Warm, golden, and gently euphoric, Damiana is an herb of balance, vitality, and sensuality.
Revered for centuries by Indigenous and Caribbean healers, it is traditionally used to lift the mood, calm the nerves, and awaken desire — restoring harmony to both body and spirit.
Damiana nourishes the reproductive system, supports hormone balance, and enhances circulation — making it one of nature’s most beloved aphrodisiac and nervine tonics.
Its subtle, honey-like aroma and smooth, grounding flavor make it as enjoyable to sip as it is restorative to the soul.
As an uplifting and reproductive tonic:
Directions (Internal Use):
Steep 1–2 teaspoons of dried Damiana in 8 oz of hot water for 10–15 minutes.
Drink 1–2 cups daily to uplift mood and promote balance.
Pairs beautifully with Maca Root, Ashwagandha, Cinnamon, or Rose Petals for sensual wellness blends.
