HERBAL SMOKING MIXES
Although in our day and age smoking is largely considered a vice, this has not always been so. In other times and places smoking has a long and venerable history. To the ancients smoking was not just one of many ways to explore and partake in the essence of herbs, it was a sacred act. Smoke releases the spirit of a plant and thus purifies and centres heart and mind. In <'xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />India, holy men known as Sadhus have long smoked Chillums stuffed with sacred herbal smoking mixes to commune with Shiva, the god of creation. Water pipes fired with dried camel dung are an ancient tradition in many parts of northern Africa. In Native American tradition the holy pipe is the vehicle of the Great Spirit and its ritual was among the most sacred acts of all. No matter of importance was ever brought to conclusion without sharing a pipe in the presence of the gods and no deal was firm lest sealed with sacred smoke. Herbal smoking mixtures also played an important role in plant gathering rituals where they became a token of gratitude, a way to 'give back' to the plant spirits. Without such an exchange the medicine would have been useless.

USE:
Herbal smoking mixtures not only provide an excellent and relatively non-toxic alternative to commercial tobacco. They also open the gate to experimental exploration of herbs, for contemplation, or ritual purposes. Although herbal smoking mixes can be rolled into cigarettes the easiest and most effective method of use is to smoke them in a pipe. Star Child smoking mixes are blends of pure herbs that have not been subjected to any form of processing or curing. They do not contain any additives, flavour enhancers, preservatives or substances that influence the rate at which herbs burn.

CAUTION:
Herbal smokes produce tar. Smoking is not recommended during pregnancy.
