Hape' a meditation tool
Apr 22, 2024
Hapé is a very sacred botanical blend of herbal snuff, made by the indigenous tribes of the Amazon. Hapé, or rapé, is pronounced ‘haa-pay’ in English and is applied using an applicator to blow the snuff up the nostrils in prayer and meditation. This healing snuff is used by traditional peoples to cleanse the mind, purify the thoughts, bring clarity, spiritual alignment, and clear negativity and heaviness from the body, mind, & soul.
The indigenous tribes have been working with this medicine for thousands of years to heal their communities and to connect with the Creator. This plant medicine takes days to make and is a very labor intensive process made in a ceremonial way, out of various Amazonian healing medicinal plants, leaves, trees and seeds from native lands.
Every hape’ blend is different, according to the tribe, the intention and the person receiving it
Application
You may receive hape’ alone with a V shaped self applicator pipe, known as a Kuipe or administered from another person with a blow pipe called a Tepi which connects the blower’s mouth to the other person’s nostrils. It is blown into the nose with the focus of the spirit sent to the third eye chakra with the intention to open each person's insight to their golden path of highest good.
