Smudge away the heavy negative energies that do not belong to you and invite in love, peace, and calm. Smudging is a powerful cleansing technique from the Native American tradition that is a simple yet powerful ritual to cleanse your self, and home of negative energy. Also, don’t forget to smudge your crystals, and gemstone jewelry on a regular basis.
Smudging calls on the spirits of sacred plants to drive away negative energies and put you back into a state of balance, peace and harmony.
THE SMUDGE BLEND:
The Love Blend Ingredients:
Sage: For Clearing and Protection. Transforms energy and brings positive change.
Lavender: For Protection and Love. Lavender brings a positive energy, opens the heart chakra and calms the mind.
Rose: For Love and Passion. Transforms negative energy to loving energy.
THE SMUDGING RITUAL:
- Close your eyes and center yourself by taking a few long deep breaths. Imagine roots connecting deep down into the earth grounding yourself.
- Now hold an intention to clear away negative, heavy energy and invite in love, and peace.
- Place a few pinches of the Love is All You Need Smudge Blend into the abalone shell. Light the smudge and then gently blow out the flame and allow the smoke to bathe your body. Start from your head and work down to your feet wafting the smoke on your body with your hand or a feather. If you are cleansing a space allow the smoke to flow into the space. Fan it into corners of the room with your hands or a feather. This is where stagnant, heavy energy is often trapped.
- As you smudge visualize yourself being surrounded by gentle, pure, and loving energy. Inhale positive energy and exhale negative energy.
