The Journey Begins Back There...
Before there was silk, a grinder, or a lighter with a leash, humanity already knew the power of herbs. The habit of burning plants and inhaling their properties is older than many people imagine—and can be considered one of the first social and spiritual rituals in history.
But after all, who smoked the world's first joint?
The Origin of Ritual: Long Before Urban Culture
Archaeological records show that, more than 2,500 years ago , Central Asian peoples used burning aromatic herbs in spiritual ceremonies. In 2019, archaeologists found traces of a type of incense burner in a tomb in the Pamir Mountains , present-day China, containing organic residue rich in natural compounds that alter perception.
In other words, the first “jock” in history may have been smoked by shamans or spiritual leaders in sacred rituals , and not for fun — at least not as we know it today.
From Shamanism to Urban Tribes
Over time, the ritualistic use of herbs spread: Ancient Egypt, India, African tribes, and indigenous cultures of the Americas all found in plants a bridge between body and spirit. The idea of "taking a break," relaxing, meditating, and connecting with something greater was already part of the essence of ritual long before it became a modern lifestyle.
Today, the culture has evolved, but the spirit remains the same: self-knowledge, connection, creativity, and pause in the midst of chaos.
