Tobacco Dieta
Dietas
We commit to experiencing a diet (dieta) when we are ready to deepen our relationship with the plant allies or Master Teachers of the plant world. Different plants have different healing properties and can teach us different things. Every plant can heal specific conditions and also has the ability to teach us about its own unique light. Ultimately all plants are pointing us towards the same truth, that which we are. These plants are teaching us about nature, natural law, ourselves, and our place in this world, and opening us to worlds beyond. Beyond all, they are teaching us to be in harmony, to be at peace, and to live in accordance with Truth, and with Knowledge, and not book knowledge, but experiential knowledge.
The dieta experience is when we go into isolation for a certain amount of time. We allow ourselves to go inwards with the plant ally without any distractions so that we can clear the chaos within and receive the clarity we are seeking.
Tobacco
Tobacco, or mapacho as it is called in the Amazon, is a sacred medicine of people all throughout the Americas, where it is indigenous to. It is often said that tobacco is the grandfather plant, from which all other plants sprung forth. In the Amazon, tobacco has an almost universe appeal as medicine, spanning most indigenous groups.
During one week you will deepen your connection with yourself, clear your body and mind and step into a relationship with Grandfather Tobacco
The Tobacco Dieta is held by Timmie Larode and Rebecca Llewellyn. It is a great opportunity to work with a balanced energy and presence to your experience and ceremony. Timmie is your Tabaquera and Rebecca will be of service supporting you through all your additional needs during the dieta.

Your Tabaquera
Timmie Kimba Larode
Timmie Larode is a multi-dimensional healer, Tobaquera, and Medicine Woman born in Trinidad and Tobago.
As a young child, she witnessed her mom taking care of the sick people in the village, with her prayers, touch, and spiritual baths. She knew one day she wanted to serve as her mom did. However, coming to America as a teenager shifted that prayer for her until a deep call to serve occurred in 2017. In 2017 she began her part of walking the red road. Offering Shamanic meditation to her friends and the community. She later deepened her healing tools by becoming a shamanic reiki practitioner.
Much of her work is deeply rooted around healing the inner child and healing trauma within the collective, especially for her black and brown relatives. Her work comes with an infusion of Caribbean and African spirituality.
Timmie also serves as a birth doula, spiritual mentor, shamanic practitioner, Reiki practitioner, and intuitive guide.
Timmie is based in Brooklyn, New York, and Peru.
