Life Changing

“I decided to wait a while after returning from the retreat before writing the review so as to give a more balanced perspective. I would highly recommend this retreat. From initial booking until we left, the team at New Life have been like family. No pretense, no inauthentic vibes, just plain love and realness. My stay was great, I was in room #3 I think... with a great view. I had my own bathroom and privacy to soak in everything after the ceremony. My group was like family. From the time we met at the airport (thanks for arranging the taxi) until the time we came back, we became like a family. The ceremonies were intimate but not overwhelmingly so. Matt really puts his all into it. The food was delicious, I keep telling Jeanae to come up with a cookbook and Wes was great with the fruit platter display. The entire team is very knowledgeable , open, understanding and I felt no weird vibes at all from them. The massage and yoga were great as well. I stayed for 5 days but I will be back, hopefully once a year. I enjoyed my time. Matt, Jeanae and Wes thank you so much for a life changing experience. I'm still feeling the effects and I hope it remains...”

Phenomenal Experience!

“I strongly suggest this to be the only option for participating in ceremonies. Set and setting are extremely important. The facilities and staff are extremely professional with the best personalities. They are some of my favorite people after visiting. The best place for a positive and safe time to enhance all areas of your life. I've never been able to fully relax and overcome anxiety until my visit there. Thank you!”

Farmers Market

FRESH FRIDAY- Farmers Market Trip –

We want our ayahuasca meals to be fresh, healthy and delicious. On Fridays we make trips to the farmers market to buy locally grown organic fruits and vegetables. Much of what we serve in the way of fruits is grown right on-site at our facility and we continue to expand our options with new vegetable/spice gardens on our vast property. But until they are available for harvest, we consciously purchase from local growers in our community.

Today we took two of our guests to help us hand-select the best ingredients for our meals. Aside from fruits and veggies, the farmers market also features locals selling hand made crafts and is a beautiful opportunity for guests to explore the culture of Costa Rica.
