Rollin' Mullein! How to make a Mullein smudge bundle for coughs & congestion

One of the nearly lost skills is how to forage for food & medicinal plants & store them for the winter when they simply can't be found anywhere. Mullein has a long history of it's medicinal benefits primarily as aa treatment for respiratory conditions like coughs & congestion as well as others like migraine headaches to ear aches. It is often made into tinctures, oils or dried for tea or smoke. Regarding using the smoke it has been used as a part of an heb blend or alone. It is sad indigenous people smoked it when for relief when they smoked too much tobacco. Mullein leaf when dried loose is incredibly fragile so tying it into a bundle before drying helps safely preserve it for use making teas or as smoke. The method I use for tying a smudge bundle is virtually the same as I do with Prairie Sage on this video    • How to Harvest Wild Sage & Make a Smu...   . Another alternative to storing Mullein over the winter months is as a tincture found here    • Simple Mullein Leaf Tincture, too easy!
