Plant Medicine · Costa Rica
Healing retreats designed with deep care in Costa Rica.
A more supported way to work with plant medicine — trauma-informed, intimate, and held by a family who truly cares.
Why People Come
You don't have to carry it alone anymore.
Most of the people who find us are quietly tired — high-functioning, deeply feeling, and ready for a softer way to do the inner work.

Our Difference
We hold people differently.
"We built Ananda for the person we used to be — the one who needed someone to actually see them during the hardest moments. That's the difference. That's the whole thing."
— Kim Ocaña, Co-Founder

Meet Kim & Jason
A family-owned sanctuary, built from lived experience.
We're Kimberly and Jason Ocaña — wife and husband, parents, and founders of Ananda Lodge. Kim is a trauma survivor and somatic facilitator. Jason is an 18-year firefighter paramedic. We built Ananda because we needed a place like this — and couldn't find one.
Everything here — every meal, every conversation, every ceremony — is shaped by the belief that healing happens in safe, deeply human relationships.
Held With Care
In their own words.
"I have done 14 ayahuasca ceremonies. This was my best retreat yet. I felt extremely safe at all times, and taken care of in a way I have never felt before."
Jasmine
First Responder Retreat
"Kim and Jason held the space like family. For the first time, I felt safe enough to actually let the medicine work."
Marisol
Women's Retreat
"The preparation and three months of integration changed everything. This is not a retreat — it's a passage."
