A family-held container for the work that matters most.

Hi — we are Jason and Kimberly Ocaña, founders of Ananda Lodge. Ananda is a family-owned, trauma-informed plant medicine retreat center in Costa Rica, offering small-group ayahuasca, psilocybin, and San Pedro retreats designed for deep personal insight and meaningful life transformation.

After attending many retreats ourselves, we saw the same pattern again and again. Groups were often too large, and facilitators did not always have the capacity to truly support what people were going through. We created Ananda to offer something different.

Our retreats are intentionally small and trauma-informed, recognizing that meaningful change happens not only in the mind but also through the body and nervous system. We hold space without judgment for your story and your process, at your own pace.

This land is truly restorative. We remain humble students in this work, so we can serve each guest with safety, care, and compassion.
