Über diesen Titel
Every wellness boutique sells "smudging" bundles now—white sage, palo santo, vague "cleansing" blends that have nothing to do with you or your ancestors. You're participating in cultural appropriation while completely missing the fact that your own European lineage had smoke traditions. Real ones. Not for vibes or Instagram aesthetics, but for survival during plague outbreaks, for fumigating sickrooms, for respiratory medicine that kept people alive when there were no other options. This episode explores juniper burned in plague hospitals, rosemary smoke for the dying, mugwort at thresholds, and the constitutional understanding of air quality that made herbal fumigation actual public health practice. We're talking about smoke as disinfectant, as respiratory medicine, as threshold protection—before the wellness industry commodified and stripped it of all meaning. If you want smoke as medicine, use your own damn plants. This is European fumigation history: harsh, practical, effective, and yours to reclaim without stealing from cultures that have already been colonized enough.
