Tuwe will be sharing two sacred medicines from the Amazon, called Sananga and Rapé. ● Sananga is utilized as a healing eye drop, it is the juice extracted from the roots of an Amazonic plant, "Mata Heins" from the Huni Kuin dialect. From inside of the roots, a juice in decoction is extracted, which is utilized to cure the "Panemas" spiritual diseases. The warrior Indians, before going hunting, will take a drop in each eye, making their perception sharpened, so they can perceive subtle movements in the dense forest Sananga works in the main energetic healing ways: Physical and Spiritual. ● Hape/Rapé (pronounced “ha-peh”), a powerful, cleansing snuff used as part of important medicinal rituals. This medicinal tobacco helps focus and sharpen the mind, also clears a person of distracting, bad energies in preparation for intention setting. It clears sinuses of mucus and bacteria, thereby helping to combat colds and respiratory ailments. It provides a calming, grounding effect on the emotions that last much longer than the initial sensation. After consecrating the medicines we will be seated on a sacred song circle led by Tuwe with traditional Huni Kuin Cantoria that has been passed down for thousands of years! Tuwe loves cultural interchange and invites everyone who feels called to share the medicine of their voice with the circle.
