Traditionally, the indigenous people of the Amazon use the Mambe together with the Ambil (a tobacco-based paste). They take it at various moments of the day. Still, the presence of this medicine is essential during Community meetings when leaders and elders get together to decide how to organise the community, how to heal a specific disease, and how to take care of the territory and nature. “Mambear” from Spanish means the act of assuming Mambe.

​The ceremony of Mambe usually occurs in a specific sacred area around the fire. Firstly Mambe is being shared with all the people that are sitting in the meeting. Then, the elder starts talking about an important topic opening the space for the so-called “Circulo de Palabras” (Words Circle). After that, the seated people listen attentively, and each person can express their own opinion about the topic. This exchange of thoughts can last hours, and the remedy of Mambe is assumed to maintain the attention alive, connect with the heart, and let the feeling express the words.
