Damiana
Damiana is a small green shrub found throughout Mexico and Central America. Since ancient times, the indigenous peoples of this region have used the bittersweet leaves of Damiana as an aphrodisiac and for the smooth sedative effects. Damiana is Mexico's herbal version of Viagra and not only consumed by men. Damiana has been used for centuries by Mexican women. They found that a cup of Damiana tea taken one or two hours before intercourse helped to immerse them in their passion.
Damiana is classified as a nervine tonic and contains seta-bitoserol which has a direct stimulating effect on sexual organs. Damiana is used by people in Oaxaca, Mexico for strengthening the nervous and hormonal systems. Some claim that drunk as a tea it has a relaxing effect. Only the tops and leaves are harvested while the plant is in flower to assure a high alkaloid content.
Damiana has stimulating properties and has been used for nervousness, weakness and exhaustion. Damiana has been recommended for increasing sperm count in the male, and to strengthen the egg in the female. It helps to balance the hormones in women. In Mexico, it is used for female disorders. It is especially beneficial for an exhausted state of the body and of the vital powers of the system. It is useful in increasing sexual prowess in persons who suffer from sexual weakness. It has been used as a mild tonic laxative for children. Damiana has been said to be one of the most popular and safest of all plants claimed to restore the natural sexual capacities and functions.
To Native Americans, herbs represent not only food and medicine but also spirit and magic. Native Americans see plants as living beings. Plants are used with great respect and plants have life and power.
Since the dawn of times plants have been our sacred connection to our mother earth. Plants feed, cure, and shelter us; and legends abound of the power of chosen plants to heal and protect the wise. Native traditions relate that wherever sage and cedar are used, no evil influences may enter.
To “smudge” is to purify with smoke from certain sacred herbs. The sacred ritual of purifying with smoke comes from native peoples in both North and South America. In North America the smoke is created by burning sacred herbs such as sage, cedar, sweet grass and juniper. Smoke may be used to purify the body, spirit, pet, home, office and healing rooms, any space or item in your world
