Overview & Traditional Uses

Senna is a renowned ancient botanical native to North Africa and the Middle East, with historical records of use dating back to 9th-century Arabian physicians. Known in traditional folk herbalism as a dependable, short-term cleansing botanical, Senna contains naturally occurring anthraquinone compounds (sennosides) that stimulate bowel movement and support natural elimination.

• Digestive Cleansing & Occasional Constipation: A classic, reliable botanical traditionally steeped for short-term support to encourage bowel regularity and relieve occasional digestive sluggishness.

• Metaphysical & Folklore Uses: Associated with release, purification, uncrossing, and letting go of stagnant energetic baggage. Used in ritual baths, floor washes, and release workings to break through stubborn blockages and reset physical or emotional boundaries.

• Evening Cleansing Brews: Typically enjoyed in the evening before bed to gently support morning elimination.
