🌿 Chiric Sanango – The Cold Plant That Warms the Soul

In the heart of the Amazon, far from the noise of the modern world, there are plants that not only heal but also teach. One of the most respected by shamans in Peru is Chiric Sanango – a plant considered a "master," used for deep physical and spiritual healing.

What is Chiric Sanango?

It is a shrubby plant native to the Amazon, scientifically known as Brunfelsia grandiflora. In Quechua, “chiric” means cold – and not by chance. Those who consume it during a shamanic dieta experience intense chills, sweating, and trembling. But beyond the physical discomfort, true purification begins.

Why is it considered a "master plant"?

Because in the Amazon, not all plants are just medicine – some are teachers. Chiric Sanango is used by shamans for:

• healing deep emotional trauma,

• clearing energetic blockages,

• clarifying thoughts and opening the heart.

It is often part of a process called la dieta, a complete retreat into nature, with strict rules: no salt, no alcohol, no social contact, no sex. Just you, the plant, and nature. Sometimes in complete silence.

What are its effects?

Physically:

• Anti-inflammatory, useful for rheumatism and chronic pain

• Detoxifying and immune-boosting

• Natural aphrodisiac
