I grew up seeing my dad's cousin perform a smoke ritual at the graveside service for several relatives. I never knew what exactly this was, but it always interested me. Later I learned that my dad's cousin embraced our Cherokee heritage that most of us never knew we had. I was able to assist him with the last one he did at my uncle's funeral. I wish I could have been more exposed to the teachings, but dad's cousin is gone now. I believe in what it represents and am trying to learn how to smudge and carry these traditions on.

Tobacco is a beautiful plant with a rich history. I grew up helping cultivate it. It's an amazing plant. People think it's an awful deadly plant that will always lead to an early death. That couldn't be farther from the truth. If consumed in as close to it's natural form as possible it isn't any more unhealthy than the gallons of coffee, alcohol or the highly processed foods that we consume. I grow my own tobacco every year and enjoy every step of the process of growing, harvesting and curing. Its slightly akin to the wine making process and extremely fascinating. Tobacco should never be advertised to children or consumed without knowledge of it's potential health risks but used responsibly and in moderation, it's really an amazing plant.
I really appreciate your share. I have much healing left to do when it comes to tobacco. Though I understand with my heart this plant is sacred... my mind still holds anger and sadness when I think of this plant... both my mom and dad developed health issues and I lost them both. I know I still have much work to do. However as I read and hear shares that present Tobacco in a more beautiful light... it does help. I have been considering trying to grow some... the idea has come up a few times now... perhaps that would help. Thank you - mig8etc.
Also intentions with tobacco/nicotine goes a long way. It's really medicinal and therapeutic when moving with that approach. It's a painkiller/reliever - helps with digestion , soothing the stomach for a good bowel movement. It also helps grounds and balances heightened emotions. It's pretty much therapeutically introspectively meditative when used with that intention or just approach. Well this is how i go about utilizing it and have for years
Mig8etc Mallory for this nice and thorough overview. I love the images you use as you explain (which help clarify a bit more on how you use the sacred plants). Wishing you a gentle day.
The way I have come to use tobacco as sacred medicine is through hapé. It's a natural tobacco snuff used by indigenous tribes of South America. I use it daily as medicine and to ground and connect with spirit.
Thank you for sharing this is one of few videos that actually show respect to the plant and cover most of the traditional uses, we recently done a Tabacco Dieta and had amazing experience. it was such a beautiful and healing journey.
I loved the video! As an avid fisherman & hunter, I will always carry some tobacco with me as a way to say thank you for the food that has been provided.
Tobacco is a very sacred herb for me and I use it when collecting herbs in the wild or in the garden. I am lucky inhaving Hopi tobacco growing in my garden.
I don't know about medicinal tobacco but Indian tobacco is the best tasting tobacco. No chemicals, preservatives or flavorings. Just good tobacco from the good Earth.
Yes. Spouse of 41 years nearly died of an auto immune disorder. Western medicine had no answer- even though they are well aware that smoking, and inhaling tobacco is a cure. After two months and 16 units of blood - my spouse resumed smoking tobacco (after five years abstinent). He has been well ever since. The medical community will not speak of this, but it is true.
Interesting. Only 5% of tobacco users were hospitalized for covid. Tobacco also is effective for venom- at least getting it out of your nicotine receptors. A study in Italy showed all covid patients to be positive for 200 different venoms. Our governement has been testing use of venom on us since the 70s. You can buy venom off the internet and it's produced in most large countries. A 7mg patch may also be effective to protect against venom shedding and venom from any shots.
I suspect I may have found another use for it. Suppose someone has been in a moldy building breathing in spores, living there for some time and now is still very incapacitated with many related symptoms many months after, trying many treatments and still... It makes sense that the inhaled natural tobacco smoke might kill the spores in the respiratory airways and be part of a purification. Since the illness came on through breathing in spores and mycotoxins, could the cure be in breathing in something that kills the life out of those spores?

Even if this tobacco is not as clean as claimed (I hope it is), it waaaaaayyyyyy cleaner than any tobacco I've ever smoked before. The taste and the medicinal benefits are amazing! One thing I'm learning is to onhake through the nose instead of taking it dueectly into tge lungs. That prevents the huge head rush thst I hate. We have been so lied to about tge benefits of tobacco, when it's really the poisons that are added to most commercial brands, esoecially the ones in cigarette form. God provided everything we need on this earth gor our benefit, ehen used properly. My pain is liwer and my mind is more focused. I love taking a few moments here and there tgroughout the day and enjoying a cigarette and thanking Hod for all of tge good things He has done for me. Ir's so sad thst this beautiful type of plant has been so demonised by governments and society
I’ve never used it in a ritual or in a sacred way as I’m not an Indigenous person but I had friends who were when I was young and they taught me that tobacco and saliva can be used to get rid of the toxins of bug stings, and I’ve used that my whole life.

