Rapé Shawadawa: The Flight of the Shaman and the Clarity of the Jungle

🍀Rapé Shawadawa: The Flight of the Shaman and the Clarity of the Jungle 🍀

Shawadawa rapé (also spelled Shavada or Shãwãdawa) is a sacred ancestral medicine made by the tribe of the same name, who live in the state of Acre, in the Brazilian Amazon. Like many other ethnic groups in the region, the Shawadawa suffered the consequences of the rubber boom, but they have worked to revive and preserve their traditions, including the preparation of their rapé.
Rapé is a central part of their culture, used for healing, purification, connecting with spirits, and gaining energy and focus for daily activities. The name the Shawadawa give to their rapé is Rupusuty, a word that encapsulates the essence of this sacred medicine.
