Plant Attunement & Soft Dieta

Plants as Teachers & Healers

As guardians of Earth's medicine and wisdom, the plants are supportive and loving allies as we heal, learn, and remember who we truly are.

Plants hold keys of remembrance of our true nature and the organic magic that lives within us. Each plant offers unique medicine that restores and awakens dormant aspects of our divine architecture. This can bring healing for body, mind and spirit. The plants can guide us to discover our most fruitful alignment in life.

When we surrender into the medicine and magic of a plant, we are welcomed into the realms of transformation.

Plant attunement and soft dieta are practices for initiates who wish to nurture transformational healing and growth through dedicated practice, inner exploration and shamanic magic. This deep work with the plants often births life-long companionship and invites embodiment of the medicine of the plant. Communion with the plant realm teaches us how to walk in harmony and reciprocity with the living Earth.

The plants become our doctors, teachers, spiritual guides and wise companions.

A Journey of Spiritual Communion

Plant attunement involves becoming intentionally attuned to the frequency of a plant through dedicated practice and shamanic ritual. It is a deep practice of receptivity, self-exploration and living in symbiotic relationship.

It is a spiritual merging, a divine union between person and plant.

The inner journey of attunement may include both shadow and light. Our plant allies hold space for deep healing and shadow work, as well as bring forth incredible gifts of illumination and empowerment. But they do not do the work for us! We must be prepared to meet them with heartfelt openness and the dedication to engage with the full range of internal processes that may arise.

Ceremony & Ritual of Soft Dieta

Soft dieta, as an intentional container for plant attunement, involves certain shamanic rituals to support the merging of plant and person. For soft dieta, we hold an opening ceremony of Sophianic attunement in which you are guided and supported to receive the spirit of the plant within your being. Your communion is rooted in the womb of Gaia-Sophia and shamanically woven with light and sound.

A closing ceremony is an opportunity to honor and close the soft dieta attunement portal by unweaving the merged energies as well as blessing and sealing the gifts and healing you have received. The prayer of attunement is to awaken the medicine of the plant within your own organic energy structure, allowing you to become a living embodiment of this medicine.

Throughout the attunement you will be invited to call upon the support of the elements: Fire, Water, Air and Earth. These elements are the embodied framework for all of life. During the attunement process you will receive guided materials for creating your own Elemental Rituals at home. These rituals can act as powerful tools for moving energies and deepening your process.

Daily Practice & Committment

During attunement, initiates commit to building a close personal relationship with their chosen plant. This means dedicating time and energy to the relationship via focused practice with your plant each day. If building plant relationships is new to you, guidance will be provided for ways to connect with your plant and how to grow your plant spirit communication skills.

Support & Guidance

Personalized mentorship supports you every step of the way, in order to fully embrace the transformational nature of the plant attunement process.

In any authentic shamanic experience there are no guarantees of what you will receive. It is important to be prepared and supported to navigate any shadows or challenges that arise, as well as to integrate the gifts and healing. A mentorship container provides guidance for intention setting, preparation and integration as well as support for any practical, emotional or spiritual processes that arise throughout your journey.

Mentorship sessions are an opportunity to receive shamanic healing support as well as teachings and practices to help you connect with the plants, weave with the unseen realms, and embody your own personal medicine.

A journey with the plants can be a profound spiritual initiation, and you will be supported through this process so that you ma access your greatest potential!

Choosing a Plant Ally

When a particular plant calls to us, we often feel it. We may begin to experience their presence in subtle or obvious ways in our lives. We may feel an affinity or curiosity around a certain plant. You are encouraged to follow your intuition if there is a plant who is whispering to you...

If you are interested in plant attunement but aren't clear on which plant to work with, please reach out! We can help to connect you with a plant ally who is well aligned to your path based on your intentions, prayers and healing needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I eat during plant attunement or dieta?

For attunement you will receive recommendations on how to nourish your body with simple foods that do not create a lot of "noise" or stimulation in the body, so that the wisdom of your plant ally can take center stage. Attunement invites the plant to meet you where you are at, so there are no strict rules for diet; guidance is available but you are in charge of crafting your own relationship container with your own integrity and wisdom.

The nature of soft dieta as a focused shamanic practice tended by a soul midwife (practitioner) means that there are specific dietary agreements that happen between you, the midwife and the plant. You are encouraged to eat a variety of simple and nourishing whole foods during dieta. In order to cultivate a clear and quiet body temple to receive the plant, you will be asked to avoid certain foods and substances such as alcohol, cannabis, sugar, salt, strong spices, pork, red meat, and anything processed or artificial. Certain activities are also part of the diet to be paused. For a full list of diet considerations, please reach out.

It is also important to note that each plant is unique, and may have different diet and lifestyle considerations.

Do I need previous experience?

Not necessarily. While it is helpful if you already have a regular spiritual practice in your life, plant attunement is open to people with all levels of experience as long as you have the willingness and dedication to engage with the process.

However, certain plants are more aligned to advanced study and may require previous attunement/dieta experience.

How will we meet for sessions and ceremonies?

Sessions, including opening and closing ceremonies, may be held online or in-person. In-person sessions are held at a private address in the mountains about 10 minutes from Nederland, Colorado / 30 minutes from Boulder.

Can I come for an in-person attunement retreat instead?

Please reach out if you are interested in attending an in-person plant immersion!