I'm a tobacco pipe smoker, and I really think tobacco is the king of the grounding herbs. I can absolutely see how it would be regarded as a connection ritual to the creator and the earth. Can confirm. I don't think it's meant to he inhaled into the lungs, it's too powerful. But it is meant to be smoked mindfully.

Therefor My question is What kind of tobacco is used. If I'm venturing into the wilderness and wish to present a tobacco offering out of respect and a prayer to my God, along with the covenant understanding that I'm not there to harm - what is used? How much? Does it matter? I assume I don't set down a pack of Marlboro's or a pinch of Red Man. I garden so I reckon I could grow my own but I still lack knowledge on kinds, types, so on. TY
You mention non-smoke offerings are dried tobacco leaves in an unaltered state. Does that mean that there's a specific type of tobacco that needs to be used, or can someone just go to the local smoke shop and buy a pouch of pipe tobacco from any given brands and use that? My father used to smoke Captain Black so I really love that smell.
The diversity in native tribes is beautiful different but yet all the same in one way or another. I put tobacco in the ground after a good hunt or taking something in the forest in exchange for that item or food. I'm cree, that's how I was thought to use tobacco.
I am trying to learn more about the sacred medicines and I found some information about the inner bark of the red willow being called tobacco and used in the same way. I also see several different kinds of heirloom tobacco that can be grown from seed, such as Hopi tobacco. Which type of tobacco do the indigenous people use in your area?

You can use in your smudge and you can use it to pray with by placing some in your left hand, saying a prayer and offering it to the earth or water. You can use it to offer to elders if you have specific questions.
@@MalloryRoseCo ah I see, for some reason I did not choose to incarnate here with access to relatives who are in touch with thier culture. Im am tracing and learning about my culture from scratch.
Does sacred tobacco, Nicotiana Rustica, have a guardian spirit? Like a spirit that watches or protects it? Or is the Creator the only spirit connected to it. Thanks you.
It's just that this is my first time using sacred tobacco. I feel such a strong presence around it. Lol, it's kind of unnerving and I want to understand completely what that presence is.
Very good question Paul! Many tribes have the medicine wheel teachings and the sacred medicine teachings, but I am not sure what exact tribes! You might have to research each tribe and see what you can find :)
@@MalloryRoseCo tru story. I come from an old Indian civilization located in southern Louisiana. I know that's what we still use it for. Hurricane Katrina kinda scattered us but the few among myself stayed through all the turmoil. True Story.
We mainly used it for our cattle and horses as a drawing sap. At one time Tobaccos was used for just about any ailment though. We used it for anny and everything back in the day. But, mainly it was uses for a drawing sap. Especially with our wildlife to help the cows and the horses that got bit by insects or snakes. Sometimes it worked other times it didn't.
If the wildlife got bit by a snake or a insect or any kind of injury we would wet the tobacco and put it on the wounds. Or if a kid got stung by a bee or a wasp. We would wet the tobacco in order to get the juices flowing and put it on the sting
The cigarette J... have forever destroyed the image of tobacco with their toxic cardboard. Hand rolled and pipe tobacco have zero effect on healths when used in moderation.
usually when you just know the species of the plant you know nothing about if it has different kinds, when to harvest, which part of the plant to use, how to prepare, with what to mix, how to consume etc. (a sheer endless list) --- one thing done wrong and the effects could be far less or be nothing at all
Smoking tobacco should be outlawed. I am a smoker myself. Some indigenous tribes that have been isolated for centuries know nothing of tobacco. The use of smoke in religious or spiritual ceremonies is acceptable.
So tobacco in traditional use is more of a currency than a mind altering substance. What do you know about chewing tobacco? Would you say “chew” came about after the Spanish came to the Americas? And maybe after the Russians came to Alaska?
How does a young woman like her know all these things, and has the authority to tell people what elders should be telling. This to me is not right that is why we are losing what we were given years ago. No one has any respect of any sort nowadays. We need to use our elders.
This young person is helping me understand better, learn... so that I may be more respectful, be a better person as I replace ignorance with knowledge... how can that be a bad thing? Those of us who want to do better but do not necessarily have access to the teachings of and elder... We need all the help we can get. Mig8etc Mallory... please keep doing what you are doing. xo
4 sacred medicines? There are a lot more than that. Corn pollen for the Navajo as an example. You really need to make sure you aren't using blanket descriptions for all indigenous tribes. Eastern tribes are different from southwest tribes. Don't pan-indian the indigenous people.
Have you used tobacco as a sacred medicine before??
Actually not. Never even heard of it. Would definitely like to see more of this !
I grew up seeing my dad's cousin perform a smoke ritual at the graveside service for several relatives. I never knew what exactly this was, but it always interested me.

