White Sage Smudge Stick

White Sage Smudge Stick (Californian) - 10cm

White Sage is hailed as the cleanser of all negativity. Be it in our homes, our items or even ourselves. The experience is subtle at first, then over the next few weeks you suddenly realize how your home and surrounds feel calmer and what once stressed you to the max, somehow seem to be easier to deal with. 

• Smudging your home with White Sage will bring a sense of lightness and brightness.
• Smudging yourself after a stressful situation will bring you peace, calm and clarity.

Native Americans from long ago used this magical herb in their rituals to rid them of evil, sickness, anger and bad luck. They would dry the White Sage and the burn it to release its enriching smoke onto the member of their tribe that was struck down with these negativity traits.

How to use your Smudge Stick

• Before you start, make sure each room you enter has a window that is slightly open

• Start at your front door, light your smudge stick. Wait for the flames to distinguish and then gently blow on the stick to encourage embers to smoke. 

• Smudge yourself starting from the tip of your head and allow the smoke to move around your body as you say to yourself “RELEASE ALL THAT DOES NOT SERVE ME” and hold this in your mind as you move around your home. Where thought goes energy flows, so it’s important to remain positive and focused as you cleanse yourself and then your home of all negative, stale energy. 

• Holding your fireproof bowl as you walk around your home from your front door clockwise spreading the smoke from the stick to go up into the corners and around your room 

• Continue until you finish at the front door. 

• Then extinguish your smudge stick into the sand in your fireproof bowl or let it smoke out. 

Incense Safety
