Rainforest Medicine Council Gathering ~ August 2025
August 2 @ 1:00 pm - August 11 @ 9:00 am
About This Trip
Join us in the breathtaking Osa Peninsula at Ocean Forest Ecolodge, where the rainforest meets the ocean, for a journey of deep spiritual renewal. The Rainforest Medicine Council Gatherings offer a unique opportunity to explore ancestral plant medicine traditions in an inspiring natural sanctuary.
For Spiritual Healing of Body and Soul
Designed for profound healing and renewal, this retreat immerses you in pristine nature and sacred rainforest medicines, prepared with the wisdom of traditional elders. Perched on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the legendary Caño Island, our ceremonial lodge is nestled within an original forest teeming with tropical life. Abundant birds and animals inhabit this lush landscape, creating the perfect setting for transformative experiences and an unforgettable good time. All this, while enjoying direct beach access and the ocean at our foot step.