Usually after sex
Sounds like a good excuse to smoke
No
Our Native ancestors also used Ayahuasca, Peyote, Cacao, Sapo, San Padro, and Mushrooms.

Don’t forget about kava, kratom, and cannabis

Is there any other way to use tobacco besides what you explained and smoking it ?

It's just that this is my first time using sacred tobacco. I feel such a strong presence around it. Lol, it's kind of unnerving and I want to understand completely what that presence is.
@@maureenbrownlee1224 yes he is known as Grandfather Tobacco. Pray to him to receive his many blessings.
Thank you!!!!
Can the tobacco be used to wear off evil spirits?

What natives tribes ascribe to the sacred medicines?
Very good question Paul! Many tribes have the medicine wheel teachings and the sacred medicine teachings, but I am not sure what exact tribes! You might have to research each tribe and see what you can find :)
Also it was used for insect bites and as a drawing sap.
Interesting! Miigwetch for sharing!
@@MalloryRoseCo tru story. I come from an old Indian civilization located in southern Louisiana. I know that's what we still use it for. Hurricane Katrina kinda scattered us but the few among myself stayed through all the turmoil. True Story.
We mainly used it for our cattle and horses as a drawing sap. At one time Tobaccos was used for just about any ailment though. We used it for anny and everything back in the day. But, mainly it was uses for a drawing sap. Especially with our wildlife to help the cows and the horses that got bit by insects or snakes. Sometimes it worked other times it didn't.
If the wildlife got bit by a snake or a insect or any kind of injury we would wet the tobacco and put it on the wounds. Or if a kid got stung by a bee or a wasp. We would wet the tobacco in order to get the juices flowing and put it on the sting
It was a numbing agent/ drawing sap but you had to wet it.
Yes Canada is being very disrespectful of the culture.
Many here for sure are. Thanks for your comment!
To add also , I ahve been told I am a natural healer. As yet unproven: I couldnt save Dad.......
The cigarette J... have forever destroyed the image of tobacco with their toxic cardboard.
Hand rolled and pipe tobacco have zero effect on healths when used in moderation.
usually when you just know the species of the plant you know nothing about if it has different kinds, when to harvest, which part of the plant to use, how to prepare, with what to mix, how to consume etc. (a sheer endless list) --- one thing done wrong and the effects could be far less or be nothing at all
Are you native american? and if so what tribe? i have a touch of Cherokee :)
2:39 I'm not sure who told you those are tobacco leaves but I think you got scammed
That... that's real tobacco. It's thinly cut for rolling in cigarettes.
Smoking tobacco should be outlawed. I am a smoker myself. Some indigenous tribes that have been isolated for centuries know nothing of tobacco. The use of smoke in religious or spiritual ceremonies is acceptable.
So tobacco in traditional use is more of a currency than a mind altering substance.
What do you know about chewing tobacco? Would you say “chew” came about after the Spanish came to the Americas? And maybe after the Russians came to Alaska?
Cigars!
Are you omitting cannabis on purpose or because of its polarizing effects on viewers?
Cannabis isn’t one of our traditional medicines which is why it’s left out of this video.
Mapacho
I just smoke it.
Thanks for sharing!
So tobacco was never used as a healing plant for the physical body ever?
Indigenous to where?

Hi Robert. Please feel free to elaborate! :)
Lack of respect......😉
How does a young woman like her know all these things, and has the authority to tell people what elders should be telling. This to me is not right that is why we are losing what we were given years ago. No one has any respect of any sort nowadays. We need to use our elders.
Thank you for saying I look young 🥰
In the times we are living the sharing of heart-centered wisdom is always welcome, regardless of age, gender, etc. Truth is ageless.
This young person is helping me understand better, learn... so that I may be more respectful, be a better person as I replace ignorance with knowledge... how can that be a bad thing? Those of us who want to do better but do not necessarily have access to the teachings of and elder... We need all the help we can get. Mig8etc Mallory... please keep doing what you are doing. xo
4 sacred medicines? There are a lot more than that. Corn pollen for the Navajo as an example. You really need to make sure you aren't using blanket descriptions for all indigenous tribes. Eastern tribes are different from southwest tribes. Don't pan-indian the indigenous people.
