Amazonian Plants
for Healing

With Tanya Montahuano Ushigua of the Sápara Nation

A Self Paced Course

Be transported to the Ecuadorian Amazon

Join us in this series led by Tanya Montahuano Ushigua of the Sápara Nation in Ecuador. You will learn about medicinal Amazonian plants + remedies for modern illnesses from the greatest pharmacopoeia on the planet, that has been a way of life for many indigenous Amazonian traditions for millennia.

Meet Your Guide Tanya

Tanya Ushigua comes from the Sápara Nation and has learned from her mother about the sacred plants native to the Amazon region of Ecuador.

Tanya and the women of her nation have sought out to rescue and strengthen some of the most important gifts of their culture: artisanal art and medicinal plants.

Her work is fueled by a desire to preserve her Sápara culture and continue sharing the wisdom of plants. She currently is following her mother’s legacy by continuing to build Itia (Sápara word for house), a plant healing center in the Amazon that was initiated by her mother.

Connect to the Wisdom

Connect to the Wisdom ⤐

Tanya’s mother, Carmelina Ushigua, taught her about plants and that they are spirits, not just merely resources. Tanya shares about the relationship with plants not just from the physical benefits, but also understanding how to commune with the spirit of the plants.

Tanya believes that protecting the forest and the spirits is not just for their communities but for the entire world. This is why they educate their children to keep this living wisdom alive, from one generation to the next, to protect the spirits of the jungle.
