House of Healing & Integration
A Recovery House for those on an alternative path of healing through the work with plant medicine.
Whether you're looking for help for yourself or a loved one, we understand the pain, frustration, and sense of hopelessness that accompanies addiction—because we've been there. At Nova Vida, we provide an alternative, holistic approach to recovery, with a deep emphasis on spiritual development.
Our unique program incorporates entheogenic plant medicine traditions with comprehensive integration practices that address spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical well-being. We invite you to learn more about our recovery programs, located on our nature-based property just outside of Austin, TX.

We receive guests struggling with addiction or other dysfunctional patterns who are...
Post Plant Medicine Treatment
Iboga and Ayahuasca offer profound and peak experiences of healing and transformation. However, the path of recovery requires substantial time and space to integrate these experiences into long-lasting positive change. Nova Vida supports guests in establishing a foundation of spiritual practice and healthy lifestyle routines. We are a great place to land for those post Iboga and Ayahuasca retreats.
Seeking Alternatives to Conventional Treatment
It’s common that those struggling with substance abuse have unsuccessfully attempted to recover through conventional 12-step treatment programs. Our alternative to conventional treatment is based on the transformational power that comes with working with the medicines of the earth. Our team of mentors and therapists guides guests in finding the root cause of their addiction and help them develop the skills necessary for their continued healing journey.
Or Otherwise Ready for Healing & Integration
The truth is that it’s not only those struggling with addiction who are in need of healing – we all are. At Nova Vida, we open our doors to those in need of space and time to heal through our holistic and integrative approach to growth and development.
The Importance of Aftercare
The days and weeks following an iboga treatment or ayahuasca retreat are a critical window for transformation—but also a vulnerable one. While the medicine can offer profound insight and interruption of addictive patterns, real change is cultivated through consistent integration, structure, and support. At Nova Vida, we provide a grounded environment where guests can process their experiences, stabilize their nervous systems, and begin weaving the teachings of the medicine into everyday life. Through holistic care, therapeutic guidance, spiritual practice, and community, we help individuals translate temporary breakthroughs into lasting transformation. Aftercare isn't an afterthought—it's the bridge between revelation and a truly renewed way of being.
