Mugwort ~ Medicine & Magic
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2023
- Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is an exceptional healing plant that has been used as a medicine for thousands of years in almost every corner of the world. In modern times it has become a scientifically validated herb in a number of different medical fields.
This documentary film provides an introduction to the plant itself, as well as a journey through its rich history of use throughout many different traditions. We also assess the wealth of scientific evidence that supports all of the historical uses from many different cultures. We also explore the shamanic practices invoking the spirit of Mugwort as a protector/guardian, and its role as a psychoactive herb associated with altered states of consciousness and dream healing.
Finally I reflect on my own experiences using Mugwort, and how it can serve as a portal through which we can begin reconnecting with the sacredness of the natural world all around us - something integral to humanity and mental health in general, that we have lost in this modern era.

It's good to see you again Paul. Don't leave it so long next time.
Thank you! I will try! It hasn't been easy but I do intend to return soon without such a long hiatus.
@@Nyishar if you are suffering mental anguish I'd recommend a carnivore diet. It has transformed my life immeasurably.
@@martinlouden9005 It's just been more difficult time-wise as video production is something I tend to immerse myself into. There isn't always enough time to disappear into a project until it reaches completion. Hopefully with better time management I can put in a more consistent appearance here.
@@Nyishar the video production was very nice.. its no wonder you really immerse yourself within the presentation.
@@djrg7921 To do such medicines justice requires of an immersive retreat in some respects. The production process for me resembles something a bit like that.
I'm just digging up some mugwort plants to give away to my friends, love love love the data, thankyou.
A mighty gift for your friends!
Wow! Very comprehensive!! I met mugwort as the spirit of the plant had called me to it months ago…I have felt and received nearly all of your understandings of the medicine. So integratively satisfying to confirm my natural awareness and receptive abilities of the wonderful medicine provided by our great creator!!
That creek looks so peaceful. You did an excellent job delivering all of this helpful information. I have a much deeper appreciation for Mugwort now than I did before watching this, and I am very appreciative of that.
Yes it is incredibly peaceful - no people at all, just expansive wilderness. I’m a glad you enjoyed the video and very happy to know you feel a deeper connection to Mugwort now because of it.
I really respect your approach in detail and the long form nature of your content.
Many thanks I appreciate that, and glad to know that this format works well for you.
So pleased to see you back brother 🙏🙌
You've been sorely missed..
Thank you for the kind words. Means a lot!
I am embarrassed to say I’m not familiar with your work but after watching this, I’m certainly going to rectify this. I’ve always been drawn to mugwort and all its family members and will have a good conversation with them. I also love wormwood. Thank much for this.
Yes the family of Artemisia's are tremendously supportive when collaborated with appropriately, when necessary, and with genuine respect and admiration. Excellent medicine, but with just enough poison to assert strong and healthy boundaries. If you are lucky enough to live near some wild Artemisia's, then some very interesting doors are potentially open to you.
I'm studying to become a clinical herbalist and you just helped me tremendously I ask of and encourage your continuation of making lessons for us all thank you brother
Happy to be of service and to know this video served a purpose for you! I would love to immerse myself back into video production but it might be a matter of months before that is possible, simply due to time constraints and other commitments at the moment. Numerous projects are planned and ready to go, I just need to be able to dedicate enough time and focus to bring them to fruition. It’s just a matter of time though, and more content will be arriving. Thank you for the support - I honestly do appreciate it.
This is really appreciated and a breath of fresh air. I can't help but get Buhner vibes from your grounded, balanced approach... which is a huge compliment and again, very appreciated.
Indeed that is a compliment that I am unworthy of, but appreciate none-the-less. I am very happy to know that you enjoyed the video!
Love the history of it. Thank you!
Love your voice doing this documentary
SO happy that you uploaded again! I have learned so much from you Paul
Hope you will post more..
Sending good energy your way
Thanks so much! My intention is to upload more frequently. Many ideas but not always enough time to materialize them! I will not leave it so long for the next one though 👍🏼
Thankyou so much. This is so informative and a gem to find for novices like myself🙏
Not a problem - I'm happy to know it proved to be useful in some way!
