High Desert Sage has a light and woody aroma that is less bitter than the traditional white sage. While it is sought after for its many medicinal purposes, it is used a smudging herb to clear negative energy, drive out evil spirits and induce sweating, among other purposes. Our desert sage grows wild at high altitudes in the United States.

Aroma: Light woody

Intention: To cleanse one’s space or body, drive out evil spirits. Smudging is a spiritual purification process that can be thought of as a cleansing smoke bath that involves lighting the stick, gently blowing out the flame and placing it safely in a fireproof bowl, allowing the smoke to fill your space and wash over your body. This practice is held sacred within the Native American culture as well as shamanism.

Key features:

• Hand-harvested and sun-dried under the Californian sun in accordance to Native American tradition
• 100% natural
• Intention smudge for spiritual purification and to get rid of any negative energy.
• Charitable cause

Ingredients

Sun-dried High Desert Sage bundled in 100% cotton thread

How to use: Light the tip of the bundle until there’s a small flame. Gently blow it out until only smoke is produced. Place it in a fireproof bowl in a safe place away from flammable objects, children and pets. Smudging is done by safely carrying the smoking bundle (still in the bowl) throughout your space so the smoke reaches every corner.
