Aloe. Try a lotion that is mostly aloe. I had a really bad sunburn, REALLY bad from head to toe when I was 14, kept me up for like 2 days straight. Didn't get any relief until I put aloe all over my body. Instant relief and it went away and healed SO quick I was amazed. Buy an aloe plant too. They are good for when you get a burn on your finger or a cut, you can break the leave in half and inside it's full of pure aloe, and it's pretty cool. It has pretty cool healing powers.

It wasn't exactly a formal ceremony, but a Native American friend of mine asked to smudge my bedroom because she thought there was something spiritually wrong there. So I let her. She smudged my entire room with burning sage (and, I think, some lavender).

Native Americans were the first people to use tobacco as it was indigenous to the Americas and had been using it for thousands of years when the first Europeans arrived. Consequently, no-one knows who the first person to grow tobacco was as the weren't any written records. It was often used by shamen as when it is used in high quantities it becomes hallucogenic. John Rolfe was the first man to grow tobacco commercially in Virginia

Uhm... I think you've got things just a little bit distorted, lol. It's not the Indians who became the first Mormons. According to the Mormon philosophy, the first Native Americans were European settlers who turned brown when they first migrated to the new land. Hence, the first Native Americans.\n\nSo, perhaps the question you should be asking is, why don't Europeans (Whites or Caucasians) turn brown when they integrate into Native American culture?
