About this Retreat

Your Guides

Details of this retreat

Embark on a profound journey of introspection, healing, and self-discovery guided by the sacred traditions of the Mamancunawa lineage.

This Amazonian master plant dieta offers a deeply transformative experience, allowing you to cultivate a stronger connection with yourself and the ancient wisdom of the plants. Each plant carries its own light and healing power, addressing specific challenges while guiding you toward clarity and profound truths.

At the heart of this dieta is Grandfather Tobacco, a revered and powerful plant ally known for working on physical, mental, energetic, and spiritual levels. In Amazonian tradition, healing begins at the spiritual and energetic level before manifesting in the body. Tobacco clears energetic blockages, supporting overall well-being and deeper self-awareness.

Embark on a profound 7-day journey of introspection, healing, and self-discovery, guided by the sacred traditions of the Mamancunawa lineage.

Lorena Renaud, a trained tabaquera-curandera, will facilitate a traditional plant dieta- a deep and intentional process of connecting with plant teachers while following a clean, simplified diet.

Free from salt, sugar, oil, and other stimulants, this way of eating supports energetic clarity and allows the plants to work on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

Upon booking, Lorena offers a private consultation to share more about the dieta process and the role of tobacco.

Grandfather Tobacco, a revered master plant teacher, helps clear internal blockages, catalyze insight, and bring alignment across body, mind, and spirit.

In the Amazonian tradition, healing begins in the energetic field and gradually integrates into the physical and emotional body.
Tobacco’s role is to protect, guide, and illuminate the path.

The dieta creates space to listen inward, reflect, and release what no longer serves. Emotional or physical purging, such as vomiting, diarrhea, crying, shaking, or vivid dreaming, may occur as the body and spirit cleanse and reset.

Support is always available throughout the journey, and the structure is held with gentleness, safety, and care.

Our intimate retreat offerings are designed to provide the attention, guidance, and connection you deserve, creating a deeply immersive and transformative experience tailored to your unique needs and aspirations.

We open the doors of our home to those seeking peace, healing, and security. Here, you'll experience a simple yet profound lifestyle and an opportunity to engage with nature’s rhythms and cultivate harmony, balance, and a deeper sense of presence.

Depending on your stay, you may find yourself as the only guest or sharing the space with a small, like-minded community of other guests, staff, and community members. Either way, you’ll be embraced by warmth, care, and an authentic, personalized experience.
