Root & Wisdom Retreat: The Premier Iboga Experience for Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual Transformation (with Free 1-on-1 Integration Coaching and Access to Our e-integration Platform)
Join us for a 7-day transformative retreat at our eco-luxury resort in the Costa Rican jungle. We uniquely blend indigenous teachings, psycho-spiritual insights, and somatic practices to guide you on a journey of deep self-discovery and healing. What truly sets Root & Wisdom apart is that our facilitators bring not only extensive experience with plant medicine but also graduate-level degrees in clinical counseling or psychology. This rare blend of Western education and traditional wisdom, alongside our facilitators’ direct genetic ties to Central Africa, the home of Iboga and the Bwiti tradition, allows us to honor the origins of this sacred plant teacher in an authentic, rooted way.
We provide unparalleled integration support. Along with your retreat experience, you’ll receive five free 75-minute 1-on-1 integration coaching sessions with Maia, a licensed counselor and psychedelic integration coach. You’ll also get free access to Nectara’s Integration Platform, offering a vast library of resources, live workshops, psychedelic support courses, and much more, ensuring your journey is fully supported before, during, and after the retreat.
This retreat includes:
- Ceremonies (2x)
- Five free 75-minute integration coaching sessions
- Somatic breathwork, yoga, meditation, and sound healing
- Spiritual showers and sacred rituals

- Guided nature walks and intentional time in nature

Root & Wisdom combines professional expertise with holistic wisdom to offer the most comprehensive Iboga experience.
Whether you are new to plant medicine or experienced, this retreat is designed to support you wherever you are on your journey through its unique blend of Eastern and Western modalities and practices. Reconnect with the essence of your being and return home with a renewed sense of clarity, purpose, and connection to yourself and the world around you.
