April Ayahuasca Dieta
Peruvian Dieta in the Amazonian Jungle led by Don Jose Campos.
Includes on-site psychedelic-assisted integration support: Diana Bourel, ATMA-CENA certified
This is a traditional Amazonian plant dieta, designed for individuals who have prior experience with ayahuasca or comparable work with non-ordinary states of awareness and feel called to deepen their relationship with plant medicine through extended immersion, discipline, and listening.
The dieta takes place in a remote jungle camp approximately 3.5 hours from Pucallpa, Peru, and is limited to 22 participants in order to preserve the integrity, safety, and depth of the experience.
THE SETTING & STRUCTURE
Participants will each reside in their own private, screened hut, or tambo equipped with:
• A hammock
• A bed with mosquito netting
• A desk and chair
• A small dresser or shelves
• 5 Gallon Dispenser of Filtered Drinking Water
The tambos are situated near a clean, swimmable river and within walking distance to the ceremonial lodge.
Although the overall stay is 10 days, the dieta itself consists of 9 days of partial isolation, including:
• A restricted, salt-free diet
• Limited interpersonal contact
• Daily ingestion of one or more master plants, individually selected by the maestros
These plants are administered as a tea and delivered directly to each participant’s tambo.
CEREMONIES & HEALING WORK
There will be five ayahuasca ceremonies, held in a dedicated ceremonial space (Maloca).
Each participant will receive one personal healing session (curación) conducted during one of these ceremonies.
Ceremonies are supported by:
• The maestros
• One designated sitter per night
• A clear emphasis on self-regulation, inner navigation, and personal responsibility
• 2 group integration circles during the Dieta (group eats together)
THERAPEUTIC & INTEGRATION SUPPORT
Diana Bourel will be present on site to provide integration support and psychological orientation throughout the dieta.
Support is offered in a contained and intentional way, including:
• Pre-ceremony preparation
• Availability for private integration support in an ‘office hour’ style access
• Daily morning yoga is offered for those who find support in movement and breath designed to help regulate the nervous system
Participants are expected to have:
• The capacity to self-soothe and self-orient
• Emotional resilience
• Prior experience integrating altered states
• Respect for the process of the Dieta
