Huni Kuin
Deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, the Huni Kuin people carry a living lineage of ancestral wisdom, woven through rituals, songs, and sacred crafts.
Primarily based in Acre, Brazil, their culture is a vibrant expression of sacred traditions, plant allies, and forest songs in deep relationship with the forest.
Their creations are not just adornments or tools—they are living prayers. Each line, each chant, each pattern in the beadwork or weavings, is encoded with healing codes and symbolism of a healing plant or animal calling in protection.
Huni Kuin Medicine
For the Huni Kuin, healing is not transactional—it is communal.
Through sacred ceremonies with Nixi Pae (ayahuasca), Rume (Amazonian snuff), and Sananga, the community gathers to remember, realign, and restore balance.
At the heart of these ceremonies are their songs—called Eskawata Kayawai, meaning the transformation of the spirit.These are not performances.
They are transmissions—gifts from the forest, received in vision and offered in service.
Some of the sacred tools used in these ceremonies are now available through our partnership with Huni Kuin artisans. These include hand-carved kuripes—used for the self-application of Rume—as well as beaded jewelry and textiles, each carrying spiritual symbolism, cultural meaning, and energetic protection.
In every product, project, and portal we co-create with the Huni Kuin, we honor these lineages.We don’t sell medicine—we protect it.We don’t appropriate culture—we amplify its voice with consent.
Collaboration & Preservation
This is not a partnership in name only.
It is a relationship rooted in trust, reciprocity, and permission—built through years of shared prayer, work, and vision.
The brothers, known in their language as Txanas traveled from Brasil to Peru to meet with Abi and formalize a vision after working together and building a strong relationship of trust and reciprocity since 2023.
Through this collaboration, we support the preservation of Huni Kuin culture, their economic sovereignty, and the continued sharing of their sacred gifts with the world. We work directly with our tribal partners and together have forged a supply chain that brings the support directly into their hands and makes them partners in the profit. Instead of funding a retreat center, we will invest in the infrastructure of their village where indigenous knowledge can be shared and received directly from the keepers of this
This is reciprocity in action. This is Mama Ayni.
