For peace, purification and a fresh start
Smudge sticks are bundles of dried herbs that you let smoulder, releasing aromatic smoke. The ritual has a long tradition and is often used today to take a moment to reflect, for a moment of energetic cleansing with sage and palo santo or to mark a new beginning. For example, after a visit, when moving house or before meditation. A white sage smudge is a popular choice for this. For some, smudging is a spiritual practice; for others, it is primarily a soothing aromatic ritual that fits in with cleaning, priming and protecting.
Which option is right for you?
If you like a powerful, spicy scent, white sage is often the go-to choice. A combination of palo santo and white sage feels warmer and woodier and complements essential oils for protection and purification. Prefer something gentle and floral? Then a lavender smudge is perfect for an evening ritual or a relaxing moment to yourself. Also bear in mind the size: a small sage stick is ideal for the occasional use, whilst a larger bundle is better for regular use or for multiple rooms. If you’re unsure, or if you’d like to compare more options within products for energy cleansing, then we at De Groene Linde would be happy to advise you in person.
How to use a smudge stick safely
Light the end briefly, blow out the flame and let the bundle smoulder gently. Move the smoke around the room, along the corners or around an object, whilst keeping your intention in mind. Leave a window slightly ajar and always use a fireproof dish or shell for the ashes, or a suitable incense burner to ensure everything is safely contained. Never leave a burning smudge stick unattended and take care around children, pets and flammable materials. Once you have finished, carefully extinguish the bundle to ensure it is completely out.
Frequently asked questions
What do you use a smudge stick for?
Many people use a smudge stick to consciously refresh a space, to begin a ritual, to create a sense of calm after a busy day, or to give a meditation or yoga session some extra focus. Read more more about using a smudge stick.
What should you avoid doing when smudging?
Do not smudge without proper ventilation; do not use a burning bundle without a fireproof surface; and never leave a smouldering stick unattended. If you are sensitive to smoke, keep the ritual short and calm.
How often can you use a smudge stick?
That depends on the size of the bundle and how long you leave it to smoulder. Most smudge sticks can be used several times, as long as you extinguish them properly after each use and store them in a dry place.
