When you've had a hard day, there's nothing like spending time in nature to decompress—from the songs of the birds to the sweet smell of the flowers, the natural world around us is a true sanctuary. For many Indigenous communities, sweetgrass has long been used for natural healing. In some tribes, it is said that sweetgrass is one of the first things created by Mother Earth. With its soft green leaves growing up to 3ft tall, sweetgrass can be harvested for multiple purposes. From drying and braiding the leaves to using it in teas, sweetgrass is a sacred healing remedy—burn it to use the smoke to purify and protect your body, ancestors, and physical spaces, while also taking away negative energies, or use it in an ointment to heal physical ailments. From Alaska, the Great Lakes, to New Mexico, sweetgrass is one plant that has connected us all since the beginning of time—we are all forever connected. Remind yourself of the forever connection we all share as a community and bring a bit of good medicine with you wherever you go with our Forever Connected Collection.
