FOR WOMEN ON THE MEDICINE PATH
8-WEEK GROUP JOURNEY
FEBRUARY 25 - APRIL 15, 2025
|
You are invited to embark on a powerful journey with Bobinsana - one of the Amazon's most beautiful and revered medicines. This 8-week soft dieta is for women on the medicine path—whether you are working with plant medicines, navigating deep healing, or reconnecting with the ancient wisdom of the Earth. If you are feeling called to deepen your feminine medicine, wisdom, & power - this is for you!
It’s not just about working with plants; it’s about courageously channeling your unique gifts into the world. Whether you’re a healer, creative, leader, medicine carrier, or sensitive soul, this journey invites you to drop into your heart, awaken compassion, and embody your true essence. Together, we will explore and embody the fluid, intuitive, and nurturing qualities of the feminine - receptivity, deep listening, and the ability to move with life’s natural rhythms. These qualities, often undervalued in a world that prioritizes speed, visibility, and linear action, hold a profound power to transform, heal, and connect us to the deep wisdom of all that is. |
|
Feminine power does not demand attention - it moves through the unseen, inviting resonance and guiding with intuition and knowing. It is the courage to hold space for the unknown, the grace to align with life and the Earth, and the wisdom to trust in the emergence of what is needed.
This journey is an invitation to reclaim this power within yourself, to step fully into your unique medicine, and to offer it to a world yearning for balance and healing.
THE HEART OF SACRED DIETA
|
In this soft dieta, you will:
|
THE MEDICINE OF BOBINSANA
|
Bobinsana (Calliandra angustifolia), lovingly known as "Sirenita Bobinsana," is a Master Teacher Plant revered by the people of the Amazon. This graceful spirit of the water thrives near streams and rivers and is easily recognized by her stunning, bright pink flowers. For this journey, we will work with wild-harvested, ethically sourced Bobinsana from the San Martin Region of Peru.
Bobinsana is an incredible and divine feminine spirit. Her medicine helps us free ourselves from places we limit ourselves in our expression, our joy, our creative power, and how we see ourselves. She teaches us deep compassion, love, & empathy. Her wisdom clears the rigidity of the mind, cleanses the emotional field, and reconnects us to an embodied way of knowing. Bobinsana opens the heart, helping us break through unconscious patterns and mental protections that keep us stuck. With her guidance, we learn to live in the truth of our hearts, no matter the circumstances around us. She also strengthens our ability to honor energetic boundaries and offers a new, aligned way of communicating. She cleanses the the womb and washes away old emotions, stories, and traumas with love and compassion. She helps us reconnect to the pure, creative power within each of us, so that we can create a life filled with love and purpose. She also enhances dreamwork, activating lucid dreaming and the ability to learn through our dreamtime. On a physical level, Bobinsana stimulates and reinforces the nervous system, purifies the blood, strengthens bodily functions, and alleviates pain and fatigue. Traditionally, the people of the Amazon have used Bobinsana as a tincture to treat rheumatism, arthritis, colds, uterine disorders, and edema. The bark is also grated into baths to boost resistance to sickness. |

