Folk Remedy Focus: Salt & Smoke Edition
The powerful plant energy that can be used for deep healing and clearing via salt and smoke is one of great intrigue to me. So mysterious yet so practical. A couple of noteworthy goods from small, hand-crafted purveyor of the folk remedy arts...
- Plant Folk Apothecary from New Mexico x Kate Clearlight = Pinon Smoked Bathing Salts
- Product Info per Company:
An ultra-therapeutic bathing experience, inspired by the healing waters of an outdoor wood fired cedar tub. A purifying blend of mineral salts with the addition activated charcoal, black lava salt, locally wildcrafted pinyon, and alder-smoked sea salt. Smells like a woodsy wood fire! A one-of-a-kind sacred bath experience
- Product Info per Company:
- La Abeja Herbs x Sophia Rose = Smoke & Mirrors Cider Tonic
- Method Info per Company:
It stokes the fire in the belly and provides fuel for Revolution taking place -- within and without. Warming, stimulating, and deeply nourishing, Smoke + Mirrors is a simple yet effective folk remedy for maintaining vigor and vitality the year-round. Made with honey, apple cider vinegar, smokey chipotle peppers, and warming, antioxidant rich herbs, its flavor is deep and earthy, complex yet piquant.
A perfect sipping vinegar, Smoke + Mirrors makes a welcome addition to any wellness regimen. For acute bouts when you feel under the weather, we recommend small frequent sips throughout the day. To encourage digestion and elimination take first thing in the morning upon rising with a bit of hot water. Food-like in nature, this kitchen staple can also be added salad dressings, tossed with your favorite steamed veggies, or simply enjoy neat by the teaspoonful.
