It was used in ancient Mayan and Aztec cultures as a restorative herb and love tonic, valued for enhancing vitality and emotional balance. Today, it remains one of the most celebrated herbal allies for supporting mood, libido, and nervous system health, often brewed as tea, blended into tinctures, or used in herbal smoking blends.