THE MEDICINE OF THE VINE
|
The Ayahuasca Vine (Banisteriopsis caapi) is revered as "The Vine of the Soul." She is a profound and wise teacher who guides us back to our truth, inviting us to release anything that does not serve our highest evolution. Her medicine encourages us to navigate life’s challenges with confidence, courage, and grace, transmitting power and strength.
In this soft dieta, you have the option to micro-dose with Ayahuasca Vine in a non-psychoactive form (100% legal) following a 4-week protocol. This approach allows her medicine to open you into deeper meditative and flow states, offering insight and clarity in a grounded and accessible way. Micro-dosing works synergistically with Bobinsana to uproot and heal deeply held wounds, helping us see new perspectives and make lasting changes in our lives. On a physical level, the Vine supports the resetting of neural pathways and the nervous system, promoting balance and harmony. Her medicine has been known to help with depression, anxiety, and insomnia, restoring a sense of calm and well-being. The Vine invites us into a state of transformation, not just in how we think but in how we embody courage, strength, and alignment in our daily lives. |
THE MEDICINE OF MAPACHO
|
Mapacho (Nicotiana rustica), the sacred Amazonian tobacco, is a powerful and protective plant spirit, sometimes considered a Grandfather energy. Tobacco holds a container for deep work, stabilizing and anchoring us in clarity, strength, and direction. Known for his ability to cut through illusions, Mapacho brings us into alignment with truth and helps us navigate our path with confidence and purpose. His medicine brings harmony to the fluid, emergent energies of the feminine with focus, protection, and balance, ensuring that the journey remains steady and aligned.
In this soft dieta, we will work with Mapacho in cleansing forms—through water and smoke. His medicine purifies the energetic field, clears stagnant energies, and creates a safe and sacred space for transformation. Mapacho’s spirit teaches discipline, focus, and respect. His presence reminds us of the importance of intention, balance, and integrity as we walk our medicine path. He supports us in holding energetic boundaries and invites us to communicate with authenticity and precision. |
|
THE POWER OF THIS WORK
Bobinsana, the Vine, and Mapacho come together as profound teachers, guiding us to reclaim feminine power & leadership—qualities often hidden or undervalued in a world that prioritizes structure, speed, and visible, immediate results. Through their guidance, we reconnect with the intuitive, emergent and wild creative power of the feminine. We cultivate deep listening, resonance, and inner alignment, creating balance, wholeness, and a deeper connection to ourselves and the Earth.
Through this journey, you will:
Women share a collective history of holding back from fully stepping into our power, voices, and unique callings. This journey is an opportunity to rewrite that story—for ourselves and for the collective. As we share our learnings together, we inspire and empower one another to rise into our fullest and highest expressions.
Through this journey, you will:
- Release old stories and emotional patterns to unlock your creative power & authentic expression.
- Work through old traumas & defenses in a sustainable, slower-paced, integrative way.
- Reclaim your natural ability to embrace the unknown, trust your own inner rhythms, and align with your authentic truth.

WHY DO A SOFT DIETA?
|
The journey centers around a 7-10-day "soft" dieta—a modified version of the traditional Amazonian plant dieta. In these sacred practices, healers ingest plant decoctions and communicate with the plant spirits to learn their healing properties.
A soft dieta offers the profound experience of working with plant medicine safely from the comfort of your home, integrated into your everyday life. It allows you to connect deeply with a plant teacher and to discover how it can guide you in your life, work, and relationships. In a soft dieta, you create a sacred container to welcome the spirit of the plant. This involves eating a simple cleansing diet, limiting interactions with the outside world to your essential responsibilities, and cultivating energetic space through ritual and practice to build a relationship with the plants. As the plant’s spirit integrates into your energy field, you’ll feel its presence building. This connection doesn’t end when the dieta ends; it deepens over time, creating a life-long relationship with the plant’s wisdom. To honor this process, there are additional dietary guidelines to follow for a minimum of 7-10 days after the dieta ends. |
Disclaimer: Please research and consult your doctor if you have medical conditions or are taking medications. Ideally, during dieta, no medications are consumed (though some are allowed - reach out to me for more info.) Bobinsana is traditionally used as a contraceptive in Peru. While there is no research to confirm this, those currently seeking to get pregnant are advised against taking this plant. A medical consultation may be required before joining this soft dieta if there are any contraindications.

SUPPORT & GUIDANCE

We meet online as a group over 8 weeks. These meetings will be held in sacred space, and include guided meditations, energetic support & healing, and integration. We will be connecting with the spirit of Bobinsana, the Vine & Mapacho and allowing the intelligence of the group energy field to guide our journey. The power of being in a group lies in the amplification of personal and collective healing, as we learn from one another’s experiences with these medicines.
Private 1:1 Sessions: Included in your journey is one private 90-minute Energy Clearing & Alignment session. This personalized session provides deeper guidance, energetic clearing, attunement to the plants' energies, and insights tailored to your unique process. Together, we dive into your energy field to release old emotions and thoughts, uncover truth and clarity, connect to your soul’s guidance, and deepen your relationship with the plant spirits. |
OPTIONAL DEEP DIVE
The Deep Dive includes two additional 90-minute private sessions, which can be scheduled anytime during the dieta or in the integration phase. This option is ideal for those who may be:
- Delving deeply into their unique relationship with these medicines.
- Exploring nuanced layers of healing & subtle energy that require focused attention. (Especially supportive for highly sensitives and empaths).
- Refining their understanding of their personal medicine and learning how to channel it into the world.
- Healers, facilitators, or those called to work in the subtle shamanic realms, seeking to cultivate deeper skills in connecting with plant spirits & working with energy.

