These kits include a white sage smudge stick, a palo santo stick and a beautiful ceramic burning dish.
First you start with a simple intention of focusing on clearing the negative energy out of your space and mind. Once you have your intention in mind, light the Sage or Palo Santo and hold at a 45 degree angle pointing the tip down towards the flame. Allow it to burn for 30 seconds and then blow it out.
When we smudge, we first cleanse our hands with the smoke as if we were washing our hands. We then draw the smoke over our heads, eyes, ears, mouths and our bodies. These actions remind us to think good thoughts, see good actions, hear good sounds, speak good words, and show the good of who we are.
What to say when smudging your house?
"With the cleansing power of this sage, I release all negative energy from this space. May it be filled with light, love, and positive vibrations. As I walk through this sacred smoke, may my body, mind, and spirit be cleansed and renewed."
