TRADITIONAL DIETA
SAMAKEI
A time of solitude, study, and deep connection guided by the forest and ancestral traditions.
What is a Dieta ?
What is a Dieta?
A dieta is a sacred agreement between you, a teacher plant, and the spirit of the forest. It is a deep study of oneself, a journey inward held in the embrace of the Yawanawá tradition. This path invites you to quiet the world, to listen deeply, and to remember who you are beneath all noise.
Who is This For?
This path is not about escape or achievement. It is for those who feel a deep inner call. For those who long to listen. For those ready to enter a time of devotion, to walk quietly with the forest, and to be transformed by its teachings.
You do not need to be experienced. You only need to be sincere.
Why Enter a Dieta?
Some enter to heal. Others to remember. All are called by something greater, a whisper in the heart, a pull toward stillness. In the dieta we step out of the known into a sacred container of solitude and simplicity. In silence, dreams awaken. In the songs of the forest, the soul begins to speak.
