The Dieta
A “dieta” is a journey into the endless realms of the plants to receive healing, purification, deep teachings and energies from these lightful spirits, as well it is a journey to your true inner self.
By going into a dieta with a plant, you are committing yourself to work a close relationship with this spirit.
You will receive the plant medicines oral in form of a tea or juice, made from the wood, the root of specific trees or from the leaves, flowers of specific plants. During the time of the dieata it is very important to keep a special kind of simple but strict diet, in which we avoid salt, fat, sugar, spices, milk products, meat, processed food, alcohol, caffeine, any kind of substances, soap, deodorants and so on. We also have to avoid sexual activities, as well as consumption of experiences for the mind.
To go on a dieta means to focus on your very own inner world and to stay away from outsides distractions. This all is necessary for allowing the planted “seed” to grow inside of you and it creates a fertile soil for an good relationship with the plant spirit. Besides we recommend to maintain a good meditation, yoga or similiar spiritual practise, to keep yourself aligned in your process and in the work of the plants. Therefore you will find your own privat, protected space in small tambos (small wooden huts).
During the retreats we will come together in traditional Shipibo Plant Medicine Ceremonies to enter the realms of the Master Plants and to dive into a deeper level of consciousness, where profound healing and real understanding can happen. The medicine opens us up to wisdom, truth and connects us to the understanding and blessings of life.
Additional you will enjoy daily plant baths and if needed steam baths and purgatives.
Master Plant Dietas are shared since thousand of years to:
- regain physical, emotional and psychological health
- cleanse the physical body and the blood from toxins
- clean the energy field
- strengthen the body, the stamina, the mind and the intuition

Healing Dieta

A healing diet supports the healing process of physical, mental and emotional rooted illnesses and ailments, helps to overcome trauma and anxiety, as well as to treat addictions such as alcohol and drug addiction.
A healing dieta always includes learning and in a learning dieta one always experiences healing.
Nevertheless, you may decide where your main intention lies.
Inkanima will support and guide you in your dieta and your process with open hearts.
Learning Dieta

A Learning Dieta is a deeper dive into the path of plants and healing work with Master Plants, working with the sacred tobacco Mapacho and energy work. You can also concentrate on your creativity and spiritual growth in a learning diet.
In a learning dieta one always experiences healing and a healing dieta always includes learning.
Nevertheless, you may decide where your intention lies.
Inkanima will support and guide you in your dieta and your process with open hearts.
Inkanima & the Team
Inkanima – Sergio Castro Maldonado – is a traditional healer of the Shipibo-Conibo tribe, living near Pucallpa in the Amazon rainforest of Peru. He is 36 years old and comes from a very strong Shipibo lineage, the Inkanima-Lineage. Sergio’s grandfather “Abuelo Inkanima” attained the highest level of mastership called Moraya, awakened master, immortal teacher, with high degree of wisdom and powers and he was also a very powerful healer (Onaya). He was the highest and most respected healer in Paoyhan, a Shipibo community in the Ucayali River. After his death, his grandfather came to Sergio again in a ceremony and transmitted his energy, his power and his medicine name “Inkanima” to Sergio. His grandparents “Abuelo Inkanima” and “Abuela Ronin Wesna” still lead Inkanima and the lineage from the non-physical world. A lineage full of wisdom and unconditional love, like Sergio.
Beside Inkanima, the curanderos Metsa Yaka and Sanken Tsoma will support you in every aspect that is needed with open hearts.
The Venue
We will welcome you at the Plant Medicine Healing Center “Luz del Espiritu del Noya Rao Waki” which is a center built and owned by Inkanima’s uncle Papa Felipe and his son Senen Niwe.
The center is located in the jungle, near the Shipibo community Amaquiria in the district Iparia.
Amaquiria can be reached by a 4 hours speed boat drive from Pucallpa, which is the next biggest city with an airport.
The ceremonies will be held in a wooden maloka – the traditional ceremony place in the Shipibo tradition.
Accommodation is in traditional tambos (small wooden huts for 1 person each) where everyone has their own space. The tambos are equipped with a bed and a mosquito net.
In the Shipibo village of Amarquiria we will also enjoy a traditional community celebration. And we are also planning a jungle walk through the natural pharmacy of the Amzon rainforest.
