Shamanic Initiation

Step into the heart of the Peruvian Amazon for a 26-day immersive retreat rooted in the sacred traditions of the Shipibo lineage. Guided by an experienced and respected Maestro, this spiritual apprenticeship invites you into a deep and transformative relationship with the world of Master Plants through an authentic Master Plant Dieta.

This journey goes far beyond traditional learning—it’s an intimate exploration of the natural world, its unseen energies, and the ancient practices of Amazonian plant medicine. In solitude and silence, you’ll cultivate a profound bond with the plant spirit you diet, receiving guidance that can support your path for years to come.

The retreat combines traditional ceremonies, in-depth teachings, and communal sharing to provide a holistic and grounded understanding of the shamanic healing path. These teachings are offered with respect and care, ensuring the integrity and depth of the lineage are honored at every step.

Please note: while this experience may be deeply impactful, it does not grant the title of Shaman. The path of becoming a healer is a lifelong process of personal growth, discipline, and devotion. This retreat is an invitation to begin—or deepen—that path with clarity, humility, and connection.

More than a retreat, this is a sacred passage toward spiritual awakening, plant wisdom, and ancestral knowledge.

Embarking on a Master Plant dieta is a journey into the heart of the forest and the soul. The choice of which Master Plant to partner with is typically guided by the Maestro or Maestra, drawing on centuries of wisdom and insight. However, the call of a Master Plant can resonate deeply within you, emerging through dreams or visions, an ethereal invitation beckoning your spirit. At AYA Healing, we welcome you to explore connections with sacred plants like Noya Rao, Bobinsana, Chiric Sanango, Ayahuma, Marusa, and Chullachaqui.

The core mission of your Shamanic Initiation is to forge a bond with your chosen plant spirit, a relationship meant to endure a lifetime.

Like any deep and meaningful connection, the depth of this relationship is sculpted by the dedication and sincerity you bring to this union. Engaging wholeheartedly with your Plant Spirit, you immerse yourself in a spiritual dialogue, unlocking ancient wisdom and transformative energies. This journey is about uncovering truths and receiving insights, guiding you towards profound healing and understanding.

Upon the completion of your dieta, the spiritual safeguards are meticulously set in place by your curandero or teacher. This ceremonial act is crucial, ensuring the preservation of the transformative insights and healing you have achieved.

Who Should Embark on This Sacred Plant Dieta?

Our Shamanic Initiation Plant Dieta beckons to those drawn to the ancient paths of Shipibo Shamanism, whether you’re seasoned in the practice of Master Plants dietas or eager to begin this sacred journey. This training is an invitation to those prepared to commit to the profound, respecting the dietary and lifestyle strictures that frame this spiritual expedition.

The dieta is not just a retreat; it’s a pledge to transformation, requiring you to step away from everyday indulgences and distractions. This act of renunciation signals to the plant spirit your readiness for change, your openness to receive its powerful gifts of healing, guidance, and even new abilities. It’s a testament to your resolve, a declaration that you are ready to embark on a path of healing, growth, and profound spiritual discovery.
