Para Mi Herbs

Para Mí means "for me," and that's exactly what people ask for when they use it: good things coming their way. Each order is one fresh bunch.

What is Para Mí used for?

Para Mí is an attraction herb. It's used in spiritual baths to draw luck, love, money and opportunities toward you, and it's a favorite for people starting something new or hoping to turn their luck around.

How do people use it?

• Attraction baths: the leaves are torn into water, often with sweet herbs, for a bath to draw good fortune.
• Business and home: the water is used to wash the entrance of a business or home to attract customers and blessings.
• Combined work: it's often mixed with herbs like Vencedor or Paraíso.

It's a gentle herb that many people use regularly. Your godparent or olorisha will tell you exactly how it fits into your own work, since every house has its own way.
