Description
Força Feminina is crafted exclusively by the spiritual warrior women of the tribe, blending traditional Tsunu ashes with sacred forest plants revered by the Yawanawá for their feminine power. Infused with courage and resilience, this exceptional medicine cleanses, restores peace, and strengthens the spirit.
A strong Rappé that invokes the healing power of the feminine — emotionality, gentleness, flow, intuition, perseverance, creation, and receiving. It opens the heart to feeling — to being in feeling. Do not assume it is a ‘soft’ medicine because of its gentleness — this Rappé carries real strength.
Força Feminina contains the energy of courage and is the inspiration of a woman who had to go through many tests for her power to be recognised — unleashing the feminine force of nature. Do not assume the feminine to be weak; rather, understand its form in all things. Whether the masculine seeks to connect to the inner feminine, or the feminine needs support — one will find a deep arousal within when invoking the feminine spirit of the jungle found in this blend.
Força Feminina is a Rappé prepared by one of the daughters of the chiefs of the Yawanawá. Before this new time of reconnecting to their cultural roots and medicine, their spiritual work was exclusively for males. Chief Birací’s wife, Putani Yawanawá, is the first woman — together with her sisters — to engage in recognised spiritual work. She and her sisters, for the first time, undertook their trials of initiation. Their daughter Nawashahu carries on the work of her parents, receiving and singing her medicine songs and making this beautiful Rappé.
Suggested Use
Use in a quiet, grounded setting with respect for the tradition. Begin with a very small amount, especially if you are new or sensitive to tobacco. Sit upright, set an intention, and use a kuripe for self-application or receive from an experienced server using a tepi. Apply gently and remain seated for a few minutes while the body settles. Contains tobacco and nicotine unless clearly marked tobacco-free. Avoid during pregnancy, with heart or blood pressure concerns, nicotine sensitivity, or when using alcohol or other intoxicants.
