Cleanse & Purify
WHITE SAGE & ROSEMARY / SALVIA ROMERO / SAUGE ROSEMARY
This smudge stick combines white sage and rosemary to take benefit of the purifying properties from both plants at the same time.
White sage is a well-known medicinal plant. Its scientific name is Salvia Apiana, which comes from the Latin salvare - to heal. Most of its properties are found in the leaves, which absorb the sun's energy to produce masses of essential oils. In Celtic Europe, druids used sage to increase their wisdom, healing and for protective rituals. Many Native American cultures have also used the plant to purify the body and soul.
Rosemary is a powerful uplifting plant that allows you to raise good vibrations and cleanse negative energies. It can also be used during protective rituals for both people and places. After burning rosemary, the atmosphere is clean and we feel a sense of calm and well-being.

How to use it for cleansing
Purification rituals are universal practices wich are said to increase mental clarity, joy, and peace.
1. Use a heat-resistant container such as an abalone shell. Place it on top of a suitable foundation or stand and take a feather or a fan.
2. Light the sage bundle, preferably with a match. Let the leaves burn for a few seconds and then blow out the flame. Be careful, the leaves can easily be blown away.
3. Go through each room and direct the fragrant smoke with the feather or fan towards the place you want to purify.
4. Wait for the sage bundle to burn out. According to indigenous beliefs, the sage will continue to burn until the cleansing is complete. Remember, smudging is an intention-based ritual. With a pure heart and noble aspiration, you will increase its effect.
Ventilate the room after use. Do not inhale the fumes directly.
