Amazing experience!!
I recently attended the 7 day women's psilocybin retreat at Ananda Lodge and it was incredible! I had no idea what to expect, but I came in open minded and excited. My experience exceeded my greatest expectations. The medicine helped me deal with past trauma, let go of resentment and fears/anxiety and left me feeling even more grateful for the people in my life. We are still doing integration sessions with Kimberly, and it has been so great to see how I am incorporating changes into my life. I'm so inspired by the progress that I'm going to sign up for the upcoming microdosing session! Also, the bonds our group made are so strong. We have a very active WhatsApp group and plan to meet up in the future. Kimberly and her team have the biggest hearts and care so deeply about us. There were plenty of 1:1 sessions as well as learning opportunities, breath work, etc. The food was amazing and the property itself was stunning. We all had a very comfortable room with a beautiful view. I highly recommend Ananda!!

Women's Psilocybin 8 Day Retreat
Ananda Lodge is a sacred space that holds the wisdom of land. Kimberly, Jay, Dana and all of the staff created a safe, warm environment for plant medicine to work its intention. I began the most incredible journey there that has opened up my creativity and joy in avenues I had never considered. I am deeply grateful for this experience. The food and accommodations were also incredible as were the friends I met along the journey. I will never forget this trip. It was truly the best thing I could have ever done for myself.

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.

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.
