コンセプト
Healing (Shifa) is not the erasure of what was broken — it is the integration of what was broken into something new and whole. Miramiyya (sage) is the most universally used medicinal plant in Palestinian folk medicine: pressed against wounds, brewed for fevers, placed in water for rinsing.
الشفاء ليس محو ما انكسر — بل هو دمج ما انكسر في شيء جديد وكامل. الميرمية هي أكثر النباتات الطبية استخدامًا في الطب الشعبي الفلسطيني.
模様について
Four sage-leaf diamonds radiate from the center toward the four directions — at three distances each, like a prescription: take from the plant at this distance, and this distance, and this distance. Shifa is specific and local: the healing plant that grows in this soil, processed by these hands, applied with this knowledge. Palestinian folk medicine preserved in the miramiyya tradition is empirical knowledge accumulated over millennia — not remedy but protocol, not superstition but practice.
أربعة معينات على شكل أوراق ميرمية تشعّ من المركز نحو الاتجاهات الأربعة — على ثلاث مسافات كل منها. الشفاء محدد ومحلي: النبتة الشافية التي تنمو في هذه التربة، تُعالَج بهذه الأيدي.

文化的な背景
Sage (miramiyya) is the most universally used medicinal plant in Palestinian folk medicine — gathered from the hillsides, dried in the house, and applied in multiple forms across a wide range of conditions. The Palestinian miramiyya tradition is not folk superstition but a sophisticated empirical pharmacological knowledge accumulated over millennia of observation and refined through oral transmission across generations.
Palestinian folk medicine preserved in the miramiyya tradition encompasses detailed knowledge of preparation methods (fresh, dried, decocted, poulticed), application protocols (topical, oral, aromatic), and combination treatments. This knowledge was transmitted through the same channels as embroidery patterns — from mothers to daughters, from experienced healers to apprentices, through the careful oral tradition that preserved Palestinian cultural knowledge across generations of disruption.
Contemporary Palestinian communities — particularly in the diaspora — have used the gathering and preparation of miramiyya as a form of cultural healing: recreating the specific smell and taste of the Palestinian landscape in kitchens far from home. The act of making miramiyya tea is a small sensory return — the smell of the plant is the smell of the specific hillside it grew on, the specific season it was gathered in, the specific hands that dried it.
振り返り
What are you healing from — and what new form is emerging from the old breaking?
