Sample Daily Schedule
ORGANIC FLOW - NO OBLIGATION
Our ayahuasca retreat is intentionally unstructured, allowing guests the freedom to process and explore at their own pace.
You’re free to connect with others when you feel called or take time for private reflection as needed. There are no requirements or obligations, simply engage in what feels most supportive for you in the moment. While we follow a general schedule and the structure remains consistent for each ceremony and recovery day, our retreat intentionally leaves room for organic modifications to best suit the flow and energy of each unique group.

THE AYAHUASCA CEREMONY
TRADITIONALLY TRAINED GUIDES
More than just passion, this work is our life's purpose. We've dedicated more than a decade to learning the Peruvian Mestiza Traditions.
We are honored to have been passed down traditions and medicine songs through generations of healers from both Peruvian Indigenous and Western decent. This unique position allows us to bridge the two words, blending cultures and bringing ancient wisdom to our participants without cultural barriers or the need for translators. Our ceremonies reflect a deep reverence and respect for Peruvian Mestizo traditions and the linages through which we were trained.
As a husband-and-wife team, we bring a harmonious balance of feminine and masculine energies into the ceremonial space. Matthew offers a grounded sacred masculine energy, while Jeanae embodies a compassionate and divine femininity, beautifully blending these complementary polarities. During the ceremonies, they both contribute their voice and musical talent to the Icaros and accompanying instruments.
Ayahuasca Costa Rica ceremonies offer a powerful opportunity to reconnect with your inner strength and heal.

AYAHUASCA SAFETY
PHYSICAL AND ENERGETIC PROTECTION
The primary safety concern is with interactions between Ayahuasca and other drugs/medications which could have adverse interactions or even fatal consequences. To ensure the safety of all our guests, we require every participant to complete a medical questionnaire over the phone before booking. In addition to the screening protocol, New Life Rising - Ayahuasca Costa Rica retreat center is equipped with emergency medical equipment such as an AED (automatic electronic defibrillator) and emergency medications. Jeanae and Matthew are certified in CPR and AED use. We always have 2 assistants at every ceremony to respond when needed.
Beyond physical safety, we safeguard our energetic space. Our training has equipped us with the ability to hold a ceremonial space with expertise and care. We use spirit allies for protection and possess the knowledge of when and how to interact with any spirits or entities that may enter the ceremonial space. As part of our mission to provide safe experiences, we limit our groups so that the ceremonial container can be maintained through the powerful energetic exchange not only from Ayahuasca but by each participant in the group.
