Roots to Rise Ayahuasca Retreat Consent and Cancellation Policy

Please Read Before Booking:

 

Thank you for considering joining us at the Evolution House Roots to Rise Ayahuasca Retreat in Costa Rica. We are honored to hold space for your healing journey and want to ensure that you feel fully informed and supported every step of the way.

Before reserving your spot, please read the following important information. By checking the box at checkout, you acknowledge that you understand and consent to the terms outlined below. A full health questionnaire will be emailed to you after booking and a detailed consent form will be signed in person upon arrival at the retreat.

​

Your Health and Well-Being

Our retreat includes practices that support deep personal growth, such as plant medicine ceremonies (Ayahuasca, Bufo, Kambo, and Xanga), cacao ceremony, breathwork, sound healing, yoga, light movement, and nature excursions. These experiences can be powerful, and while many find them deeply healing, they may not be suitable for everyone.

For your safety, we require all participants to be in stable physical and mental health. You’ll be asked to complete a health questionnaire before attending, which helps us understand your needs and determine if this retreat is the right fit for you.

If you have any current medical conditions (especially heart issues, neurological disorders, or mental health diagnoses) or are taking prescription medications, it’s essential that you speak to your healthcare provider before attending. This retreat is not a substitute for medical or psychological treatment.

​

Responsibility and Risk

All activities are entirely voluntary, and by participating, you acknowledge that there is some risk involved, including physical activity, emotional release, or exposure to natural elements. This includes but is not limited to:

  • Plant medicines (Ayahuasca, Bufo, Kambo, Xanga)

  • Cacao ceremonies

  • Breathwork and sound healing

  • Restorative yoga and movement

  • Tours, swimming, hiking, and other outdoor activities

While we take great care in creating a safe and nurturing environment, participation is at your own risk.

Please also note that our meals are aligned with ayahuasca and bufo medicine dietas and are free from animal products. However, we cannot guarantee the absence of all allergens. If you have food sensitivities, please let us know in advance.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your passport is valid, and that you meet the current travel requirements for entering Costa Rica.
