Mullein Leaf is a calming herb with gentle expectorant properties and a sedative nature. Along with its soothing mucilage for the respiratory tract and lungs, mullein leaf is great for asthma, breathing difficulties, bronchitis, chronic coughs, congestion and lung weakness.
 
Mullein can be consumed in a tea, smoked with rolling paper, or placed in a burn proof container and burn as you would sage or incense for children. Mullein tincture can be made from both the root and and the leaves. The leaves are more attuned to the lungs and the root more attuned to the joints and nerves.
 
Spiritual Benefits: Mullein is used to align the heart chakra as with any plant that tones and supports the lungs corresponds to the heart. When we feel grief it can often become stuck in our lungs due to the tension, tightening and /or holding of breath that occurs as a response to stress and fear.
