THE MEDICINE OF BOBINSANA
|
THE MEDICINE OF THE VINE
|
The Grandmother master plant of the Amazon is known as “The Vine of the Soul.” She is the ultimate teacher that guides us back to our truth, asking us to release anything that is not serving our highest evolution. She teaches us to navigate all of life’s challenges with confidence & courage, and transmits power & strength. She's a beautiful medicine to support our state of mind and mental health.
In this soft dieta, you have the option to micro-dose with her in a non-psychoactive form following a 4-week protocol. Micro-dosing with her, opens up deeper meditative and flow states. She works synergistically with bobinsana to uproot and heal deeply held wounds. She encourages us to see new perspectives on life and opens us to make lasting changes in our lives. On a physical level, micro-dosing resets neural pathways & the nervous system; and helps with depression, anxiety and insomnia. |
THE POWER OF THIS WORK
|
Bobinsana & the vine are powerful teachers who transmit feminine leadership. One that has been lost in many ways in our modern world. Through their guidance, we reconnect with the fluid, emergent, intuitive and wild creative power of the feminine. The power that manifests when we release the old stories and emotions that we’ve been carrying for so long. Both our personal healing, as well as the healing of the collective.
The soft-dieta and micro-dosing combined create a safe, slower paced approach that allows us to work through old traumas and defense patterns in a sustainable manner that can be integrated as we go. We women thrive in community, and are uplifted by simply being in energetic connection with other feminine beings (plants and humans). The group energy field in this journey amplifies our personal and collective healing and intentions. Women have a collective history of not stepping up into our calling, our power, and our voices. As we share our learnings together, we resonate and inspire other women to step up into their fullest & highest expression. |

WHY DO A SOFT DIETA?
|
The journey is focused around a 10 day "soft" diet - which is a modified version of the Amazonian plant dieta. These dietas are the traditional way in which healers learn the healing properties of the plants - by ingesting decoctions of the plants and communicating with the plant spirits. We will also be micro-dosing with the Grandmother vine (optional).
A soft dieta can be done safely from your own home, in your everyday life. You get to experience the medicine and magic of a plant teacher, learning how the plant can guide you in your life, your work, and your relationships. In a soft dieta, you create a sacred container to work with the spirit of the plant. You eat a simple cleansing diet, limit your interactions with the outside world to your minimal responsibilities, and create energetic space to welcome and invite in the teacher plant bobinsana. You will feel the presence of the plant's spirit as it builds in your energy field. You'll also continue feeling the plants after the dieta is over, developing a life-long relationship with them. For this reason, there are dietary guidelines for ~10 days after the dieta is over. |
Disclaimer: Please research and consult your doctor if you have medical conditions or are taking medications. Ideally, during dieta, no medications are consumed. 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 you have 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 and allowing the intelligence of the group energy field to guide us. The power of being in a group is that we amplify and learn from others' work with these medicines.
Private 1:1 Sessions: Included is one private 90 minute Energy Clearing & Alignment session. Here you receive personalized guidance, energetic clearing, and deeper support. In these sessions, we dive into your energy field to clear out old emotions & thoughts, find truth & clarity, connect to your soul guidance and to communicate with the spirit of these plants. We work with an intention, a theme, a challenge or with whatever is arising for you during the diet. For deeper support and guidance, I suggest adding on an additional 90-minute private session that can be used anytime during the dieta, or in the integration phase. |

FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS

"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’s 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. The diet and lifestyle restrictions are less intense (though there are some depending on the plant you are working with and how deep you want to go). If you consider a dieta more like a marriage, micro-dosing would be a dating relationship, where you are getting to know each other. What are the food & lifestyle limitations? 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. |
Why have a guide?
Teachers of mine have shared that the work of the plants is only about 30-40% of the work. The remaining 60-70% is the work of the teacher, the guide, or the healer - who is connecting with the plant spirit and making sure that the energies are moving in an aligned way. Their job (my job) is to open the space, make the connection with the plant spirit, help hold the shamanic space and guide the process, and close the space. You would want a guide who has a dedicated relationship with the plant, an understanding of how the energies / spirits work, and someone you trust. Ideally, you find someone who you resonate with and who has had adequate training at the physical, energetic and spiritual level. While many think that they can simply "take the plant - what else is there to it?" - I do not recommend this unless you've been trained to work in this way in all dimensions. For myself, I have been engaging and training in these practices for nearly 15 years, and I still choose to work with teachers and guides. As know I can go deeper in my learning with someone else who has cultivated relationships with these plants, and who holds a safe space that I can trust. Will this fit my schedule? You will have some flexibility to meet your schedule. If you are micro-dosing only, you will have more flexibility to navigate any travels and events. If you are planning to do a 10-day soft dieta (alone or in addition to micro-dosing), you will need a solid 10-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 any time after February 16, and ending before March 16. How many people will the group be limited to? The maximum group size is 8-12 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. 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. |
