Comment

With no side effects apparent there is no downside to using sage, so it is worth experimenting with.

One wonders if the use of sage smoke in various religious rituals through time is related to this enhanced memory aspect – ie, is it assisting practitioners in accessing cellular memories or those stored in our rear brain?
