For those who feel cut off and alienated from the Earth, who feel unworthy and undeserving and consequently develop destructive patterns of behaviour, not caring whether they damage themselves and similarly not caring if the Earth herself is damaged. This "what do I care" attitude comes from a place of separation, isolation and pain - the type of feeling which the use of tobacco numbs. This essence lessens emotional pain by reinforcing the link with the Earth, opening the heart chakra and instilling a sense of wholeness. It has a primary use in breaking the emotional addiction to tobacco, which makes the physical addiction much easier to heal.