Thank you for this video, it was informative and just did something for me. I bought some dried mugwort for use in tea for yoga and lucid dreaming, and I was feeling a bit anxious to try it due to the different accounts online. Have you used it for tea and what is your opinion on the strength and frequency of use? I’d prefer to stay on the lower end anyway. Thanks again for the great content and I hope you’re doing well!
I knew this video was going to be awesome! I always appreciate your videos Paul! Thank you
Many thanks Bridgette! Happy to know you enjoyed it!
Another masterpiece of a video, thank you so much! You truly honoured Artemisia like she deserves to be. The intro is simply amazing, as you approach the plant and with that music, what a majestic moment, you have captured it so well! I have been inhalingg mugwort daily for several years - in a mix with damiana and another herb - and whereas I feel the various effects of Damiana quite clearly for instance, the effects of Mugwort seem much more subtle. I have neglected it in the last year as I somewhat let up on my strict practices, but after this video I intend to use it and worship it again more, because I feel the effects you describe are exactly what I've known in the past and what I've been missing. Thank you so much for the inspiration to reconnect more deeply with the Goddess of the wilderness. You are a great man!
Indeed Mugwort is a gentle and subtle ally, yet with a potent effect if focus and intent are applied. I hope reconnecting with Artemisia this year brings much healing and rest for you. Very happy to know the video resonated!
Welcome back💜!
I Love your videos and your products!
Thank you for this video. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE MUGWORT 💜
Remote viewers are drinking mugwort tea before a remote session, to help them get clarity!
It's an amazing plant, like many others!
Thank you! Yes truly an amazing medicinal plant! I just hope I have done it justice in this presentation.
Amazing content and very professional. Ive started to watch your channel not so long ago and Im happy to see youre still making new videos. I use mugworth for spliffs, with couple other herbs as well, and its very very good for my ceremonies. It nice to see someone with mind like yours can not only see potential with it, but also make great content to teach others. Will stay on your channel :) Its nice to see that there are still people with soo open mind.
Welcome aboard! Thank you for the kind words, and I’m happy to know this video had a positive impact.
This is such an incredible and well-done video. I appreciate you taking the time to compile this information for us. Thank you.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching - I am happy to know this video has proven to be useful for you!
A very thorough and fascinating presentation. I will most definitely collect it and dry it next summer. Thank you so much for this info compilation. You have such a flowing way of speaking, a perfect teacher. It's lovely to see you again too. Many blessings Paul.
Thank you! Much gratitude for your kind words and the time you have taken to watch this. I sincerely appreciate it.
Love the structure and editing effort that has gone into this vid, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is excellent! Thank you for sharing this knowledge. 🙏
Thank you for taking the time to watch it!
Just picked some today to make tea..
I felt guided to it. Found your vid after I picked. I'm surprised to hear all the amazing & beneficial ways I can use it..
It is a very special ally.
very, very nicely expressed. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much for watching and engaging - it is greatly appreciated!
Epic video, you are a master of several fields brother!
Thank you my friend - for the kind words and also for taking the time out of your schedule to watch. You have my gratitude.
Just bought 3 types of mugwort thanks for the heads-up I have incorporated many of your suggestions and am much better for it!@@Nyishar
Another expert level documenting! Professional video!!!! ✨✨✨✨✨well done!!!
Very kind of you to say so!
Very well done documentary, nice work. I had some mugwort in my garden for a few years its an interesting plant with a unique smell. Its nice that it grows wild in your area, I just harvested a wild Lions Mane a few days ago close to home from a tree that Ive gotten them from 3 times before over the last few years.
Many thanks my friend. Glad you enjoyed it. That’s great your LM flush keeps coming back. I’m in the Loire Valley in France and there are many large forests here with so many wild mushrooms. Yet to find LM though. Gourmet mushrooms are big in this country though so they may have to legislate the foraging of it like they did in the UK. Expensive restaurants were the cause of near-extinction of LM in the UK forests and it is now illegal to pick it, although nobody enforces that law. Could possibly end up the same here which is a bummer. Still plenty of species to choose from in the wild though. It’s good your spot is so close to home - hopefully it’ll keep fruiting for years to come!
goosebumps, thanks a thousand times!
Thank you for watching!
Outstanding 👏

Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow , thanks.
Thank you for watching !
You are back
Hello again!
🙏Namaste
thank you! magnificent! yes, lets not forget the script! LOL
Don't forget the script, but equally, don't forget to improvise!
