Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) has a long history of traditional use among Native American tribes and other indigenous peoples of North America, but its use for emotional sensitivity is primarily rooted in folk and ceremonial practices rather than scientific validation. Traditionally, sagebrush has been burned as a smudge for spiritual cleansing, purification, and to ward off negative energy. Some traditions believe that the aroma or ritual use of sagebrush can help balance emotions, relieve stress, and promote a sense of calm or emotional resilience. However, these effects are anecdotal and based on cultural beliefs rather than controlled clinical studies. There is currently no robust scientific evidence supporting the use of sagebrush, whether as an herbal remedy or aromatherapy, specifically for the treatment or management of emotional sensitivity. While the ritual and symbolic uses may offer comfort or psychological benefit to some individuals, this should not be confused with evidence-based treatment. Therefore, the justification for using sagebrush for emotional sensitivity is primarily traditional and the level of supporting evidence is low.
