Post dieta : stay and integrate after ayahuasca retreat or master plant dieta

I'm afraid that most words I can think of do not come close to how grateful I am for taking this journey of self-discovery and healing. It can be scary taking a deep look inside yourself. The staff and facilitators at the Psychonauta Foundation were absolutely amazing. From the moment I arrived I felt welcomed and loved. They truly cared about my needs and supported me the entire journey. I just met them and now I feel like they were always my family. The compassion and empathy were overwhelming and made my fears disappear so that I may receive the healing I needed. Thank you, Psychonauta Foundation. I feel my life is forever changed for the better and I could not have done it without you.

Brilliant retreat with a great team and very knowledgeable facilitators. Truly a life changing experience!

I used to be someone who never believed in spiritual experiences. To me, it always sounded like “esoteric nonsense” – until I decided to try it for myself. Today, I am endlessly grateful that I took this journey.

Through Ayahuasca I was able to discover something profound: the spiritual soul truly exists – and I was able to see and feel it. Since then, I have overcome many of my fears, released blockages, and I feel freer than ever before. It was an indescribably powerful and positive experience that I can only recommend to everyone – especially to those who are ready to face their fears.

The guidance on site was wonderful. Rabia supported me with incredible kindness and mental strength, and Tatamundo carried everything with such calmness and professionalism that I always felt safe and in good hands.

The community itself was a true gift: people from all over the world, open-hearted, kind, and authentic. Even though I am usually a rather closed-off person who tends to stay on my own, I felt immediately welcomed in this group.

For me, this journey was a deeply transformative experience that I will never forget. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the Psychonauta Foundation and to everyone who accompanied me along the way.

Life changing trip does not cover it. I came here because I felt a calling from God to heal my wounds. I spent 25 years living in pain under the darkness of trauma. That sounds dramatic af but my childhood was rough. I spent so long punishing myself for crimes I didn’t commit. I was living with the belief I was not meant to be alive.

Everything changed here during my 10 day stay on the silent dieta. It was tough and scary at times. the plant medicine gave me what I needed. The silence allowed me to gain wisdom and process the knowledge I received during ceremonies. I left feeling reborn. I come home feeling clean. I approached it with respect, keeping my diet a week before the retreat, and a week after.

This is tough work. It’s not easy to feel isolated during the dieta. But it was exactly what I needed.
After the dieta and my 4 plant ceremonies, I stayed for another week with the folks on the open retreat for integration time. I’m so thankful I stayed longer to allow myself time in nature to process all the changes. I come home victorious! If you feel a calling to come heal, this is the right place.

The shamans are full of wisdom. Their songs will stay with me forever. Tata Mundo is as wise as anyone you could ever meet. Just his presence brought comfort to us all. Lucia and Ferli are angles sent from god. All the staff, the food, the accommodations, everything worked like a symphony to allow myself to heal decades of wounds and trauma.

When I searched for a place to come and do this work, something told me this was the right place. I’m glad I followed my intuition. What a blessing to experience. This is a holy place to visit.

The dieta is not easy!! Please know you will have to face yourself and that is scary. If you’re willing to do the work, THIS is the place.

When I arrived to Iquitos and spent the night there before the retreat, I met many people walking the streets. They could tell I was there for the plant medicine. When they asked me where I would do it, and I told them Psychonauta Foundation, they all cheered and said you’re going to a great place. It brought me such comfort and they were all right. This is the spot.

My experience at the psychonauta foundation was both enlightening and terrifying. I was welcomed with opened arms by Munda, the staff and volunteers. Everyone was super friendly and super helpful with their knowledge and accommodation.
My first night I was also welcomed by a tarantula in my hut 😅. She was harmless but I am terrified of spiders. So it was a beautiful way to face my fears.
The location is beautiful. The huts are beautiful and so are the people. I made a lot of friends and faced a lot of demons in my ceremonies and came out so much wiser and stronger.
Definitely recommend and would definitely go back
