March 14–23, 2027 · Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Costa Rica
The Evolution House
Roots to Rise:
the Remembering
Ayahuasca Retreat
A 10-day Ayahuasca immersion for those ready to remember who they are beneath the noise. Held in the heart of the Costa Rican Caribbean Coast.
The Remembering
This is not a vacation. It is a return. Over ten days we will sit with the medicine, integrate through body and breath, and remember the parts of ourselves we have forgotten. You will be held, nourished, and challenged — surrounded by jungle, ocean, and a small circle of fellow travelers.
The schedule is intentionally spacious. Some practices are optional, and your facilitator will check in with you before each one. Times may shift once we are on the ground, but the container remains steady.
What's Included
Everything you need for a supported, immersive retreat experience.
3 Ayahuasca Ceremonies
Three all-night ceremonies held in a safe, supported container.
Kambo Ceremony
Morning Kambo session to prepare the body for the work ahead.
Cacao Ceremony
Opening cacao ceremony to set intentions and soften into the retreat.
Sound Bath
A deeply relaxing sound bath to support nervous system regulation.
Conscious Connected Breathwork
Trauma-informed, somatic breathwork journey for release and integration.
Fire Spinning Workshop & Show
Playful evening workshop followed by a fire show under the stars.
Yoga
Morning yoga to ground, stretch, and reconnect with the body.
Punta Uva Beach Day
A full day at one of Costa Rica's most beautiful Caribbean beaches.
Quad Ride to the Waterfall
Adventure excursion with snacks and take-away lunch provided.

All Meals
Nourishing Ayahuasca-friendly vegan meals throughout the retreat. On ceremony days, only breakfast is served so the body can fast in preparation for the medicine work. On outing days, snacks and take-away lunches are provided to bring with you.
Ground Transport

What's Not Included
Optional add-ons and travel arrangements to plan on your own.
Optional Bufo Ceremony
An optional Bufo alvarius ceremony available at additional cost for those called to explore this medicine.

Nourishment
Ayahuasca-Friendly Vegan Chef Curated Meals
Every meal is lovingly prepared by our in-house vegan chef with deep knowledge of the Ayahuasca dieta. Meals are clean, vibrant, and free of heavy oils, salt, fermentation, and inflammatory ingredients — designed to keep your body light, your heart open, and your energy steady throughout the retreat.
Expect colorful plant-based bowls, fresh tropical fruits, nourishing grains, and locally sourced produce from Costa Rica's Caribbean coast. Each dish is crafted to support the medicine work, deepen integration, and remind you that healing can also taste extraordinary.

Meet Your Hosts & Facilitators
Retreat Owner & Host
Sheryn is the heart behind Evolution House and the visionary creator of Roots to Rise. Her path into this work was born from lived experience — she has walked through addiction, trauma, grief, and the long road of learning to transmute pain into purpose.
Through sound healing, Reiki Energy Healing, breathwork, and NeuroTransformation Therapy, she holds space for others to do the same. Ayahuasca and plant medicine played a profound role in her own transformation, and she is deeply passionate about creating retreats where others can feel safe, supported, and empowered to remember who they truly are.
Every retreat she hosts is an invitation to heal, connect, and rise — surrounded by jungle, ceremony, and community.
Shaman
Named by the Amazon Tribe, Oscar has spent an extensive amount of time in Peru with the Shipibo Conibo Tribe learning with his teachers in the Amazon — both plants and people — about the sacred traditions of serving Ayahuasca.
He has been through many intensive initiations and dietas over the last ten years and has safely served Ayahuasca, Bufo alvarius, Kambo, and other ancestral medicines to over 1500 people internationally. His dedication to his mission and prayer for the healing of humanity by using these medicines to raise the consciousness of the collective are strong and felt very deeply in his ceremonies.
The Ayahuasca that Oscar serves is prepared and prayed over by the family he knows personally. It is very clean and only contains two ingredients — the ayahuasca vine and chacruna — and is always fresh from the Amazon jungle of Peru and of the highest quality. The family who makes this medicine has intentions to reach the people for healing and to help them find their true Selves, and the family puts this prayer into the medicine while they cook it over four days and five nights.
Yoga Instructor
Planeta is a deeply intuitive and compassionate yoga instructor with a gift for creating safe, nurturing spaces for healing and reconnection. With a focus on gentle, restorative movement, her classes are designed to support integration of the plant medicine experience — helping participants soften back into their bodies, release emotional tension, and return to a sense of grounded presence.
Through breath, stillness, and mindful movement, Planeta gently guides each person back to themselves with care and reverence.
Firespace Facilitators
Javi and Franz are the creators of Firespace, a fire dance and flow arts community rooted in Puerto Viejo. For them, fire is not a performance — it is a sacred element, a teacher, and a healing art. Through intentional movement, breath, and rhythm, they guide others into relationship with flame as a mirror for transformation, presence, and inner alchemy.
Their workshops invite participants to meet the fire with reverence: to move with it, to be shaped by it, and to discover the courage that lives on the other side of fear. Whether dancing with poi, fans, or staffs, Javi and Franz hold space for both beginners and experienced flow artists to explore fire as a devotional practice — one that clears, empowers, and reconnects us to the primal wisdom within.
At Roots to Rise, they will share an evening fire spinning workshop and show, offering a playful yet profound experience of fire as sacred medicine.
