Master Plant Diet Summary
Here at PMP, Master Plant Diets are our very favorite experience with nature. They profoundly transform our bodies, minds, emotional landscapes, and overall lives. This practice facilitates a deep connection with plant spirits and has sparked enthusiasm and inspiration worldwide. Shamanic guide Kat Courtney will lead an intimate group of plant-lovers in this month-long exploration of one of the most controversial yet beloved plants in the entire world: Stimulating, nurturing, and clarifying Coffee! The humble coffee bean has a rich spiritual and cultural history dating back centuries.
What is a Master Plant Dieta?
A Master Plant Dieta is a sacred shamanic practice that invites you to connect deeply with the consciousness and spirit of a specific plant, known as a Master Plant. Rooted in the ancient traditions of the Amazon jungle, this practice has been used for centuries by indigenous cultures to foster a profound and healing relationship between humans and plants. Engaging in a Master Plant Dieta involves a process of purification, discipline, and dedication, where you commit to working intimately with a plant spirit to receive its teachings, guidance, and medicine. This journey is not just about physical benefits but also about spiritual growth and self-discovery, as you open yourself to the wisdom and magic of the plant kingdom.
Coffee: The Spirit of Awakening
Originating in Ethiopia, it is believed that the discovery of Coffee's stimulating effects was linked to spiritual practices among monks and tribes, who used it to stay awake during long prayers and meditation. In Yemen, coffee became integral to Sufi religious rituals, helping monks stay alert during prayer and spiritual ceremonies. The beverage spread across the Islamic world, often associated with social and spiritual gatherings, symbolizing awakening, contemplation, and community bonding. Throughout history, coffee has been seen as a catalyst for spiritual awakening, meditation, and social connection in various cultures.
The Coffee Master Plant Diet Experience
In this dieta, we will be working with Coffee arabica, honoring both his physical and spiritual properties. It’s essential that participants carefully choose the source of their beans to maintain the integrity of the plant spirit.
We recommend you source two types of Coffee:
Green Coffee Beans (organic): Unroasted, minimally processed, and aligned with the plant’s natural state — considered gentler and more healing.
Roasted Coffee Beans: Single-origin, certified organic, light-roasted beans ideally purchased fresh and whole, to be ground before consumption.
Upon registration, we’ll share recommended sources and preparation methods for both types.
Coffee Benefits
The beloved coffee bean is a source of comfort and clarity for millions of people, but he can also challenge us when used without mindfulness. Coffee is a master teacher; his medicine calls for balance, moderation, and awareness. In this dieta, we’ll honor him as both healer and teacher, learning how to engage with his spirit with deep respect and intention.
