3-Day Trauma-Informed Huachuma (San Pedro) Retreat in Playa Grande, Costa Rica | May 16-18, 2025

We invite you to experience the new paradigm of plant medicine care at Ananda Lodge.

Limited to only 10 people, this retreat is unlike any other available. Experience safety, intimacy, and trauma-informed somatic care in this all-inclusive 3 day/2 night retreat hosted by Huachuma Medicine Carrier, Chase Moore. Trained in Peru, Chase has a depth of experience of working with the sacred medicine of Huachuma. Held in a stunning private location, this retreat offers luxury accommodations, private chef meals, and individualized care in the serene setting of Playa Grande, Costa Rica. 

Chase Moore, a Tennessee native, is an experienced Huachumero trained in the indigenous San Pedro medicine tradition by his long time teacher, Bernhard Karshagen. He’s a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and has been teaching for over a decade.

Chase has dedicated over 8 years to working exclusively with the master plant of San Pedro. He has completed extensive diets with San Pedro and has also held diets for others wanting to deepen and strengthen their connection with the medicine. In 2019 Chase and his wife Anna founded their healing collective, The Spirit Cooperative, focused on providing intimately curated retreats in the Sacred Valley of Peru.

Chase approaches his work with humble reverence, always aiming to be compassionately attuned to each guest and how to support them to receive exactly what they need. Ceremonies with Chase are always limited to a small number of participants to ensure personal, one-on-one time with each person.

Our carefully crafted accommodations provide comfort as you engage in transformative experiences guided by respected Indigenous facilitators. We honor sacred plant medicines and integrate somatic practices, creating a safe, nurturing environment that supports each individual’s unique healing journey, allowing for deep restoration of body, mind, and spirit.
