PLANT DIETA IMMERSION

Join us for an 11-Day Immersion into the world of plant dieting held in the palero tradition of Maestro Alberto. Designed for experienced dieters, this retreat features 6 Ayahuasca ceremonies & a series of specialized workshops exploring the dieta process in-depth.

Participants will select from available plant medicines to create their own dieta preparation along with Maestro Alberto & our medicine team. Intended to be both experiential & educational, this journey is for those looking to deepen their understanding of plant medicine and learn how to get the most out of this transformational practice.

PLANT DIETA IMMERSION

This unique journey includes the following offerings:

  • Introduction to tree medicine workshop

  • Specialized plant medicine selection: choose the plants you feel called to diet

  • How to work with Ayahuasca & tree medicines together
