Our unsmoked, pure leaf, certified organic and fair trade yerba mate tea contains nearly twice the antioxidant power of green tea. It comes from a small organic family farm in northeastern Argentina, where it is dried with a unique smoke-free drying process to achieve a smooth, clean flavor. Extra time is taken to remove stems and powder, so the loose yerba mate leaves are the most nutritious, energizing product possible. Whether you are using a coffee-maker, a French press, a tea ball, or a traditional mate gourd and bombilla straw, you'll love our high quality, fair trade, organic yerba mate!

Produced in a nut-free environment.

Lavender essential oil is a natural relaxant and is used universally for its calming effects. Known as an antidepressant and is used to calm a stressed spirit, anxiety, and hysteria.

Ancient and indigenous peoples have insisted their knowledge of plant medicines came from the plants themselves, perceived through a heart-centered mode of perception, not trial-and-error experimentation. Author Stephen Buhner explores this heart-centered mode of perception, helping readers to learn about the medicinal uses of plants, and how to gather information directly from the heart of Nature.

Mushroom Wisdom explores the universal aspects of the psilocybin mushroom experience as it relates to spirituality.

Author Martin Ball explains how mushroom use can lead the spiritual seeker to profound states of self-awareness and radical understanding of the nature of the self, reality, and the sacred. Topics include looking into the spiritual mirror to uncover an authentic sense of self, developing witness consciousness to overcome self-limiting concepts and judgments, and removing obstacles of ego and self-induced suffering to trigger the rich experience of spirit flow.

The book also addresses the creation and use of ritual, sacred objects, and the importance of sound and silence. Ball distinguishes between using mushrooms in spiritual work as opposed to simply having a pleasant psychedelic experience. Not a guide to how to have fun with psilocybin mushrooms, Mushroom Wisdom is a serious investigation into deep spiritual nature, drawing on both a wide array of scientific disciplines and ancient shamanic practices.

We are now offering oil from the fruit of the palo santo tree. Instead of oil being made from the wood it is taken from the fruit, resulting in an even more sustainable way to experience the benefits from palo santo. The sacred palo santo tree stays alive during the harvesting of the fruit. This oil is quite similar in scent to oil from the wood, but it is a bit more rich and deep. Great for perfume making or oil blends, and we highly recommend Palo Santo -The Fruit for your diffuser.

In the Upper Amazon, mestizos are the Spanish-speaking descendants of Hispanic colonizers and the indigenous peoples of the jungle. Some mestizos have migrated to Amazon towns and cities, such as Iquitos and Pucallpa; most remain in small villages, their houses perched on stilts on the shores of the rivers that are their primary means of travel. Here in the jungle, they have retained features of the Hispanic tradition, including a folk Catholicism and traditional Hispanic medicine. And they have incorporated much of the religious tradition of the Amazon, especially its healing, sorcery, shamanism, and the use of potent plant hallucinogens, including ayahuasca. The result is a uniquely eclectic shamanist culture that continues not only to fascinate outsiders with its brilliant visionary art but also to attract thousands of seekers each year with the promise of visionary experiences of their own. Ayahuasca shamanism is now part of global culture. The visionary ayahuasca paintings of Pablo César Amaringo are available to a world market in a sumptuous coffee-table book; international ayahuasca tourists exert a profound economic and cultural pull on previously isolated local practitioners; ayahuasca shamanism, once the terrain of anthropologists, is the subject of novels and spiritual memoirs. Ayahuasca shamans perform their healing rituals in Ontario and Wisconsin.

Singing to the Plants sets forth, in accessible form, just what this shamanism is about -- what happens at an ayahuasca healing ceremony, how the apprentice shaman forms a spiritual relationship with the healing plant spirits, how sorcerers inflict the harm that the shaman heals, and the ways that plants are used in healing, love magic, and sorcery. The work emphasizes both the uniqueness of this highly eclectic and absorptive shamanism -- plant spirits dressed in surgical scrubs, extraterrestrial doctors speaking computer language -- and its deep roots in shamanist beliefs and practices, both healing and sorcery, common to the Upper Amazon. The work seeks to understand this form of shamanism, its relationship to other shamanisms, and its survival in the new global economy, through anthropology, ethnobotany, cognitive psychology, legal history, and personal memoir.

From our long-time Peruvian partners, Moena alcanforada Essential Oil is only now being shared with the international marketplace. Exclusively crafted by its maker in the Amazonian region of Peru, this oil is steam distilled from sustainably grown and harvested tree branches, leaves, and limbs, from trees that were planted especially for the purpose of developing a tree crop too valuable to cut down and thereby changing the course of rampant deforestation which is occurring in some parts of the rainforest.

A cousin of Brazilian Rosewood, Moena alcanforada essential oil is known for its soothing properties. This oil helps to support inflammation of the body, such as muscles and joints; and of the mind, such as anger and irritation. A camphor-like fragrance; use in a diffuser to create a relaxing atmosphere. Some of the proceeds go to preserving the grower's mission.
