WHAT IS RAPÉ?
Rapé is a traditional practice from the Amazon that helps quickly shift attention from constant thinking into the body. In this work, rapé is not a ritual and not an altered state. It is a simple body-based tool that reduces inner noise, helps release accumulated tension and returns you to a more collected, stable state. The effect is physical and felt immediately. No belief or interpretation is required.
How rapé works ?
Rapé acts quickly on the nervous system. At the moment of application:
• attention drops into the body
• breathing becomes deeper and more even
• thinking slows down
The effect is felt directly in the body. Nothing needs to be understood or believed.
WHAT RAPÉ HELPS WITH
- emotional and mental heaviness
- stress, anxiety, overthinking
- blocked or stagnant energy
- burnout and disconnection
- nervous system regulation
- reconnecting with intuition
- grounding after intense periods
- preparing for deeper work
RAPÉ CEREMONY IS IDEAL IF YOU:
- feel overwhelmed or emotionally heavy
- struggle to ground yourself
- want clarity for decisions
- need nervous system regulation
- feel disconnected from your intuition
- want a safe, private space to reset
No prior experience needed.
TWO WAYS TO EXPERIENCE THE MEDICINE
WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE MAYA ORISHA ?
I don’t teach techniques and I don’t train methods. I work with people in moments when clarity can no longer be reached through thinking - when the nervous system needs to settle before the next step becomes obvious. My role is to hold a stable, quiet space where attention drops out of noise and into presence. From there, decisions reorganise naturally. People don’t come here for a practice. They come for the state that remains after.
Experience:
• Over 1,000 private one-on-one sessions
• Long-term work with people under pressure and responsibility
• Creator of Sadhu boards used internationally
I only guide where I have direct experience. Tools may appear in the process. They are never the focus. What matters most This work is not built on methods or belief systems. It is built on presence, precision, and trust in the body’s intelligence. Nothing is added. Nothing is imposed. What changes is the quality of attention - and that is what creates lasting shifts.
Why people return? They don’t return for the board. They return because something becomes clear and stable, without effort.
HOW TO BOOK ?

Important note on safety:
Rapé is not suitable for everyone. This work is offered with clear boundaries, attention to physical and mental safety, and respect for individual limits. If there is any doubt about suitability, it is discussed beforehand.
TESTIMONIALS ON RAPÉ CEREMONY
🌿 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will I hallucinate or “trip”?
No. Rapé is not a psychedelic. It does not cause visions. It works through the nervous system, bringing clarity, grounding and presence, not hallucinations.
Will it hurt?
You may feel heat, pressure, tears, emotional release or a short wave of intensity, but it lasts only a few seconds. Most people say: “It was much softer than I expected.”
How should I prepare?
- Avoid heavy food for 24 hours before the ceremony
- Don’t eat 2–3 hours before the session
- No coffee, alcohol or strong stimulants on the day
- Bring water and wear comfortable clothes
- Come with a simple intention (what you want clarity or guidance for)
You don’t need any previous experience.
Can I drive afterwards?
Yes. Rapé does not impair cognition. Most people actually feel clearer, slower and more grounded.
How long does the effect last?
The peak lasts 5–10 minutes. The clarity and grounding can last for hours or even days.
Who should NOT take Rapé? (Important)
Rapé is not recommended if you have:
- unstable high blood pressure
- severe heart conditions
- epilepsy
- active infections or fever
- pregnancy
- recent surgery
- antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs)

If you’re unsure - send a message, we’ll check together.
How many rounds will I receive?
Usually 1–3 rounds, depending on your sensitivity, intention and experience. Everything is optional. You can stop any moment. Your body leads, not the ritual.
What happens if I get emotional?
This is normal and welcome. Rapé often releases stored tension, tears, frustration or old pressure. The space is safe, slow and fully guided - nothing you feel will be too much.
Can I combine it with other practices?
Yes.
Rapé works beautifully with:
- breathwork
- drum or sound healing

In individual sessions - it all flows naturally.
