myrrh and the baby jesus of palestine: sacred smokes


Listen Later

Happy Holla-days babes,

We are ending the sacred smokes series in a very special way by engaging in the medicine of Myrrh. Myrrh is a resin from the middle east that we are calling on for it’s healing properties at a time like this; a war, a genocide and the celebration of the birth of one of the most famous Palestinian Jews on Earth, Jesus Christ. 

Brew up a cup on mint tea and lets chat!