"I’m learning lessons about giving and receiving, right relationship, and stewarding creative life force energy. I've also been exploring entanglements and interdependence. Bobinsana has been a gentle, but strong guide. Very light and grounded. She's helping me integrate all aspects of my being, bridging soul and humanness through the heart. I feel much lighter and clearer on all levels of my being. A reset of my digestive system. A reset of my subtle body. Noticing a huge uptick in joy and energy. Also more clarity on priorities - I feel like I've been pulled out of some of the ruts I'd fallen into and see more choice and thus more alignment with my values. There's a beautiful balance of guidance and healthy containment [in the group container] with the ability to meet you where you're at and leave you the freedom of your own experience. Plenty of space to ask questions and receive deeper support if you need it, but also lots of encouragement to build your own relationship with the plant and find your way.”

"My nervous system feels refreshed and uplifted after the diet. I feel a softening & lightness in my overall healing process, more joy and heart opening, and a greater sense of ease. I felt Bobinsana really guide me in deepening into my heart, finding integrity and the courage to move from this place in my life. I loved how Jaime held the space. Her style supported me in deepening my own relationship with the plant, and offered what felt like the right amount of guidance that allowed me to step into cultivating this. Her words would often stay with me and show up later as doorways to deepening with the plant and in my own process. I feel resonant with how Jaime relates with plants and appreciate the integrity and wisdom she carries that feels to teach a respectful, true, and grounded relationship with the plant world. This is how I hope for people to get to know the teachings of plants, and our place in and right relationship with the natural world."

“I learned that the plants help to work with me over the long haul. They crack a wound open slightly, to offer a peek into a part of myself that needs examination and ultimate clearing. I learned that I could diet a plant at home with as much depth, commitment, and direct connection to the plant kingdom as strongly and immediately as I could in the jungle. Bobinsana is patient but effective in how she worked with me and my attachments to slowly peel away at them to expose them piece-by-piece and deal with them manageably. It is up to me to decide when to let go of those attachments that cause suffering, stagnation, or illness.... I thought that I would easily get derailed with all the distractions of living in the city and dealing with typical life demands as a single parent but…it helped a great deal to stick to the guidelines of the dieta and stay on track. I loved the energy work and the feedback offered during each session. Although this dieta can be done alone, it was nice to do it with others, even remotely, as everyone's energies and intentions are added to the richness of the container and the overall experience."

