The breath of the forest

From the head, down to the heart

The Huni Kuin describe Capemba as a blend that moves like the wind. Its energy is first linked with the head, then it settles gently towards the earth, and finally leaves a soft note around the heart. Not a fiery blend, nor a heavy one – rather a breeze that clears the air and lets things fall into place.
