Ayahausca Tennessee

Ayahuasca Tennessee – Understanding the Best Setting for Healing

Ayahuasca has become a widely sought-after plant medicine for those seeking deep healing, personal transformation, and spiritual awakening. As more people learn about the profound benefits of ayahuasca, interest has grown across the United States, including in Tennessee. However, while ceremonies may exist in the region, it’s essential to consider whether this setting truly provides the safest and most effective experience for such a powerful medicine.


The Rising Interest in Ayahuasca in Tennessee

Tennessee is known for its natural beauty, from the rolling Smoky Mountains to vast forests and rivers. With a growing wellness community, many people in Tennessee are turning to alternative healing practices, including plant medicine, to address emotional trauma, depression, anxiety, and a desire for greater spiritual connection.


While the demand for ayahuasca continues to rise, not all ceremonies are created equal. Many ceremonial circles operate without proper safety protocols or experienced facilitators, which can impact the overall effectiveness and safety of the experience. Before attending an ayahuasca ceremony in Tennessee, it’s important to ask:


  • Are the guides properly trained? (What tradition do they follow and where were they trained)

  • Are there safety protocols in place? (Medical screening and emergency protocols)

  • What is the ceremonial setting and how is the experience guided? (There should be live music, called Icaros)

  • Where does the medicine come from?

  • Does the setting support the depth of healing that ayahuasca can offer?

  • Will you have the guidance needed to navigate such a profound experience?


Why the Right Setting is Crucial for an Ayahuasca Experience

Ayahuasca is not just a psychedelic experience—it is a sacred and spiritual medicine that requires intention, respect, and the right setting for maximum benefit and energetic security. The environment in which the ceremony takes place plays a critical role in how deeply you can connect with the medicine.


The energy of a place deeply influences the ceremony. Ayahuasca retreats held in a contained, peaceful, nature-immersed environment allows participants to disconnect from their routine and enter a space of true introspection and healing.


For these reasons, many people searching for Ayahuasca in Tennessee ultimately decide to travel to a dedicated retreat center, like New Life Rising in Costa Rica, where they can experience the medicine in a safe, traditional, and supportive environment.

The Importance of Skilled and Experienced Guides

If you are considering ayahuasca Tennessee, it’s crucial to research who will be guiding the ceremony. Many 'facilitators' do not have the proper training, which can lead to unsafe or overwhelming experiences. Ayahuasca is a deeply powerful medicine, and working with skilled facilitators who understand how to navigate its energies is essential.


At New Life Rising, our experienced facilitators guide ceremonies with integrity, using traditional Icaros (medicine songs) and other healing techniques to ensure a structured, safe, and transformative journey. Our retreats are designed to provide a fully immersive experience in a safe, supportive, and sacred setting.


A Journey Worth Taking

While finding Ayahuasca Tennessee might seem convenient, the most profound healing often happens when you step outside your comfort zone. Traveling to Costa Rica for an ayahuasca retreat provides the ideal environment—free from distractions, deeply connected to nature, and guided by experienced shamans.

OUR AYAHUASQUEROS

FOLLOWING PERUVIAN TRADITION

Matthew and Jeanae have been working with plant medicine since 2014. They met through ceremonial work and it has been the foundation of their growing love ever since.

​

Together they have been trained through a powerful lineage of healers in the Peruvian Mestizo traditions going back generations. Matthew and Jeanae are deeply dedicated to their path and continue to grow in their work by traveling to the Amazon every year and completing master plant dietas. These dietas allow them to connect with the great spirits and receive insightful teachings and medicine songs called Icaros. They use these tools and songs in the ceremonies to guide the participants through the Ayahuasca experience.

​

Matthew possesses a strong intuition and is highly sensitive to energetic subtleties. These skills allow him to adapt the songs of the ceremony to meet the energy needs of the room. Jeanae has a very gentle and nurturing energy. Her singing and flute playing invite softness into the space. Matthew brings a grounded masculine energy while Jeanae brings a motherly feminine energy, creating a perfect balance and play between the two polarities.

​

To provide responsible ceremonies, we limit our Ayahuasca retreat size to 14 participants so that the energetic space is maintained with respect to each individual's experience. We offer our ayahuasca Costa Rica retreat ceremonies in darkness, promoting an inward journey to heal the soul. Jeanae and Matthew are passionate about this work and lead each ceremony with love, compassion, and a desire to share the beauty of the sacred medicine with all who seek healing.
