I did grandmother Ayahuasca for the first time last April of 2023. I followed the diet and didn't purge in anyway and actually had a beautiful experience getting into the deeper healing work. Yes, we should all go into a Ayahuasca ceremony with an open heart, love and respect to the sacred medicine. Thank you for this video. ❤
I’ve actually done ceremonies with giving up cannabis and caffeine and without and it has made absolutely no difference in end result of experience. I don’t drink alcohol so can’t speak on that and I don’t eat pork and many of the contraindicated foods but from personal experience I can say cannabis and a little caffeine made no difference. I’ve given both up for months bf and I’ve also had both a day bf ceremony with NO difference so don’t beat yourself up just remain as disciplined as possible. A lot of people haven’t tried it each way so they just repeat what they have been told. My Frd did ceremony with one tribe that used cannabis so it’s not the end of the world. Bonus if you are a reg smoker it’s a great way to stop. Anytime I’ve done ceremony I don’t have a desire for cannabis. So if looking to cut down or quit it’s a great window to do so.
Thank you so much for your comment! It probably does help a lot that you don't drink alcohol or eat pork - those are two big ones. At the end of the day I think it totally depends on the person (like with anything). I saw some people who were able to have coffee the morning of the ceremony with no issues, and others who are more sensitive and are able to connect better with the medicine when they follow a "stricter" diet. It can definitely be interesting to experiment with it and see what works best for you :)
Wow, I sincerely appreciate this. I have been a regular cannabis smoker for years, at least twenty-four years so far. I stoped about two months ago in preparation of my upcoming ahyauasca ceremonies scheduled in two weeks. It has been much easier to quit than I expected. So, I will continue to reframe until at least after the ceremonies. No worries there. Altering my diet has been surprisingly easy as well. The only dietary concern is caffeine. I only have one cup a day, but I absolutely LOVE and throughly enjoy that one cup every day. I plan to eliminate that one cup two weeks before my ceremony, and I know it will be difficult. I have eliminated pork and beef for almost two months now and no problems there. I do believe, however that it’s more about the sincere effort of sacrifice rather than what’s sacrificed as a demonstration of respect and honor to the plant medicine and the process. I hope that is the case. Anyway, thanks again for your comment. It truly has provided insight. Please respond to any of this if you can. I can tell it will help me in my continued process and preparation. Much love to you! ❤
@@darrylsanders6056 Hi Darryl! Thank you so much for the comment and props to you for taking a break from cannabis after 24 years. That's serious dedication! I totally agree with you - more than anything it's about the effort and respect towards the medicine. If you aren't "perfect" with the diet, that's not a problem. And based on what you said, you're probably following it even better than most lol. I myself sometimes had coffee and never had an issue!
@@daniellerateau Hi Daniell, thank you for the kind and encouraging words! The only concern now is getting my blood pressure under control before I head to Peru. I’m in contact with the retreat Director about that. Just talking to others that have had the experience is so very helpful, so thanks again!! ❤️
@@darrylsanders6056 Have an amazing time!! One of the best parts is all the people you'll meet at the retreat :) It really is life changing in that aspect
thank you for sharing such important info. yess highly agree with all. the cleaner you eat the more sensitive you become to everything. am vegan for almost 2 decades, alcohol never been on my list nor weed. coffee ive recently quit and also am not fond of any processed vegan food such as fake meat and fake cheese. Sugar ive started to cut out for about 2 weeks and i feel so much better. i dont have any planned date for a plant medicine session but in my heart i ve already connected to the plant. soo i got a crazy beautiful dream at the other day with the plant in my dream working with me. It was so clear that ayahuaska came in to start opening up closed down areas in me, ive never had a dream similar to this one even tho am deep into my dreams, it is one of my fav places i like to go to. So yes this plant is powerful for sure❤❤ lots of love and light to you Danielle❤❤
wow thank you so much!! It's incredible to hear about your dream and how you've already connected with the medicine. She really is such a powerful teacher. And yes, I absolutely agree that the cleaner you eat the more sensitive you become. That's probably why you're able to connect so deeply with aya before even having a date for a ceremony. I also recently stopped drinking coffee and feel so much better lol! Sending so much love and light your way as well hun ❤
I did Ayahausca at Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica~ It was the best thing I did in my life....game changer. If you are going to do it, make sure you do it in a safe container with shamans that know what they are doing. Rythmia is a safe container. #Rythmia.
Great video, Danielle. You seem like such a kind and nurturing soul, just spreading your light to help guide others towards their own. I was waiting for you to bring light to the fact that the dieta isn't just about removing toxins, and approaching the ceremony with a more purified physical body. But on a deeper level, it is about proving to the spirit of Ayahuasca, that one is willing to surrender the foods they love, for ones that she prefers. I am so happy you brought this up, because so many others do not discuss this, and I think it is an important factor to bring the the stage and share so that people can begin respecting her prior to her entering ones consciousness. I find so many people struggle with that, but if they knew it was based around respect, it may instill more discipline to continue the dieta with less struggle. The dieta is hard, but phew, the withholding the sexual urges, that's the biggest struggle for many, and myself. Anyhow, this is becoming a novel. Keep spreading your love and light. This channel is destined to grow. Thank you for all of your videos thus far!
