Cleansing people, living spaces and objects with the smoke of white sage (Salvia Apiana) smudge is very effective and very popular in western countries. Energy therapists and body-workers are also increasingly discovering its benefits.

Smudge bundles are a completely natural, ceremonial incense, which were and are burnt during rituals and ceremonies among indigenous peoples in the Americas.

Safety advice when using smudges:

Prepare a fireproof bowl or abalone shell and a bag of sand. Light the end of the bundle and fan it for a while so that the flame goes out and the bundle continues to smoulder.

If the smudge is tightly bundled, blow extra to keep the herbs smouldering properly. With this smouldering bundle, perform the smudge ceremony. Make sure the fireproof bowl is kept under the smudge bundle at all times.

After the end of the session or ceremony, you can extinguish the bundle again in a bowl of sand (check carefully that it is actually out) and keep the bundle for another use.
