Senna Leaf
Size: 4 oz Bag
(Latin Name: Senna alexandrina / Cassia angustifolia)
(Also known as: The Purge Leaf, Sacred Release, The Laxative of Light)
Brief History & Origin
Senna Leaf is the Herb of Release, Cleansing, and Letting Go, used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine, African healing traditions, and ancient Egyptian cleansing rites. Known as a potent laxative and colon cleanser, Senna has been used when the body holds too much waste—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual.
In rootwork and spiritual baths, Senna is considered a purging herb—called upon when it’s time to move out stagnation, flush toxins, and free the body from heavy burdens. Its medicine teaches that healing sometimes starts with emptying—making room for renewal.
