Deluxe Organic White Sage & Lavender Smudge

Our Sage is organic, sustainably grown, harvested, and wrapped in the USA. This listing is for one (1) Deluxe White Sage with Lavender Smudge Stick. Each stick is 5-5.5" in length.

White sage is believed to cleanse a space of any evil spirits or 'negative' energies that may be present. This power is said to be released from the plant by the burning of the leaves, which are typically bundled into a wand or stick. Today many Native American tribes still use the stems and leaves for smudging as part of purification ceremonies and is considered sacred in their culture.

Lavender brings a positive energy, opens the heart chakra, calms the mind, releases fear while being effective at soothing the nervous system. Lavender has powers of protection, calming and cleansing.

Please note, this is a natural, handmade product and the placement and quantity of flowers may vary from stick to stick, as well as the size and shape of the bundle and the amount/type of Lavender used. This means that each stick has its own distinct energy and personality, adding to the beauty and power of this sacred tool. There also may be a slightly different color than is pictured due to variations in computer monitors and the natural quality of these items.

Smudging:

Smudging is traditionally used in rituals, ceremonies and for spiritual purification, house blessings, and energy cleansing. The smoke is believed by many to cleanse either a space or the body and aura, drive away negative energy and help reconnect with mother earth. Make sure the room where you are smudging is well ventilated with doors and windows open. This helps the negative energy to flow freely out while allowing the smoke to clear the air.

Carefully light one end using a small flame. Allow the end to burn for a few seconds, then quickly blow out the flame. Place the smoking stick on a fire-safe surface - e.g. metal or clay bowl, shell, crystal agate dish, etc. Keep a small dish or cup of water nearby for quick distinguishing.

Do not use it if you suffer from Asthma or have respiratory issues. Do not use near infants or young children or anyone who is pregnant. Do not leave burning smudge unattended and make sure the stick is extinguished after use.
