Hapé from the Amazon Forest Handmade and fairly sourced from the indigenous villages in Acré, Brazil.


YawanaForca Femenina: The Women's Strength Snuff is elaborated in the traditional Yawanawá, with tsunu ash and handmade rope tobacco. This snuff brings the feminine power of the new generation Yawanawá, as it is made by Nawashahu, a young woman who was introduced very early in the spiritual tradition of its people. Nawashahu is the daughter of Chief Nixiwaká and Putany, the first woman Pajé of the Yawanawá people.

Putany and her sister Hushahu were the first women of the Yawanawá people to be initiated into Rare Muká, which represents the most advanced study of the shamanism of their culture. Together, they broke a taboo within the Yawanawá tradition, for before women women were not allowed to use the sacred medicines of the Uni (ayahuasca) and Rume / Dume (snuff).
It is in this sense that Yawanawá Women's Strength Snuff becomes even more special, since it is a medicine that represents a female conquest of Yawanawá women within their spirituality.

 

Sacramental Uses:

Shamanic Snuff is blown into the nose with tools called Kuripe and Tepi – one for self-application, the other for sharing with someone else.

Found throughout the Amazon. It is used in traditional Amazonian medicine and shamanism as a medicinal herb and as a tool for shamanic journeys.

Snuff is usually administered by a shaman through a bone or wooden straw called Tepi. Small amounts of snuff are blown through the nostrils, one after the other. The effect can be powerful and immediate!

Every medicinal plant is considered by indigenous tribes as a sacrament and as a prayer or intention. We recommend to use this sacred snuff in an environment that is honoring the plant for its teaching and healing abilities. 

Also, it is very essential to aim your mind and prepare an intention before embracing Hape, 

To take Hape start with a dose of a pea size and flat it down on the palm of your hand, always keep concentration. With your applicator insert half in the applicator. Take a deep inhale and blow on your left nostril, exhale through your mouth, then insert the remaining and inhale, blow into your right nostril. Exhale!

Now keep the silence and concentration, and let the force clean you. Blow your nose 3 min after.
