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.
