The Medicine

What Is Hapé? (Also Spelled Rapé or Rapeh)

Hapé—pronounced "hah-PEH" and also written as rapé, rapeh, or hape—is a sacred Amazonian tobacco snuff that has been prepared and used ceremonially by indigenous tribes of the Amazon basin for thousands of years. Traditional hapé is made from powdered mapacho (sacred jungle tobacco) blended with the medicinal ashes of specific trees and plants, ground and prayed over by the medicine men and women who prepare it.

Unlike recreational tobacco, hapé is not smoked and not inhaled—it is gently blown into the nostrils using a self-applicator pipe called a kuripe (for personal practice) or a serving pipe called a tepi (when served by another). Received with intention, hapé is used for grounding and centering, clearing the mind and energy field, deepening meditation and prayer, connecting with the spirit of Father Tobacco, and supporting ceremony with other sacred medicines.

But there is a right way and a wrong way to work with sacred tobacco. Used casually or without understanding, hapé can become just another habit—or worse, an energetic burden. Used with knowledge, reverence, and correct technique, it becomes one of the most grounding and heart-opening allies on the medicine path. That is exactly what this online hapé training teaches: how to work with rapé in right relationship—safely, traditionally, and with integrity.

Hapé Training 1 · Your Foundation

Personal Practice & Self-Application

This first training is your foundation. Whether you have never touched a kuripe or have been self-applying rapé for years without formal teaching, Hapé Training 1 gives you what most people working with this medicine never receive: the ancestral context, energetic understanding, and correct technique to build a personal hapé practice that is safe, grounded, and truly devotional.

Most people learn to use hapé from a friend at a ceremony or a random video—and it shows. They take the medicine without prayer, build tolerance instead of relationship, and wonder why the connection fades. This training teaches you how to sit with sacred tobacco the way it has been sat with for generations: as a teacher, a protector, and an ally.

Ancestral & Energetic Foundations of Hapé

  • Where hapé comes from: the tribes, lineages, and living tradition of sacred Amazonian tobacco
  • How traditional rapé is made—mapacho, sacred ashes, and prayer
  • The spirit of Father Tobacco and how the medicine works on the energetic level
  • How hapé relates to the wider medicine path (ceremony, meditation, prayer)

Discernment, Integrity & Right Relationship

  • The difference between relationship and habit—working with hapé without dependency or addiction
  • Energetic hygiene: keeping your field, your tools, and your medicine clear
  • How to source authentic, ethically made hapé—and what to avoid
  • When to work with the medicine, and just as importantly, when not to

Self-Serving Ceremony, Tools & Daily Practice

  • Step-by-step self-application with the kuripe: posture, breath, dosage, and technique
  • How to open, hold, and close your own hapé ceremony
  • Building a daily or weekly personal practice with prayer and intention
  • Working through purging, watering eyes, and the strong moments with grace

By the end of Training 1, you won't just know how to use hapé—you'll know how to be in relationship with it, for life.

Hapé Training 2 · Sacred Service

Serving Others as a Facilitator

Hapé Training 2—serving rapé to others, facilitator training

Hapé Training 2 is where your connection to the medicine expands into sacred service. Serving rapé to another person is not the same as serving yourself—when you pick up the tepi, you take responsibility for someone else's experience, their energy, and their safety. This training teaches you to carry that responsibility the way a true facilitator does.

You'll learn how to serve hapé as a ceremonial and healing medicine: how to prepare yourself and the space, how to read the person in front of you, how to choose dosage and timing, how to hold them through purging and release, and how to protect your own energy while you serve. This is the training for anyone called to bring hapé into their ceremonies, healing practice, or community—and who wants to do it right.

Serving Hapé as a Ceremonial & Healing Medicine

  • Preparing yourself, your medicine, and your space to serve
  • Holding safe, intentional ceremony space for another person
  • Reading the moment: dosage, timing, breath, and presence
  • Supporting the receiver through purging, emotion, and release

Ethics & Energetic Responsibility

  • The responsibilities—seen and unseen—of sitting in the server's seat
  • Consent, screening, and knowing who is (and isn't) ready to receive
  • Protecting your own energy field while serving others
  • Avoiding the traps of ego, spiritual bypassing, and serving before you're ready

Power, Prayer, Tools & Serving Step-by-Step

  • Step-by-step serving technique with the tepi
  • Working with prayer, blessing, and intention as the backbone of service
  • Caring for your tepi, kuripe, and medicine between ceremonies
  • Opening, holding, and closing a serving session with integrity

Complete both trainings and you'll hold the full arc—from your own devoted practice to serving the medicine with skill, humility, and power.
