What is a master plant diet

AYAHUASCA MASTER PLANT DIETS ARE DEEPLY TRANSFORMATIVE A SACRED BOND MADE BETWEEN PLANT SPIRITS AND HUMANS

It opens your consciousness, peel back inner layers, and offer clarity and healing to embody meaningful change in your life. Breaking fears and doubt, that might be holding you back from pursuing what you love and deserve. By stepping into your courageous self and embarking on a profound inward journey with a teacher plant,you establish a lifelong spirit ally to grow with and guide you.

In the Amazonian shamanic tradition, master plant diets are an ancient practice among tribes to expand consciousness and transmit sacred wisdom and knowledge from the plants. During this process, specific foods and habits are avoided to purify and prepare the body as a committed vessel, allowing for a deeper connection to the teacher plant you will work with. This enables you to receive the plant spirit’s potent teachings and healing. Accompanied by sacred Ayahuasca ceremonies, with their profound and unpredictable power, the dieta will revitalize your entire being - physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. This alignment restores the joy of life and awakens your inner strength, empowering you to transform your future and embrace a better way of existence. Ayahuasca cleanses the body deeply, connects you to your power, and offers countless life lessons. It serves as a gateway to strengthening your bond with the master plant spirit you are dieting. The amazon plant world is an endless mysterious and expanding network of creation and wisdom, which we as humans are an essential part of as well. The master plants and trees all communicate differently and share their profound wisdom and teachings with us, while each of them has their own healing properties to share when drinking their extract.

We work mostly with Medicinal Plants like: Tobacco, Chiric Sanango, Bobinsana, Chuchuhuasi, Ajo Sacha, Una de Gato, Mucura, Renaquilla and others. 
Our maestro has used his knowledge and extensive experience to carefully select & offer master plants we revere and trust, to provide the most comprehensive healing journey.

DIET COMMITMENTS AND PREPARATION

With a plant diet, there are instructions and recommendations to to prepare for this journey. The pre-diet begins one month before you arrive in Pucallpa and ends two weeks after we return from the jungle and is practiced in phases. It is extremely important to follow the diet instructions, preparing your body and soul to gain the most optimal effect the diet can provide. Certain foods and medications/drugs have adverse physical effects with the medicine, and certain behaviors can limit your spiritual awakening. Many different traditions practice different diets that can vary, but overall - listen to your body, your spirit and trust that you will get as much out of your experience as you put into it. The diet is an excellent way to practice self-discipline and learn to connect to yourself. Learn more about preparation in the following information.

WHAT IS IN THE MEDICINE BREW

We honor the tradition of ancestral medicine carriers, our teachers and knowledge that came from this sacred medicine. We work within the Cocama and Mestizo lineage, as we cook our medicine in our center, sang with icarus and prayers and respective attention - we thrive for honesty and clarity of knowing what is in our brew. The sacred marriage of the ayahuasca vine and the Chacruna visionary leafs, we also cook with Tobacco rustic, because in our tradition this sacred Tobacco is an true enhancer and protective spirit that the brew goes hand in hand with.

Ayahuasca Vine: Banisteriopsis caapi (yellow and/or red vine)

Chacruna Leaf: Psychotria viridis

Tobacco leafs: Nicotiana rustica

For our other masterplants brews we are cooking on the spot after we diagnose with the participant, this process is beautiful to attend with out master vegetalist cook. To share your intentions and prayers to the medicine, after it is harvested with respect.

We work with different plant teachers like: Chiric Sanango, Bobinsana, Renaquilla, Mucura, Ajo Sacha, Tobacco, Chuchuhuasi, Una de Gato and more...
