Master Plant Diet Summary
At PMP, Master Plant Diets are our favorite way to merge with nature — they offer an unprecedented opportunity to merge with nature. These experiences teach us who we are at our authentic cores, and the magic of this incredible world we are blessed to be part of. Rooted in ancient Amazonian shamanic practice, these sacred journeys can reshape body, mind, and heart; they’re intimate, challenging, and extraordinarily special. Open to anyone from curious newcomer to seasoned practitioner, a dieta invites you to bond with a powerful plant spirit and travel inward with a small, supportive circle of fellow explorers.
Shamanic guide Kat Courtney will lead an intimate group of plant-lovers in this month-long exploration of Ceylon Cinnamon, a warm, powerful plant ally whose medicine invites us into deeper relationship with vitality, protection, abundance, sensuality, and the fire within. Known as “true cinnamon,” Ceylon Cinnamon has been treasured for centuries as both a precious medicine and sacred aromatic plant.
When working with Cinnamon in a dieta setting, we have an opportunity to explore the energy of inner warmth and activation — tending the fire that moves us forward while learning how to hold that fire with intention. Cinnamon invites us to awaken what has become stagnant, reconnect with our desires and creativity, and cultivate a deeper sense of confidence, presence, and aliveness.
In this social dieta, you will journey with Cinnamon over two to three weeks in between Thanksgiving and Christmas, which allows us to balance the indulgences of the season and connect with one of its bona fide stars. We will allow the relationship to unfold slowly and intentionally. Together, we’ll explore the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual teachings of this beautiful plant through meditation, journaling, intentional practices, dream recall, and community sharing.
We will be working specifically with Ceylon Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum). We recommend purchasing organic Ceylon Cinnamon sticks. Our favorite source is through Mountain Rose Herbs.
Here’s how the process will work: Beginning on or around Sunday, November 29th, Kat will schedule individual dieta openings with each participant, which happen through the power of song and intention. The group will meet for five Sundays during the dieta via Zoom, including a final integration gathering on January 3rd after taking a week off for the holidays.
We will provide a protocol document outlining food instructions and specific guidance for working with Ceylon Cinnamon, including how and when to work with him, as well as creative practices for deepening your connection. In addition to eating clean, organic, simple foods, participants will abstain from sexual activities, media, heavy energies, and other distractions for the duration of the dieta. Each Sunday at 9 am PT / 12 pm ET, we will gather for 90 minutes to connect, share our experiences, and explore the teachings Cinnamon is revealing through our individual and collective journeys.
Kat will personally hold the diets for every participant, checking in with the connection and listening for messages from the plant each morning and evening. She will also be available throughout the process should additional support be needed. Diets will be closed individually no later than December 24th, allowing space for the holidays before we return as a group for our final integration session on Sunday, January 3rd, 2027.
