Smoking herbs and drinking herbal blend teas have been a part of history for many years. Herbs and herbal blends have been used for ceremonial, religious and even medicinal purposes. Ancient cultures have used herbs to provoke relaxation, sleep, euphoric states and even to enhance dreaming.

Herbs are not drugs and can not be viewed as alternatives to drugs. By "alternatives" I mean as another source of getting the same "effect" you get from drugs or medication. Drugs and or medications are manufactured by pharmaceutical companies and are regulated by the FDA and a doctor's diagnosis and prescription is required to use such drugs and or medications.

Herbs on the other hand are grown naturally in nature and can be used without prescription, though it is wise to consult with your doctor before using any herbal products. Homeopathic medication is becoming much more popular due mainly to the increased awareness the internet provides, studies being done on herbs and their healing properties as well as the ever increasing cost of pharmaceutical medications.

Today's reasons for smoking all natural herbal blends range from trying to avoid the harmful effects of other additives, such as Nicotine, in tobacco products to marijuana users opting for a legal smoking option other than cigarettes.

Speaking of Marijuana, if you're looking for an herb to give you the exact same effects as marijuana, then you should know that there is no other plant just like marijuana. Therefore it would be foolish to believe you will find another herb that will produce the exact same effects as marijuana.

Having said that, it is not foolish to believe that you can find incenses that can, when lit and the aroma inhaled, cause calming effects and long moments of serenity and peacefulness and herbs and herbal smoking blends that relax and calm you and even create contemplative states. In fact there are many such herbs as well as websites offering them. Which herbs are right for you is a matter of what effects you want.

Visit the links I've provided in the directory and look through the sites for yourself. Read and learn what herbs will produce the effects for which you are looking. Please keep in mind that some reaction may vary between person to person. Everyone has their own tastes and tolerances.

They only way to really know which herbal smoke is right for you is to try various types. Many of the sites have several sampler packs available at very reasonable prices. The best thing is that all of the products offered are 100% legal and will not give a positive reading on any drug test.

Note: Smoking any product whether it be herbal, tobacco, marijuana etc. is not good for your lungs. Drawing burnt material into the lungs is bound to have some negative repercussions. If you insist upon doing so you might want to consider using a vaporizer.
