The bottom line of all of this is that there are ways to take care of yourself and your space to make all aspects of your life better (including work). For thousands of years, cultures around the world have burned plants for spiritual and healing purposes. The idea is to keep it alight for this time so that when you blow out the flame, a red ember will still be there creating smoke. At this point, you'll want to grab the ash-catching bowl to prevent any mishaps.

As for sage in particular, North American indigenous groups have a ceremony using sage called the Sacred Smoke Bowl Blessing. This is where the term “smudging” sage smoke comes from.For example, you may want to bring more peace into your home. So, while burning sage, you would want to keep that in mind and imagine the smoke lifting it up into reality. To make your own spray, put a few drops of sage essential oil into a glass spray bottle full of water. Be sure to shake it up each time you use it, as separation will occur.

A balm cleanser should be the first step in your skincare routine – think of it as a makeup remover with benefits. Most cleansing balms work best when applied to dry skin: simply take a small dollop, massage it into your face, and add water to loosen. Once you’re done, a balm is best removed using a damp flannel or muslin cloth, before following up with your favourite water-based cleanser and creams. Can I use a cleansing balm every day?

Sage (Salvia officinalis) is a salvia plant that is a part of the larger family of mint. There are different varieties of it but many people look towards white sage for cleansing purposes. Once you've paced through every part of your home, give thanks to the sage and snuff out the flame in the dirt, a bowl, or your sand bowl. Don't use water to extinguish it, as the moisture may cause you trouble when you try to light it in the future. This shows that the smoke of this plant has been used to heal and purify energy ever since it was first named. Energetic and Emotional Benefits You can probably source all of your herbs locally, many grocery stores will carry live herbs in the salad section. And of course there’s always the internet if you can’t find what you’re looking for. You may be surprised at how you feel after a smudging. The smoke can improve your mood and make you feel more relaxed and happy. And no, it’s not any kind of hallucinogenic, but you’ll probably want to open a window to keep your eyes from watering!
