Healing Blend

The Smoking Blend by Da Lua Herbals is a chemical-free and plant-based alternative filled with therapeutic properties

These tobacco substitutes usually contain two types of organic, medicinal plants: base herbs and aromatic herbs. The base herbs provide a pleasant consistency when rolling, and a round and gentle smoke. The aromatic herbs add a touch of flavour, some plants being more subtle than others. Blends will always contain at least one base herb and one aromatic, and sometimes more, from the following list:

– Base herbs: raspberry leaf, mallow, damiana, and/or mullein (subject to availability)

– Aromatic herbs: marigold, catnip, peppermint, sage, jasmine, and/or lotus (subject to availability)

To find out more about the properties of each plant, view the “Ingredients & Properties” tab or download the product file PDF.

(Specific healing mixes can be custom-made upon request. Keep in mind most plants are seasonal and therefore not all blends are available all year long. If you want a specific base herb, let me know in the comment section when placing your order. If it isn’t available I’ll select the most similar one.)

Ingredients & Properties

BASE HERBS

– Raspberry: is balancing and has a very neutral flavour and similar texture to organic tobacco, making it perfect for smokers transitioning from tobacco. It contains a lot of medicinal compounds such as tannins, flavonoids, ellagic acid, vitamin A, C, potassium, calcium and phosphorus.

– Mallow: is soothing for the throat, produces mild relaxation due to its terpenoids and soothes the mucus membranes of the gut lining, throat, lungs, and lymph nodes.

– Mullein: is cleansing and expectorant for the lungs. It offers a light, calming sensation while helping to cleanse and soothe the lungs. It can also support those struggling with sleep.

– Damiana: has been used traditionally for relaxation, lung cleansing, and mood enhancement, potentially alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression.

AROMATIC HERBS

– Marigold: The bright orange and vibrant flower petals create a fully balanced smoke blend that burns evenly and tastes smooth and delicious, without interfering with other flavours. It has anti-inflammatory healing properties that calm muscle spasms, heal ulcers, and aid menstruation.

– Catnip: is soothing to the nervous system, improves sleep and digestion, and relieves toothaches. It tastes delicately fresh.

– Peppermint: is a strong purifying agent, clearing the respiratory passages, and therefore lowers cravings of nicotine. It is stimulating, improves blood circulation, relaxes the nerves and gives a fresh aftertaste.

– Sage: is a powerful cleanser, both physical and energetic. It lifts moods, combats depression, relieves congestion and stuffed nose. Has a potent flavour and smell, so it is best smoked alone rather than mixed with tobacco or other herbs.

– Jasmine: with a fairly neutral flavour and round smoke, it reduces the heart rate and brings on feelings of relaxation and optimism.

– Lotus: is noted for its calming euphoria, aphrodisiac qualities, sedation and anxiety relieving qualities.
