Smudging is a ceremonious ritual for cleansing, balancing, and prayer. The practice of smudging is an ancient practice, while smudging sage is a Native American and Indigenous North American practice.

Sage is often used to dispel energy (referenced as an herb that balances negative ions with positive ions when burned) The smell of sage can help to stabilize one’s mood while the smoke can kill bacteria. Sage is a great energy cleansing agent.

Palo Santo (Sacred Wood) is from the Bursera graveolens tree. Palo Santo is harvested after the tree naturally falls and is believed to only be effective and blessed if it is harvested from a naturally fallen tree. Palo Santo expels negative energy while maintaining positive energy.
