Since getting my first order of guava leaves from Lyn this year, I’ve been smudging everyday with them. These guava leaves have been a huge part of my healing journey - and now they are a part of my family’s healing journey as well!
I sent my last order of guava leaves to my moms since I was in the middle of moving. When I went to pick them up, she started telling me all these stories about how she used them in the Philippines, how my Lola used to heal their wounds with the leaves, and how my midwife Tita’s used them on new mothers as well. It felt like something lit up inside of her, she was so excited to share these stories with me! There’s something in her that is definitely remembering. And she never would have shared these stories with me if I didn't have the package sent to her house! I really think that was all so beautifully and divinely timed. So thank you Lyn and Mama Guava for bringing intergenerational healing to my family through this medicine <3

The Bayaba leaves are a staple in my practice. Through them I continue to rekindle my connection with my ancestors/guides. The leaves are very helpful to clear dense energies bringing me back to my center by smudging. My heart and soul are elated that I have the privilege of being connected with Lyn and her medicine.

I have these leaves on my altar, ready to sage, and clear my aura, and space. I have started l to use it as a beginning of the week ritual, to set my intentions for the week. I'll also use it when I am called to ground myself and re-center. I feel good knowing that it came from Lyn and it was prepared ritually and sacredly, and I trust her.

Bayaba leaf medicine has been grounding for me as a daily practice. I’m happy that I’m able to support a local medicine person with extraordinary gifts. Being connected with Lyn, her gifts and shop has brought so much enrichment and clarity in my life and continues to. I hold eternal gratitude for Herbalaria. Excited to see all that’s offered.

I really LOVE these guava leaves. They're bagged up with a generous portion in each bag. The guava leaves are prayed over and prepared in a sacred manner prior to shipping. I love the multiple uses of it as well: drinking it as a tea, adding it to your bath water, and most importantly using it as a smudging tool similar to White Sage or Palo Santo. Guava leaves are apart of Philippine medicine and it was important to me to buy a pack that was culturally tied to my lineage.
I was confused when I first started lighting them because the fire would go out faster than it would for White Sage or Palo Santo. I later realized that that was a good thing as it meant my energy field was lighter and I did not require much cleansing. A pack of guava leaves should be apart of everyone's medicinal toolkit and added to your home ancestral altar as an offering. You can even gift a bag for someone else whom you think would benefit from its cleansing properties. I'm thankful to own a set of my own from Herbalaria.com.
