Kinnikinnick - 25gm


Kinnikinnick is an ancient Algonquin Indian word describing a mix of herbs used for smudging, protection or offerings. Each plant is dried separately then blended together. Traditionally the mixture is used when smoking the sacred pipe (or peace pipe). It is also burned in a shell or bowl. It is made from five different traditional herbs, each bringing a different attribute to the mixture:

Yerba Santa: is widely used by Native Americans and was particularly famed for its ability to ward off negativity and provide an element of protection. The leaves were often carried by individuals to boost their spiritual strength and, in incense form; it's still used today in a healing capacity. As such, it's an ideal incense to choose if you want to bring an air of healing, protection or increase positive vibrations in an environment.

Bearberry leaves: are used during ceremony as they contain antiseptic and astringent properties, which help cleanse and purify the air.
Osha Root: North Americans view osha root as having great power and luck, and as such it's often carried as a lucky talisman. When burnt, it produces a warm and slightly spicy aroma, which is believed to purify the air and also help connect to the higher realms.

Red Willow bark: Willow is regarded by Native Americans as being a relative of the four winds which carries your prayers on the wind and communicates them to the creator. The bark works well in incense and is an important ingredient in sacred smoking ceremonies. It's calming and soothing, making it an ideal herb for use with clearing purposes and during quiet sessions of meditation.

Mullein: is regarded as being a protective herb and is used in many situations where extra protection is required. It's also thought to have masculine energy and associations with fire - some traditions have used it when trying to invoke fire elementals - but it's equally helpful when used by men or women. It is a grounding, calming and healing herb.
