Traditionally used by Native Americans for Spiritual and Cultural ceremonies – It is recommended you use White Sage, Salvia Apiana regularly to keep your house clear of any build-up of negative energy and low vibrations, particularly useful at the beginning of a new season or before an event like meditation, yoga or group workshop.

White sage – Salvia Apiana– is a special and sacred herb, best grown along the sunny coastline of California, USA where it is wild-harvested sustainably in perfect climate conditions. For many a century, Native American’s have used this herb for ceremonial use to clear and purify the energy of the environment before cultural and spiritual events. A lit smudge stick is said to send your prayers through the smoke up to the heavens, so the smoke connects us to the Spiritual realms.
You can use White Sage in your home, work or any environment you would like to energetically clear. It is a good idea to do a House Clearing Ritual when you first move into or buy a house.
