.
The space itself is stunning, thoughtfully and sustainably designed, with luxury accommodations, ocean views, and open-air gathering spaces. All around, the jungle hums with the chatter of birds, monkeys, insects, and the scuttling of geckos.
The food was remarkable; whole, nurturing, fresh, and prepared with love by Camilo. Every detail reflects his creativity and passion. It tastes so good you will return for seconds – perhaps even thirds!
I went for the medicine and left with new friends - mi familia. We witnessed one another, grew together, and now share a connection that will stay with us for life. We are birds that took flight.
Thank you all so much!
A very special thanks to Irie, the Jungle Poodle.

Bliss at Ananda Lodge
This was my first experience with Plant Medicine, and the thought and care put into the pre-retreat preparation, the retreat, and the post-retreat care made it such a safe, peaceful, and transformative journey. I experienced relaxation, acceptance, love, and bliss in mind, body, and soul. The sound healing and massage were amazing! Thank you, Ananda Lodge!
