This blend is a go-to for me. Sometimes I make a tea, sometimes I combine with a little bit of tobacco and smoke in a pipe or rolling paper. I call on these plant allies to assist me when I want assistance with a very active mind, when I am really excited about a project and need help structuring myself and focusing or sustaining my attention for longer term projects.
Smoking anything is hard on the mucous membranes of your mouth, throat and lungs. I can not advocate for smoking, of course. However I do believe in and practice harm reduction. I choose to smoke, knowing the risk I put my body and health in. I choose to smoke wild and homegrown plants that I know have not been treated with chemicals/are growing in a toxic environment and have beneficial affects for my emotional and mental bodies while acknowledging and being prepared for the natural consequences on my physical body. I trust you to make conscious decisions about your own health.
As always, whenever using tools to manage and sustain your health, consult with your primary care provider.
