Master Plant Diet Summary
A Master Plant Dieta is a sacred shamanic practice that involves forming a deep relationship with a specific plant spirit - and this one is all about Damiana! This practice began in the Amazonian jungle many generations ago, and is designed to facilitate personal growth, healing, and spiritual connection beyond our wildest dreams. Engaging in a Master Plant Dieta involves a strict process of purification, which both benefits physical healing and helps us connect more deeply to Damiana. She is a wildly potent healer of trauma, and a sweet divine feminine ally to help connect more deeply to our authentic selves.
What is a Master Plant Dieta?
A Master Plant Dieta is a sacred shamanic practice that invites you to connect deeply with the consciousness and spirit of a specific plant, known as a Master Plant. Rooted in the ancient traditions of the Amazon jungle, this practice has been used for centuries by indigenous cultures to foster a profound and healing relationship between humans and plants. Engaging in a Master Plant Dieta involves a process of purification, discipline, and dedication, where you commit to working intimately with a plant spirit to receive its teachings, guidance, and medicine. This journey is not just about physical benefits but also about spiritual growth and self-discovery, as you open yourself to the wisdom and magic of the plant kingdom.
Damiana: Trauma-Healer and Aphrodisiac
Damiana (Turnera diffusa) has a rich history that dates back to ancient times, particularly in the regions where she is native, such as Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. Indigenous cultures, including the Mayans and Aztecs, valued Damiana for her medicinal properties, working with her in traditional healing practices to address ailments like digestive issues and respiratory problems, as well as to enhance sexual life force as a natural aphrodisiac. The plant holds cultural and spiritual significance, often incorporated into rituals and ceremonies that foster a connection with nature and promotes spiritual healing. In the 19th century, Damiana gained popularity among European explorers and botanists, who noted her benefits and began to introduce her to herbal medicine practices in Europe and the United States. Today, Damiana is widely available as an herbal partner promoting relaxation and vitality, reflecting her enduring legacy as both a medicinal plant and a shamanic ally.
The Damiana Master Plant Diet Experience
The Damiana Master Plant Diet Experience is a unique and transformative program designed to help you connect deeply with the Damiana plant spirit through a traditional dieta. We will be working with Turnera diffusa. Over the course of 3 weeks (or so - this is adjustable as needed), you will embark on a guided journey that includes daily ceremonies and rituals, a restricted diet to attune your body, and daily connection to Damiana, either through ingestion and/or essential oils. This experience offers ample opportunities for deep introspection, meditation, and contemplation, all under the guidance of two experienced facilitators - Lindsay Calliandra Rose and Natalhie Ruiz. By immersing yourself in this sacred practice, you will unlock the profound teachings and healing potential of Damiana.
This dieta is held in the old traditional way with sincere reverence and expertise. Even if you’ve dieted Cypress previously, this is a gorgeously powerful and balanced container that will undoubtedly invite you to know the magical medicine of this in a wholly new and impactful way.
