Loose Leaf Guayusa Tea Refill
Guayusa Tea Refill — Sacred Energy & Ancestral Clarity
Sourced from the Ecuadorian Amazon, this Guayusa refill is designed to nourish your daily practice while honoring sustainability and reuse. Traditionally shared at dawn by the Kichwa people, Guayusa is a sacred leaf gathered in community, women, elders, and families sipping together, listening to dreams, singing, and sharing stories. A plant of connection, clarity, and presence.
Naturally caffeinated, Guayusa delivers smooth, sustained energy without the crash. Its unique synergy of natural caffeine, theobromine, and L-theanine supports mental focus while calming the nervous system and nourishing the adrenals.
Exceptionally rich in antioxidants, nearly 50% more than green tea, Guayusa contains chlorogenic acids that help reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, and regulate cortisol. By supporting the stress response, Guayusa creates a foundation for balanced hormones, improved mood, and steady energy throughout the day.
Its high antioxidant content also helps reduce excess prostaglandins associated with menstrual cramping. By supporting circulation and lowering inflammation, Guayusa gently eases discomfort and encourages a smoother, more regulated cycle.
Smooth, earthy, and slightly sweet, this refill supports:
• Sustained mental clarity and grounded energy
• Hormonal balance and menstrual cramp relief
• Adrenal nourishment and cortisol regulation
• Blood sugar stability and anti-inflammatory support
• Gentle gut, immune, kidney, and prostate support
• Endurance without overstimulation
For women, Guayusa offers cycle support, hormonal steadiness, and calm focus. For men, it provides clean energy, stamina, and mental clarity. This refill is intended to be poured into your Se Luz canister or storage vessel, continuing a daily practice rooted in ancestral wisdom while reducing waste.