Oh my goodness what an amazing and uplifting comment. Thank you so much Jadon ❤What you said it so true. Oftentimes people just think of the diet as being about a physical detox, when it goes so much deeper than that. It really is about showing respect to the medicine and proving to her that we are dedicated to playing a part in our own healing. And yes lol it was always interesting to hear about people's struggles with sexual energy during this time 😆 That and coffee were the big ones lol. Anyway, I so appreciate your genuine message and thank you for being part of this growing community. Let me know if you'd like to see any videos in particular!!
@@daniellerateau You are so kindly welcome, Danielle! Well deserved compliments and praise. I’m fortunate enough to not be a coffee drinker, so I lucked out on not having to endure, what I imagine, a rough small mental detox for some. I’ve seen people outwardly rage because their coffee wasn’t made as soon as they got up. It was intense. Sex and coffee. The two bugaboos. I’m attending ceremonies tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday, so perhaps some insights will come through regarding topics you can expand on. I’ll let you know! Do you also share these types of things on Instagram by chance? Have a great day, Danielle!
Thank you SO much for sharing this video and adding in the links and diet description is so helpful. I love the way you presented ayahuasca with authority on the strong plant medicine it is. This vernacular will be helpful when people are skeptical when asking why I’m going. Thank you!
Hi Mariah! You're so welcome and I'm happy you found it to be helpful. Super excited to hear that you're going to have your own experience with Aya and I'm sending you so much love on your journey!
Great vid! Q: I put spices on all my meat, chicken, etc basically lmao. Then i can only put salt and pepper on my meat b4 a ceramony??? 😵💫 Very exciting.. 🙃
Thanks for all of your valuable insights!! I am vegan so most should be easy, although I do get some of my protein from beans and tofu... should I cut that out the week prior? Also, I haven't checked but do you have any thoughts or videos on the number of ceremonies is enough or too much? ie. 3 ceremonies over 7 days?
Hi there! Honestly, some beans and tofu the week before should be ok. Just eat as clean as possible, and if you're already vegan you'll be great! I don't have a video on the number of ceremonies but within a week period, 3-4 is pretty normal and a good amount, in my opinion. The nice thing is, if you feel like you need a break you can always sit in ceremony but not drink the medicine, or just have a really small amount to connect ❤️
Thank you! This was all super helpful!! What if I work with healing herbs in alcohol tincture form? Do they have to be cut out completely? It’s in such a small amount.
Hi Amelia! I'm so happy you found it helpful ❤️ You should be totally ok with the small amount that's in a tincture. I used some myself and never had any issues
Hi there! You're so welcome, and great question. I would do your best to avoid refined/processed bread (like your typical white bread), but a good quality multigrain or whole-grain bread (for example Ezekiel bread) would be ok. And yes white rice should be fine! Brown rice and quinoa are also great options. ❤
Thank you for your video. You said to avoid Tyramine, but nuts (especially walnuts and pecans) and seeds contain tyramine? Eggs and Fish seem to be OK to eat, but based on previous information I found online it is suggested to avoid any animal products? Could you kindly share your 2cents on this? Thanks again :)
The tyramine thing is super interesting...this is one that I've seen vary a lot among different retreat centers and traditions. Some centers avoid all animal products and any foods with tyramine, while I've seen others that serve fish & chicken, bananas, avocado, nuts and seeds, etc. Personally, I ate plenty of nuts, seeds, and fish and never had any issues (and neither did any of the guests). Best to avoid the aged cheese, processed meat, fermented veggies, and of course alcohol :)
Hi Frances! You're so welcome ❤️ You should be fine having a little cacao! Try not to add too much sugar if possible and it would be best to stop a day or two before the ceremony :)
What about alkaseltzer. I have a ceremony in a few days and i was feeling nauseous so i had two sips of alkaseltzer and water before stopping bc i wasnt sure if it was bad.
@daniellerateau I didn't realize the symptoms could be associated with the preparation of aya. I have been feeling headaches a month before the ceremony, so I think it could all be spiritually connected. Thanks!
Hi Mark! For dieta purposes, it's good to go as clean as possible. And for commitment to working with ayahuasca I would recommend a brief pause in microdosing before your ceremonies 💛😊 Thank you so much for reaching out!
Definitely depends on the setting! The Shipibo shamans actually consider the tobacco plant to be another type of plant medicine and they use Mapacho (sacred tobacco) in ceremonies. It can be a protective spirit in that kind of setting. I just think it's important that it's not abused/used too much, as I've seen people basically get addicted and use it like a cigarette.
Another amazing video and I completely agree on every point! The most incredible thing I found is that you TRULY FEEL how important all above is during the actual ceremony, as in you're able to remember what you've eliminated and how the purity of your body is allowing you to flow into magical places so easily and so clearly. You cannot put it into words, so mystical 🤗💚💚💚💗
It's so beautiful! I've seen so many people come into ceremony, some having practiced the diet and some not at all 🤣 but I've definitely witnessed what a difference it makes. My favorite is when people actually stick with caring for and nourishing their bodies afterwards ☺️
Hi dear, lovely channel :). Listening to my body, I felt like fasting before my ceremony, which is in a couple of days. So will be 3 or 4 days fast. I suppose it would be good to eat something at least the day before, what are your thoughts?
Hi love! Hope I caught this comment in time ❤️ I would eat at least something to nourish your body since ayahuasca can be quite exhausting energetically and physically. Wishing you the most amazing journey!
Hi there! Fermented foods contain tyramine. Since ayahuasca is an MAO-inhibitor, it temporarily inhibits the activation of the monoamine oxidase (MAO). This is an essential enyzme to breakdown tyramine, so without it you may end up with headaches and hypertension. That's why it's best to avoid :)
Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that the video didn't meet your expectations. I appreciate you taking the time to watch it and share your thoughts.

