Seh-Haw: The Mystical Herb from West Africa


READ HERE

This botanical monograph is an attempt to collect oral traditions, folklore, West African literature, first-hand anecdotes, personal correspondences from herbalists and tea men, as well as academic and scientific references for the West African superfood Combretum micranthum. We present the vast medicinal wonders of this herbal panacea and ‘infusion of long life,’ known most commonly by its French name Kinkeliba, for which the great Sufi master Cheikh Amadou Bamba Mbacke reasserted the West African ancestors’ mystical name Seh-haw. To properly convey the lesser-documented mystical healing properties of Seh-haw, it becomes essential to give the broadest outline of some of the most prominent aspects of the West African Islamic saint Cheikh Amadou Bamba, by highlighting some remarkable facets of his life and teachings in the broader context of Islam and Sufism. We humbly attempt to distill some of the master’s life and teachings into a mere few paragraphs to whet the appetite for true seekers and Muslims, as well as academics who have neglected this spiritual stream to their own and the world’s detriment.

Seh-Haw Herbal Tea
This week I am so excited to be introducing you to an herb, an herbal tea, and a brand new tea company. It’s not often that someone can send a new herb my way, but it happened recently and I am thrilled to share it with you. This amazing new herb comes by way of Saafara, an herbal tea company located here in the United States with roots in Senegal, West Africa. This grass-roots company is just getting started, and I cannot wait to see their products take off in the USA. The herbs and energy of the items they make bring something very unique to our market – and lots of things that I personally think are very much needed in the world today.
