For Returning Guests & Experienced Medicine Sitters

Experience authentic Shipibo lineage work in this intimate immersion with master healer Orfelinda Sanancino Cauper from Pullcalpa, Peru. Designed specifically for Ananda alumni and those with significant ayahuasca experience, Orfelinda and our trauma-informed team will guide you through an all-inclusive 4 day/3 night journey that builds upon your existing foundation with the medicine.

Limited to just 10 participants, this immersion offers what many experienced sitters have been seeking but rarely find: direct 1:1 guidance from a Shipibo maestra combined with deep trauma-informed support. Share meals with Orfelinda, receive her personal wisdom, and experience the profound depth that comes from authentic lineage work in an intimate, held container.

This isn’t another introductory retreat—it’s a purposeful immersion into the rich wisdom practices of the Shipibo-Konibo tradition, with authentic healing ceremonies and multiple floral baths. All within our beautiful private sanctuary designed for luxury, somatic care, and the kind of depth that comes when you can truly let go.

At Ananda Lodge Costa Rica, nestled in the natural beauty of Playa Grande, we’ve created a sanctuary where trauma-informed care meets ancestral wisdom. Our carefully crafted accommodations provide the comfort and safety needed as you go deeper than before, guided by respected Indigenous healers who will work directly with your unique healing journey.

WHAT MAKES THIS IMMERSION DIFFERENT:

Intimate & Intentionally Designed

Unparalleled Depth of Support

Our 2:1 ratio of healers and facilitators to guests ensures you’re fully held throughout your deepening journey.

Unlike larger retreats where the healer’s attention is divided, you’ll receive 1:1 consultation and personalized icaros from Orfelinda herself.

Trauma-Informed Depth Work

Our CARE team is expertly trained to support experienced sitters in accessing deeper layers safely, honoring your nervous system throughout.

Built for Experienced Sitters

We don’t waste time on basics you already know, this container is designed to meet you where you are and take you further.

Continuity of Care

From preparation through extended integration support, we’re with you for the entire journey of deepening your relationship with the medicine.

The Sacred Pause You Deserve

Even with limited time, experience the gift of slowing down enough to let the deeper work truly land and integrate.

Authentic Cultural Immersion

Go beyond ceremony, share meals, stories, and daily life with our Shipibo Maestra in ways rarely accessible to Westerners.

Advanced Integration Pathways

Choose from 3 tiers of post-immersion programs specifically designed for those doing deeper work with the plants.

Honoring Your Journey

We recognize the wisdom and experience you bring, building upon your foundation rather than starting from scratch.

At Ananda Lodge, we’re not offering another ayahuasca retreat—we’re inviting experienced medicine sitters into a deeper paradigm of plant medicine work. Here, your readiness to go deeper is met with authentic lineage guidance, trauma-informed care, and the intimate container that profound transformation requires.
