Join us for a workshop exploring sacred smoke practices of the Celtic Isles.
Cultures all over the world have burned plants for sacred rites, seasonal transitions, and healing. The plants used in these fumigatory processes differ across bioregions and cultures. Indigenous peoples on Turtle Island/North America have their own practices, as do cultural lineages of folks who immigrated to the continent.
In this workshop, we will explore some of herbs that folks of the Celtic Isles have burned for these uses. The seasonal shift toward spring was one time that Scottish, Welsh and Irish folks burned herbs with great intention. We will delve into smoke medicine of our ancestral lore and wisdom share about how we might incorporate these lineage practices into our modern ones with care, thoughtfulness and reverence.
This class is meant to support folks in North America/diasporic communities in reconnecting to their cultural backgrounds. All herbalism experience levels and ancestral backgrounds welcome.
Access: Live closed captions provided and the replay will be available for 14 days.
