The Path of the Plants: Dieting with the Earth’s Ancient Teachers
— A remembrance through The Medicine Tribe
In the quiet folds of the forest, where human footsteps soften and the world becomes breath and rhythm, there are those who still remember. They sit in silence. They drink in reverence. And they listen — not to words, but to the language beneath all language. The plants are speaking.
Master plant dieting is a sacred art. A communion. A vow.
It is not about consuming — it is about being consumed.
By the spirit of a plant. By its song, its silence, its memory.
By the way it sees the world — and you, within it.
To diet with a master plant is to enter a relationship.
Not a metaphorical one — a real one. One that changes you.
It begins in stillness. In restriction. In turning away from the noise of the world so you can hear something older. Something slower. Something true. Through simplicity — of food, of contact, of stimulus — the senses sharpen. The body becomes an instrument. The soul becomes soil.
And then the teacher arrives.
It may come in a dream.
It may come as a vine or a flower.
It may come as a whisper in your bones.
But when it comes, it knows you.
These plants carry the wisdom of tribes who have lived in harmony with the earth for generations untold. They teach us not through force, but through frequency. They show us the sacred architecture of life. The threads between mind and heart, human and nature, self and all.
For the one who diets, the transformation is deep.
Old wounds resurface — not to torment, but to release.
New visions unfold — not for glory, but for guidance.
Clarity emerges — not as doctrine, but as deep knowing.
For the maestros, the diet is a lifelong devotion.
They are not healers because they learned how —
They are healers because the plants chose them,
And they, in turn, chose the plants — again and again.
These maestros become bridges — between worlds, between realms.
They are not just practitioners; they are protectors.
Of knowledge. Of forests. Of songs. Of souls.
And for the tribes, this practice is memory made alive.
A way to keep their stories woven into the roots of the world.
It is how wisdom survives in the face of forgetting.
How reverence stays lit in a world rushing to consume.
But this is not just for them. It is for us. For humanity.
To diet with the plants is to remember how to be in right relationship.
With our bodies. With our ancestors. With our purpose.
With the water. The fire. The air. The stone.
With all that lives and all that holds us.
This is medicine beyond medicine.
It is ceremony. It is ecology. It is soul remembrance.
It is the Earth herself, speaking through the ones who have listened.
And now, perhaps, she is speaking to you.
What is a Master-Plant dieta?
A dieta is a deeper way of connecting to the medicine Ayahuasca, but also to your (higher)self.
A companion (master) plant is taken alongside the Ayahuasca throughout a series of ceremonies, in this caseYou can choose from:
Noya Rao
Chiric Sanango
Bobinsana
chullachaqui
Mapacho
Renaquilla
Marosa (only in Peru at this time)
The dieta is an incredible practice in itself and provides an amazing way to connect with the spirits of the plants.
It also serves as a very powerful remedy for various ailments.
Through the process of dieta the body often times will come back into alignment and various illnesses will begin to heal and correct themselves.
It takes commitment!
During (and some time after) the diet there will be restrictions on food and lifestyle.
During the diet there also will be a period of fasting with a minimum of 24 hours which you can extend at your own choice.
The food will be simple, no salt, no sugar, no dairy, no fat and the amount will be just enough to keep you from tipping over.
The purpose in not to just clean out your system, but also to make it easier for you to receive the subtle energies, messages and maybe even Icaros (songs) of the plant.
A truly beautiful, magical and sometimes challenging path to walk upon, but having these plants as allies in your life will illuminate the path.
The plants will be a mirror and a teacher.
To see your own light, your true potential.
YOU are love, YOU are the medicine!
