Ethnobotanicals are plants that have some significant relationship to humans. This can be anything from common medicinal Herbals to Amanita muscaria or other Entheogens.

An entheogen ("God inside us"), in the strict sense, is the use of ethnobotanicals within a psychotherapeutic, religious, shamanic, or spiritual context. Entheogens are used for Shamanic practices including healing, transcendence, and revelation and include meditation, psychonautics, art projects, and psychedelic therapy.

If you came here trying to learn about Kratom, you'll probably be interested in the other Entheogens, of which Kratom is just one of hundreds. Entheogens are plants commonly used in Shamanic practices. As scary as they are to the media and the corrupt government, they have actually been used for thousands of years by humans all over the world. Entheogens are the basis of just about every religion ever seen in the world including Christianity and may very well be at least partially responsible for much of human evolution as well as civilization.

Unfortunately, that part of human history is little known by the mainstream today. In fact that information and the practicing of our ancestors religions is being oppressed today by those in power. From the illegalization and eradication of plants like Salvia divinorum or Amanita muscaria to to the propaganda and arrests against those that do still try to practice our oldest traditions, this knowledge and way of life is being threatened.

Bouncing Bear Botanicals also specializes in Kratom products. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a leaf harvested from a large tree native to Southeast Asia. It is in the same family as the coffee tree.  Although using Kratom has been common throughout its native range of Southeast Asia, this amazing plant has remained virtually unknown outside of that area until the last few years. The leaves of Kratom have been used from time immemorial by peoples of Southeast Asia.

The ethnobotanicals we offer like Amanita muscaria and the traditions and beliefs associated with them should be respected, not feared. It is our mission at Bouncing Bear Botanicals to preserve the most basic way of life and traditions and the plants associated with it through education, keeping the plants and the knowledge of them available to those that seek to find them.
