Hape:

Rapé or Hape is the preparation of powdered medicinal herbs, often with a tobacco base. Hapé is typically made with mapacho – Hapé elicits a feeling of alertness and elevation that surpasses most other natural plant-based effects.
The effects of hapé are experienced rapidly and intensely because the powdered snuff is administered through the nose. The practice of consuming powdered plant medicines through the nose is much more ancient than we realized (dating from the pre-Columbian days) and was first observed among the Brazilian indigenous tribes. Attend this session and experience this powerful medicine.

Sananga:

Sananga is commonly made from the roots and bark of Tabernaemontana undulata, a shrub which is found in Brazil and other South American countries. The bark and root is ground into a very fine powder and then extracted into a juice.This sacred and powerful medicine is used to treat and prevent ocular diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, farsightedness, nearsightedness and even blindness.
Sananga is mostly utilized by the tribes found in the Amazon region to sharpen their night vision while hunting, however, sananga does more than that.This powerful eye drop has a healing power that is more spiritual than physical, and has the capacity to increase insight in the minds of those who use it.

Mapacho:

Attend this workshop and learn about how to use Mapacho to heal and to create a deeper connection with our soul. Nicotiana rustica, also known as Mapacho, is the original medicine of South America, where it has been part of shamanic rituals for centuries. It is considered a sacred plant teacher who is able to heal a man on all levels. It is therefore treated with the utmost respect and its use in various ceremonies is highly structured and conscious.
Who should attend this workshop: Facilitators and initiates
