Authentic Indigenous Sacrament
- Handcrafted in Small Batches
- Compostable Packaging
Yawanawá Bobinsana rapé (rapeh), a healing formula, is valued by indigenous communities for promoting calm, happiness, and emotional balance. Made from the powdered bark of Bobinsana (Calliandra angustifolia), a branched shrub known for its powder puff pink flowers that thrive on sunny riverbanks and in wet areas.
In Amazonian traditions, Bobinsana functions as a neuromodulator and adaptogen, traditionally used as a mild stimulant to increase strength and energy while showing potential anti-inflammatory properties, particularly helpful for arthritis and age-related discomfort. The plant is known to enhance dream recall and promote lucid dreaming experiences.
Bobinsana works as a heart opener, fostering empathy, compassion, and deeper spiritual connections. Indigenous wisdom recognizes its strong association with divine feminine energy and its ability to rebalance the energetic body, protecting against negative influences while reinvigorating one's vital force. The plant gently tunes one into the immediate moment, making it particularly effective when experienced in natural settings.
As a master plant teacher in Amazon folk medicine, Bobinsana facilitates emotional healing and spiritual grounding. In some traditions, it is incorporated into ceremonial practices, where it is believed to work symbiotically with other sacred plants to impart traditional knowledge and wisdom.*
♻️ Packaged in 100% compostable, eco-friendly materials.

What is Rapé (Hapé)?
Rapé snuff is a time-honored sacrament cherished by the tribes of the Amazon for centuries. This handcrafted preparation comprises dried, ground medicinal plants and tree ashes. Traditionally, rapé is administered via a unique bone or bamboo Kuripe pipe, blown directly into the nostrils.

It serves as a pivotal component in sacred rituals and ceremonies, facilitating a deeper connection with the spiritual realm, fostering self-awareness, and promoting healing and growth.
