Bobinsana is an Amazonian heart-opening master plant, a gentle, feminine teacher who works through dreams, emotion and relationship. This page covers three ways to work with her: a guided online dieta, a private 1–1 dieta, and the tincture itself, available to buy directly.
What is a Bobinsana dieta?
A dieta is a focused period of relating with a specific plant spirit through simplicity, devotion and conscious lifestyle choices. Traditionally held in isolation in the jungle, this urban dieta adapts the essence of that work into your current life, with clear guidelines, structure and support.
Bobinsana is known for: heart opening and emotional healing – softening armour, helping to process grief, shame and old heart wounds with compassion; dreams, vision and creativity – amplifying dream life, intuitive insight and creative flow so you can receive guidance for your next chapter; and connection and tenderness – nurturing empathy for yourself and others, and deepening your relationship with nature, spirit and community.
We will not be in an Amazonian tambo – but we will honour the spirit of this plant through clear intention, simple dietary and energetic boundaries, and daily practice, held with trauma-aware care.
Guided Online Group Dieta — 10 Days (next date TBC)
A 10-day Bobinsana dieta for grounded devotion and daily ritual, guided online, from your own home – in this dieta, we walk with Bobinsana not just in the unseen world, but in the everyday: your body, your calendar, your money, your home, your relationships.
Format: online, in your own time zone. What you receive: opening and closing ceremonies (live or recorded) to enter and complete the dieta with clear prayer, boundaries and blessing; daily, heart-led shamanic guidance orienting each day’s theme; a daily practice or journal enquiry focused on body, time, money, home or relationships; a private thread for short daily transmissions, prompts and gentle accountability – you are always sovereign, you choose how much you engage; and on Day 10, an integration plan and vow, so this doesn’t just become “another beautiful experience” that fades when life gets busy.
Bobinsana creates a gentle healing space with the potential to: open and heal the heart; improve sleep and support lucid dreaming; reduce or clear anxiety and emotional heaviness; ease inflammation and body pain; deepen spiritual gifts and intuition; bring clarity, focus, direction and a sense of purpose; and support forgiveness, healthy boundaries and healthier relationships, with yourself and others.
Next group dieta: dates to be announced. Join the mailing list to hear first.
Private 10–30 Day Bobinsana Dieta
For those ready to go deeper, I also offer private Bobinsana dietas, tailored to you and held 1–1.
This is for you if you feel a strong call to Bobinsana and want close, individual guidance; are ready to commit to a period of focused spiritual work and daily practice; or want a container to open spiritual gifts, heal old wounds and step more fully into your power.
Private dietas include: plant medicine tincture, personalised preparation and integration support, 1–1 check-ins and guidance with me, and clear diet and practice guidelines.
Safety, scope & who this is for
This is devotional, emotional and spiritual work with a plant ally, held in a grounded, trauma-aware way. It is not a replacement for therapy, crisis care, or medical treatment.
This dieta is for you if you feel called to Bobinsana’s heart medicine and want to deepen that relationship from home; you’re ready to let your spiritual work shape your daily life, not just your inner world; or you long for gentle structure and a feminine, mythic container rather than a hyper-masculine “optimise your life” approach.
It is not a fit right now if you are in acute crisis (active suicidality, recent major destabilisation), in active addiction, or currently under medical advice to avoid strong emotional/spiritual work. In the Peruvian Amazon, Bobinsana is traditionally believed to have mild contraceptive properties. As a precaution, Bobinsana is not recommended for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to conceive, on certain medications, or with medical conditions, without medical guidance. Keep out of reach of children.
Throughout the journey you will be invited to move at the pace of your nervous system, to titrate your process, and to honour yourself as sacred.

Practical details
- Dietary: keep meals simple and plain – rice, beans, vegetables, plantain or banana. Avoid salt (a small amount is fine if your body needs it), sugar and strong spice, garlic, onion and leek, red meat and pork, fried or processed food, citrus, vinegar, and aged cheese or dairy. Most oils are avoided too, though a little olive or coconut oil is fine. No alcohol for the duration.
- Behavioural: no sexual activity for the 10 days. Minimal social media and screens – work only, where it can’t be avoided. Keep socialising and outings to what’s necessary rather than optional. No other plant medicines or psychedelics during the dieta window, aside from tobacco or Rapéh if that’s already part of your practice.
- Time commitment: realistically 20–40 minutes most days for the daily practice/journaling/check-ins, more on ceremony days or when writing the integration plan — you’ll know your real structure better than any source will.
- After the dieta: traditional practice reintroduces salt, sugar and oil gradually and with intention rather than snapping back to normal eating straight away — worth a line if that matches how you actually guide people out.
Purchase your own Amazonian heart medicine – hand made with traditional methods
Bobinsana is a beloved master plant of the Amazon rainforest – a gentle yet powerful teacher for the heart, emotions and spirit. She supports deep emotional healing, self-love and spiritual connection, while helping you feel more grounded and present in your life.
Bobinsana – Heart Healing Tincture (strong, from paste)
Heart Healing Tincture (strong, from paste) – handmade in the Amazon using traditional curanderismo methods, with Calliandra Angustifolia bark, flowers and leaves – no alcohol, no preservatives, just pure plant and water. Ethically and sustainably wild-harvested in the Peruvian Amazon; 100% natural, organic and preservative-free; cooked to a potent paste using native methods, then made into tincture; very high potency, all parts of the plant used; brown/blue glass bottles to protect and preserve the medicine.
Traditionally, Bobinsana is known as “doctorcita” or “serenita” – a gentle healer, teacher and heart medicine. She may help to: soothe loss, grief and heartbreak; open the heart and increase self-love and compassion; bring calm, emotional space and grounding; support energy cleansing and the release of heavy or stagnant emotions; enhance dreams (including lucid and prophetic), meditation and visualisation; and strengthen intuition, clairvoyance and connection to shamanic practices. Bobinsana is not psychoactive and does not contain ayahuasca or any illegal alkaloids.
As with the guided dieta above, this isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to conceive, on certain medications, or have a medical condition, without medical guidance – full detail is in Safety, above.

Why Dieta With Nancy & Bobinsana?
I lived and apprentices in the Amazon for many years with my curandero partner at the time, holding dietas, carrying the teachings of the plants, the forest and the unseen.
Dieting with me means: you are held by an initiated medicine woman with extensive experience in shamanic and therapeutic work on both sides of the altar; you receive both shamanic and Jungian-informed therapeutic support to ground your experiences; and you walk a traditional path with clear guidance, energetic protection and safe integration.
If you feel called to Bobinsana – whether through the tincture, a future group dieta, or a private journey – you are welcome to reach out and we can explore what is right for you at this time.
