Kanna: A Botanical Ally for Mental and Emotional Resilience
Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is an adaptogenic plant long used in indigenous South African cultures to promote calm, enhance mood, and support emotional clarity. At Kensho, Cody introduces Kanna Feels—a high-potency, ethically sourced tincture—as a tool for emotional support before and after therapeutic sessions.
Listen to Cody share the story, science, and benefits behind Kanna.
The Science Behind Kanna
-
Mesembranine functions as a partial serotonin reuptake inhibitor, promoting mood stability without common side effects seen in pharmaceuticals.
-
Mesembrenone acts as a PDE4 inhibitor, which may help enhance neural signaling and cognitive clarity.
These effects support a sense of calm, emotional regulation, and neuroplasticity—making Kanna a valuable part of Kensho’s integrative care model.
Kanna Feels in Practice
Before treatment: Kanna Feels helps patients center themselves emotionally, reduce anxiety, and prepare mentally for deeper therapeutic work.
After treatment: It aids in serotonin balance, emotional integration, and maintaining clarity and calm in the days that follow.
According to Cody, “Kanna Feels is one of the most effective plant-based allies we’ve integrated into our protocols.”
