Sananga Caboclo – 10ml

What is Sananga Made Of?

Sananga is sourced from the roots and bark of Tabernaemontana undulata, a shrub native to the Amazon rainforest. Using traditional preparation methods, it is then ground, filtered, and ceremonially blessed for ritual use. 

Traditional Uses and Cultural Significance

Sananga medicine has a wide range of traditional uses in the Amazon rainforest, particularly among the Yawanawá tribe. The Yawanawá see sananga as a powerful medicine for relieving extremely painful headaches, as well as for addressing eye problems such as cataracts, glaucoma, and astigmatism, and sharpening one’s vision when hunting at night. 

In medicinal ceremonies, sananga eye drops are said to quiet the mind and enhance focus. This plant medicine is revered for its powerful detoxifying properties, which are thought to cleanse the spirit of negative energy and prevent what is known as panema, the spiritual accumulation of negative energy in the body that, left untreated, can potentially lead to physical ailments. 

Sananga in Ceremony and Spiritual Healing

Beyond the physical and mental aspects, sananga is also believed to be a profound spiritual medicine. Sananga medicine is used in rituals for purification and energetic balance, usually with the purpose of improving focus and supporting emotional release and intuitive connection.
