What is a Plant Dieta?

We often talk about connecting deeply with plants through Plant Dietas, but what is it?

The practice of Plant Dietas has transformed our lives; nourishing our inner seeds of divinity, facilitating deep healing, and allowing us to continually open and blossom in our lives.

A plant Dieta is like a "plant Vipassana" - a sacred sanctuary where you enter into communion with a master plant. During the Dieta, you will cultivate your relationship with the spirit of the plant through fasting, solitude, silence, meditation, and drinking the plant's extract. The spirit of the plant will be your teacher, sharing its wisdom & spiritual medicine with you, teaching you how to raise your consciousness and step deeper into your life's path.

A Maestro / Maestra: A plant healer with a deep connection to the plants & experience is essential. While the plant becomes the teacher, the Maestro is the guide who helps you to communicate, understand & deepen your connection to Spirit. He/she ensures the proper connection to the Spirit during the Dieta and seals it afterwards.

A Dieta is done in isolation (or near isolation) in nature for weeks and months where you emerge yourself deep in the embrace of nature and your plant. This profound practice is strict, challenging & very rewarding. It depends on your dedication, your prayer, your intention and of course the plant and the Maestro. It will guide and teach you on your path and share medicine with and through you. The more you cultivate, honor and align your diet & your own seed of divinity, the more both will blossom in your life.

After the process, the term "Plant Diet" refers not only to the time spent in "Plant Vipassana," but also to the relationship with the plant spirit that you now carry with you.

Similar to our Plant Immersions, there is another type of Plant Dieta called "Soft Dieta" (Dieta Suave), where you do not go into isolation, but stay in your normal life and home. This type of connection is very different because you are in contact with many other energies, work, children, etc., and you do not have the focus, silence, or deep immersion that a full diet in nature provides. Because the Immersion/Soft Dieta is in your everyday life, it will enter into other parts of your being & be profound in a different way. It makes it possible to do the Dieta while having small children or a work situation that you cannot leave for an extended period of time. The integration of an Immersion/Soft Dieta tends to be smoother since you are already in your everyday life and not coming home from a month of isolation in the wilderness.