Really struggling with caffeine. What do you think would happen if I have small amount before ceremony?
Trust me I completely understand 😆 Just do your best to cut back, but if you have a small amount you'll be ok.
Excellent video great info
thank you so much!! 😊
Great vid!
Q:
I put spices on all my meat, chicken, etc basically lmao.
Then i can only put salt and pepper on my meat b4 a ceramony??? 😵💫

What about cbd oil is this classed as cannibis???

Does nutritional yeast count as a yeast to avoid? (My understanding of nutritional yeast is not actually a yeast so I want to make sure.)
Ohh great question. Nutritional yeast tends to be high in tyramine so you will actually want to avoid that a few days before your ceremonies 🙏
Hello! What about the oral contraceptive (Zoely birth control pill: estradiol and nomegestrol)?
Can I continue to take it ?
Hi love! You should actually be fine to continue with your birth control during the ceremony ☺

Stop Psylicybin microdosing before ayahuasca? Thank you Danielle for all your guidance!

Im a week from my first ceremony and am only gonna start my diet tomorrow. How bad of a time am i gonna have?
You'll be fine!! Don't stress too much. Even just a week of cleaning the system helps a lot ❤️
Hey Danielle, I take quite regularly Magnesium, Zinc and Tumeric supplements, should I pause this as well? And if so how long for? Thank you
Hi Michal! With those supplements, you really should be fine. I would just recommend not taking them the actual nights of your ceremony :)
@@daniellerateau Hi Danielle, I thought that would be the case, thank you 🍀

I definitely will! 😊 thank you! ⭐
What’s if I’m carnivore?
Hi Robert! I would recommend at least cutting out red meat and sticking with chicken and fish in the time leading up to and after your ceremonies ❤️
Why fermented foods? Things like SAUERKRAUT and kimchi?
Hi there! Fermented foods contain tyramine. Since ayahuasca is an MAO-inhibitor, it temporarily inhibits the activation of the monoamine oxidase (MAO). This is an essential enyzme to breakdown tyramine, so without it you may end up with headaches and hypertension. That's why it's best to avoid :)
Can you share which center you went through this journey?
Hi Massie! I was at Arkana in the Sacred Valley of Peru
Can you have chicken/turkey one week out from your ceremony. My friend invited me and its next week. Am trying to get as organized as possible.
You should be ok with chicken! Try to get organic if possible but otherwise you'll be fine ☺️ have an amazing ceremony!!
Thank you 🙏
Do spicy foods include the spices in chai?
Hi there! You should be fine with the spices in chai. Maybe just avoid the day of the ceremony :)
@@daniellerateau thank you for your quick response! Your videos are excellent.🙏🏼🌺
@@delphina1111 Aw thank you so much! ❤❤
