Second, follow the dietary instructions we provide in the recommendations section. This is very important because it will help you prepare your body to enjoy the experience, mitigating potential risks when interacting with ayahuasca.
Prepare for the purge. You may experience nausea, dizziness, and sweating. Although it may be uncomfortable, this is part of the experience; you will release tension and emotional blocks.
Don't forget to wear comfortable, lightweight clothing because the sessions are long, so it's very important that you feel relaxed during the ceremony.
Finally, this is a personal matter; don't compare yourself to others; the ayahuasca experience is unique to each of our participants.
The diet guide is shared before the retreat together with the preparation instructions.
