 About Smudges and Smudging

Smudge Sticks or Bundles are all-natural ceremonial incense traditionally burned in Native American rituals. Today, doctors, therapists, and body workers are discovering the beneficial aspects of these herbs.They are one of the means by which people around the globe are reconnecting with the power of Mother Nature. 

 "Sage makes the bad spirits go away from it when it is burned.  It does not make the good spirits sick.  They will not leave when it is smoked.  Sweet grass is pleasant to all the spirits.  Good spirits like it.  Bad spirits like it.  All like it.  The smoke of sweet grass is pleasant to the good spirits.  They come to the smoke.  They are pleased with one who makes this smoke.  They will listen to what such a one asks.  But the bad spirits come also to enjoy the smoke.  So, sage must be burned to make them sick.  Then, sweet grass to bring good spirits."

The use of smudge sticks for cleansing and purification is a tradition common to many cultures, including both the Native American and Celtic paths. These smudge sticks are available in the following combinations: Sage (from New Mexico); Sage & Cedar; Sage & Copal; Sage & Lavender; Sage & Sweetgrass; California White Sage; and braided Sweetgrass

Our sage is grown in the high desert climate of remote New Mexico, and is harvested by hand with great love and respect for Mother Earth - with offerings of blue corn left as a 'thank you' to the land. Sustainable agricultural methods are practiced, with no more than 25% of the plant removed so that it will continue to thrive.
