Our Founder, Kimberly, a sexual trauma survivor knows the power of safe containers. Our women’s programs focus on empowerment through self-discovery and community. We provide specific tools that honor the unique lifecycles women experience.
After 18 years as a firefighter paramedic, our founder Jason found healing through plant medicine. Created by first responders for first responders, these retreats honor the unique burdens you carry, and extend support to your families.
Taking this step requires courage, and you deserve to feel safe and supported. Our comprehensive preparation and integration framework ensures newcomers feel safe, informed, and deeply held throughout the entire process.
Design a private or semi-private retreat tailored to your needs—whether for yourself, friends, family, or community. We’ll work with you to create your ideal journey.
Partner with our trauma-trained team to create a co-branded retreat experience. We provide the container, support, and expertise while you bring your unique vision and community.
Bring your therapeutic practice or healing modality to our retreat space, designed for depth. We handle lodging, meals, and logistics so you can focus entirely on holding your participants.
Safety, on all levels, is our number one priority at Ananda Lodge. Through ensuring proper screening, preparation, facilitation, and medical support, we aim to mitigate physical and psychological risks. We believe in layers of support and training our entire staff to enact the outlined safety protocols, should the need arise. Our retreat team members are trained in trauma-informed care and if desired, we have therapists and psychologists that we can safely refer to.
