Shawandawa [Ease]

Shawandawa (Ease)

Canela de velho & Wild Mint

Ease is made with the much from ashes of the bark of the  Canela de velho (Miconia albicans) tree. Canela de velho (Miconia albicans), is a shrub species of the Melastomataceae family, which is native to North and South America. Canela de Velho has been a sacred remedy for a wide variety of chronic pains in the knees, spine and joints for centuries.

It is a wonderful sacred plant.

Ease also contains Wild Mint  / Mentha piperita, commonly called mint piperita, piperita, monte yuyo or mint melissa. Mentha piperita is a sterile hybrid obtained from the crossing of the aquatic mint (Mentha aquatica) and the common mint (Mentha spicata). The Mint in this blend is subtle and likely overpowered by the rest of the blend – keen noses can still make it out !