I especially stay away from allopathic doctors and almost always go to herbs as I am a herbalist. I find hundreds and thousands of years to be good enough for in proving efficacy.
thank you for this.this plant has taken over my yard..i will be more happy about this....
A sign of good fortune! Mugwort is not easy to get rid of - better to ally yourself with it!
Hello our good friend.
We are IN the wettest part of the UK - N.I.
Tried many times to grow Mugwort outdoor, doesn't grow. Tried to grow indoor under light and Windowsill, doesn't grow. Bought as a large plant from EU, after 4 month died of.
Is any recommendations you can give for growing this amazing plant?
Ah I see. Yes Mugwort has a very wild nature and grows only where it chooses. It is not so easy to cultivate and tends to propagate via rhizome distribution rather than seed dispersal. It also prefers low quality soil in disturbed and often derelict areas. Identifying it in the wild is best if you can find it in your area. Otherwise it can be grown from a wild root cutting, but again, if the location where it is planted is not suitable, then it just won't do well. If you can find wild specimens where you are then this will be ideal, as the plant will be so much stronger and more nutritious/medicinal than any you could cultivate. However, if it enjoys the soil and microclimate, it can spread quickly and be near impossible to get rid of. In short, there are a number of variables to meet in order to succeed with cultivation, hence wild-harvesting is infinitely easier if you can find it.
So should i smoke it?
Thankyou Paul.
Not a problem. Thank you for taking the time to watch.
@@Nyishar I reposted it to 'vk' as I hope others will also benefit from your diligent and well presented research. 'Not a problem' xaxa, No, the word seems inappropriate however colloquial the phrase. As for my time, I have one plant and had no idea of its value and am humbled by my ignorance - by using my time, you were able to touch vital issues I would be wise to adress.
Thanks for the blessing dear man.
Thankyou for this.Mug wort introduced itself to me and has been nudging me ever-increasinly to pay it more attention. Would the use of mug wort show up in drug test due to its similarity to thc? I would love to begin to work with her, but am co concerned that it might get me sacked if It came up in a urine test. Really appreciate the video and any advice you may be able to provide on this area? 🙏
This is a very good question, but unfortunately I do not have the answer as I don't know how accurate or vague the urine test may be. Thujone is chemically similar to THC but by no means is it identical. Also, the potency of thujone within a single specimen of Mugwort is exponentially less than the quantity of THC found in any psychoactive strain of cannabis. I want to say that it will be fine (it probably is), but there is no way of knowing for sure. You can only be certain by trying it for yourself, but of course there is a risk factor that you must be aware of.
Thanks for comming back to me it's much appreciated sir. I had dried some themat was flowering in the summer. Hey life throws its ups n downs which we deal with daily. I have decided to hive it a go after reviewing some other Internet content. Which seemed confirm it would be OK. I have some home urine tests which used t chech my thc levels before the mandatory test at work and hey they worked it showed nil thc in my system after approx 3 months of nil usage. I used to smoke daily to help me sleep. Past the test at work yay. Am now very it to lucid dreaming as without the weed I dream like crazy. Hope the mugwort will help me get a grip out this dream state, an give me the relaxation I Wass used to. Jus experimenting with teas and smoking this wknd seem good, gonna a do a wee test. Let u know the result if you interested, nit sure yhe straight I found or using to be fair,but out I found in a local park. I tjink think this is a healing, beneficial spirit and won't do me harm. If that makes sense 🙂👍thanks again 🙏
Have you seen the video of the highschool kid using oregano oil to kill bacteria better that amoxicillin?
No I haven’t, but it doesn’t surprise me at all.
It's taken over my land - is it trying to tell me something?
Quite possibly! Perhaps you need its medicine, or its protective properties on a more psychic level… or maybe the land lacks native biodiversity or has deficient soil… your mission is to find out what the reason is. I wish you the best of luck!
I think truth in this. When I started on the narrow path, I wanted to find some Artemisa Absinthe, and within a few days I met a lady, mentioned it to her and she gave me a cutting as she had a plant. This led me onto Mugwort, which just appeared in my veg patch as if by magic?
@@salvadorpicasso1503 That happens a lot when you enter into the herbal world... welcome to the plant world!