FAQs
|
What is the Difference of Micro-dosing vs. a Plant Dieta?
A plant dieta initiates a strong connection with a plant spirit. It follows traditional practice of opening a contract in the spirit world, to work with the medicine of the plant. In Amazonian traditions (and there are other traditions who also do this in their own ways), it’s the process of creating a very clean ceremonial sacred space to learn from the plant. This requires following strict food and lifestyle guidelines for both making sure there are not physical contraindications, but also to create a very clean energetic space, so you can sense, hear and feel the vibration and teaching of the plants. The plants work on the level of spirit and subtle energy (what is termed by some as the “shamanic realms”), so you have to have a clean space, in order for you to sensitively perceive these levels. The strictest is an isolation dieta, done in the Amazon under the guidance of a maestro/a, curandero/a. These teachers and healers have long deep and dedicated relationships with the plants, and know how to navigate the shamanic realms and guide the work of the plant in a safe, healing way. Doing an at-home “soft” dieta, or what’s often called an attunement, is a modified version of the traditional isolation dieta. You enter into a sacred container with a plant spirit, while still engaging in your normal everyday life. There are still dietary and lifestyle requirements to keep the space clean and aligned, but they are less stringent that in an isolation dieta. Unless you already have your own practice, these are also done under the guidance of a teacher, healer or guide who has cultivated a relationship with the plants. (Note: Not all plants are well suited for at-home dietas.) Micro-dosing is a gentler, more accessible way to get to know a plant. It’s taking a small dose of the medicine following a protocol over a certain amount of time. We are working with micro-doses of the vine here to weave and seal the work of bobinsana into your being. What are the food & lifestyle limitations? Check out the Basic Guidelines here. When working with the plants, you will be required to eat a clean diet that follows traditional, yet modified guidelines (no chili, no alcohol, no caffeine, no sugar, no fermented foods, no strong herbal supplements, no sexual intercourse or masturbation & more.) On the days off, when you are not micro-dosing or in the soft dieta, you will have more flexibility. These limitations are not only to be able to hear and learn the frequencies of the plant teachers, but also for any medical contraindications. In most cases, even those with dietary or minor health challenges, my medical advisor and I have developed a plan that can work to meet individual needs. Please reach out to me if you have questions. What will I be eating? During the dieta and while micro-dosing, you can eat organic vegetables, fruit (limited), legumes, lentils, mung dal, rice, quinoa, oats, seeds, and other grains. You will also have some limited quantities of organic oil and salt. For those who need more protein, bone broths and fish are possible in limited amounts. It's a detox for the mind-body-spirit, and nearly everyone benefits from releasing any attachments to foods. In most cases, even those with special dietary considerations, my medical advisor and I have developed a plan that can work to meet individual needs. Please reach out to me if you have questions. What about sexual energy & exchange? During these 4 weeks of working with the plants, you will NOT be able to engage in sexual energetic practices—whether with another person or alone. Abstaining from sexual energy practices is essential to harness and master your own energy, preserve the integrity of your connection with the plant spirit, and deepen your healing and growth. Sexual energy practices can disrupt the subtle and transformative work of the plants, potentially causing unintended consequences. This dieta is a sacred commitment to excavating old patterns and wounds, and it requires your full dedication to your own healing and awakening path. If you feel unable to honor this guideline, I kindly ask that you refrain from participating in this container. |
Why have a guide?
As one of my teachers shared, the work of the plants themselves accounts for only about 30–40% of the process. The remaining 60–70% relies on the teacher, guide, or healer—whose role is to open the connection with the plant spirit, ensure the energies move in an aligned way, and hold the shamanic space throughout the journey. My role includes opening the space and the connection with the plant spirit, holding and guiding the process, and finally closing the space to ensure integration and safety. It’s essential to work with a guide who has a dedicated relationship with the plant, a deep understanding of how the energies and spirits operate, and someone you can trust. Ideally, this is someone you resonate with, who has undergone adequate training on physical, energetic, and spiritual levels. While it may seem simple to “just take the plant—what else is there to it?” I do not recommend this unless you have been trained to work with the plants across all dimensions. I have been engaging and training in these practices for nearly 15 years, and I still choose to work with advanced teachers. It allows me to be able to go deeper in my own learning with someone who is more experienced. has cultivated relationship with the plants and holds a safe and aligned space for the work. Will this fit my schedule? You will have some flexibility to meet your schedule. Meaning the start date of the micro-dosing and soft dieta are somewhat flexible. For the dieta portion, you will need a solid 10-14 days where you can follow food limitations (will need to mostly be cooking for yourself). The recommended time period for beginning these 10-days is between March 12 - 31. However if you end any time before April 8, this works fine. How many people will the group be limited to? The maximum group size is 10-14 people. I prefer to guide this work in small intimate groups, so that the group energy field is cohesive, contained and as supportive as possible for the individual and collective healing and learning process. I am on medications and / or have a medical condition - can I still participate? It depends. Some of the plants are possible to work with on some medications. I work with a medical advisor, so if you are on medications or have an existing health condition, we can see if it's a fit for you. It is ultimately your responsibility to obtain professional medical consultation for your condition. In most cases (but not all), my medical advisor and I have developed a plan that can work to meet individual needs. Please reach out to me if you have questions. Can I do this in my normal everyday life? Yes! This is designed to navigate in your everyday life. The plants are gentle enough to work with, but do require your attention and care. During the 10-day soft dieta it is recommended to not be traveling, and to minimize your social activities. You can live your normal life with your responsibilities, but be mindful during these 10 days especially of energetic exchanges, loud environments, & stressful work as you will be very sensitive. It's advisable to plan to take more time to yourself and in nature. Even if it's a afternoon or day off from work, you will be grateful for the extra time to deepen into your practice. Can I work with other plant or frog medicines, or psychedelics? No, this is absolutely NOT allowed during this container. Please review the Basic Guidelines here. This is for both 1) spirit interactions and 2) physical reactions. There can be dangerous medical contraindications with combining medicines. And we are deepening into plant spirit medicine, which requires a focus and commitment to learning from a plant teacher without interference, so that you can hear, feel and experience the plant. |
