Kambó is the name of a species of tree frogs from the Amazon jungle and is also the name given to the secretion of this frog that various ethnic groups in Brazil and Peru traditionally use to cleanse themselves, sharpen their senses, strengthen their bodies and to burn what they call panema, which translates as bad luck and is understood as a cloud or density that blocks the body and its functions, clouds the mind, undermines the will power. Panema is related to a lack of energy, lack of motivation, recurrent illness, depression and that circumstances feel stuck, things do not flow.
Their understanding is that by burning the panema the body is restored reaching a state of balance and well-being. Naturally, the body is healed, the immune system is toned, the nervous system is reset, the mind is clarified and the will is strengthened.
