Compassionate Medicine Carrier
Experience the magic of intimacy, safety, and Huachuma in this all-inclusive 3 day/2 night retreat hosted by Nikki Szeghalmi. Walking her own path of healing and transformation, Nikki received rigorous training and apprenticeship with the medicine of Huachuma in Peru. Approaching her work with humble reverence, Nikki embodies a compassionate, therapeutic presence informed by her training in somatic, trauma-informed care.

Ananda Lodge
Ananda Lodge is a boutique healing center aimed at creating a ripple effect of healing through the reconnection of self and extending outward to all of humanity and to the planet. Our mission is to provide intimately curated healing experiences that regenerate your being, and pay respect to sacred medicine traditions. We honor this through the lens of integrity, reverence for the healing plants, and the medicine keepers that carry these sacred rituals and traditions.
At Ananda Lodge, eco-sustainability meets luxury, featuring local artisanal design elements and natural wood and earth tones. Spanning over 3300 square meters, our property offers a secluded hideaway just 6 minutes from some of the best surfing in the country.
Stepping onto the property, immediately you feel an overwhelming sense of calm and peace. Removed from the noises of daily life, Ananda Lodge sits perched on the mountain with a picturesque view of the jungle and the Pacific Ocean. The sound of birds and monkeys fill the air, and as you settle in, a remembering of coming home, back to nature, can be felt throughout the body.
