Ohhhh datura. A night-blooming poisonous & trippy plant, it is suggested that you don’t work with it internally unless you are working with a skilled facilitator. However working with datura topically is a really wonderful way to receive support. This balm is made in small batches from datura plants that I’ve grown and tended for years.

A beautiful remedy for pain (bone and also muscle—deep tissue & injuries, joint, arthritis), headaches, depression, anxiety, & insomnia. Start slowly with a dime-sized amount, or as small as possible to cover affected area and see how you feel. Slowly build up to using a bit more as you feel into the medicine of the plant.

If using for pain management, in acute moments, every 4-6 hours is ok but best used short-term.

If using for sleep, can take upwards of an hour or two to help so feel free to take as you’re winding down in the evening. Best not to use every night but once a week to a few times a month is perfectly ok.

Energetically: blooming at night with the sweetest single drop of nectar the morning after, datura is a remedy for holding us between the poles of dark and light, a reminder that they are mirrors. As void medicine, it helps guide us through the emotional and energetic threshold and freewill or releasing what is no longer serving us. To allow for a death, or an ending, invites space for the new to bloom. The death needed can be parts of ourselves that need release, old narratives that bind us to the past, relationships and dynamics that don’t serve our growth that diminish or cast a shadow on love. It invites real, sustaining connection and aliveness that exists under all the wounding and old harmful patterns. It’s bold, firey, medicine of the underworld. It supports welcoming the open palm instead of believing that clutching tight is the only way through. This balm is a lovely tool for ritual and shadow work and works nicely with a flower essence of datura.

Each order comes with a card with directions for use.

  • “I ordered your Datura Balm for my partner's mom a couple of months ago. She has chronic nerve pain and so far its helped more than anything else she's tried (and she's trying everything!). Thank you so much for you herbalism and general work in the world!”— Melissa Keller, Awaken Heart Somatics

    "Your Datura balm and Melt Melt balm are thing only thing that help my partner with their severe pain from endometriosis. Thanks so much for making great products!" --River

    “I just wanted to write a note to you about your magical balm. I received it on a day that I was hurting very badly, I was having major muscle spasms in my back and neck, and couldn't turn my head to the right most of the day. My normal pain medication and canna-cream didn't touch the pain. I thought my poor husband would have to drive me around, until I tried your Datura balm. It worked wonders!!! Within 1 application I was feeling so much better, and the pain was completely resolved after only three or four applications (over about two days.) Thankfully, due to your dedication to your craft and your obvious talent, I'm not feeling as broken and hopeless as before. My endless thanks to you!!!”— Aubrey

    “I LOVE the datura balm. Thank you for sharing that medicine with me! It feels like it penetrates so deeply, almost like a warm throbby sensation that feels extremely supportive. I've been struggling with occasional flare ups in low back and neck pain that can be quite severe, and I've really valued the datura balm as part of my care routine, especially in combination with heat. I've also been using it sometimes as a lubricant for guasha on my neck and traps - and that has been lovely. The care and intention you put into crafting this balm, and all your medicines, truly comes through in how they resonate with the body. <3”— Kim C.
