How to Smudge

Hola gorgeous Goddess!

A lovely goddess asked me a couple of days ago if she was smudging the right way.

With all these things – just trust your beautiful intuition, and set the intention to clear your energy or space, and that’s perfect.

Here’s just one way you can smudge yourself…

Begin with a smudge stick – you can purchase these from new age bookstores, health stores & online. Smudge sticks are made from dried herbs – common herbs include sage, sweetgrass, lavendar and pine.

Light it with a candle until one end is fully lit. Then blow gently to extinguish the flame until the smudge stick is smouldering.

Using your hand or a feather, waft the smudge stick all around your aura. Smudging helps to release negative energies, clear away anything that is old or stuck, and bring you into the present moment. SO beautiful!

Keep smudging until you feel cleansed and clear. Remember to smudge around your hands, head and feet as well.

After finished, I like to give a prayer of thanks.

When extinguishing, use sand or a terracotta bowl to ensure all the burning embers are extinguished.

Hope this is helpful, precious soul!
Big love,
