ASSORTED SMUDGE STICKS
All
smudge sticks are organically home grown by Michele, with the exception of Mphepo, which
is collected from the wild. When ready for harvest the herbs are reaped, formed into
smudge sticks and sun dried.
Kindly
note: availability of smudge sticks depends on the season and public demand.
Some plants, such as Lavender, have a higher yield as they have growth all year and are
big bountiful plants. Whereas other plants such as Thyme have a much lower yield as the
plant itself is small and only produces enough growth in summer for reaping.

HOW TO USE YOUR SMUDGE
STICK
Some smudge sticks give off a much heavier smoke such as Lavender & Mphepo –
these are particularly good for house cleansing as well as meditation. Other smudge sticks
such as Cape Snowbush & Thyme give off a delicate wispy smoke that is great for
meditation.
FOR HOUSE & SPACE
CLEARING
Light the tip of the smudge stick, let it flame for a minute or two whilst you place clear
intent as to that which you wish to achieve. Use over a bowl or plate to catch debris,
move around the area you wish to clear, visualizing the smoke breaking down the unseen web
like structure of psychic energy that has built up. Pay particular attention to corners,
cluttered areas, places that have not had much movement and where there are electrical
plugs and adaptors. Electrical outlets, stagnant corners and cluttered areas are where the
energy builds the most. Once you have completed the entire area, say a prayer or mantra
inviting in positive energies, whether it be Angelic, Protective, or Happiness etc.
Remember this is your space and you are the creator of that space so give the intent that
resonates with you.
MEDITATION
Light the tip of your smudge stick, have a fireproof container that you can safely place
the burning stick in. Hold it whilst it is burning for a few minutes & over the flame
place your intent i.e. I wish to connect to my spirit guides, guardian angel, find a
solution to a problem, clear my aura – whatever resonates with you. Once you have
made your intent clear place the burning stick into the container. Allow your mind to
still by watching the smoke, after a few minutes you should feel calm and focused, you can
either continue to watch the smoke which has an hypnotic effect or you may close you eyes
and breathe in the smoke, if you have asked for an auric cleanse visualize the smoke
filling your field and breaking down blockages, once you have completed your meditation
give thanks for the process knowing that whatever was necessary in line with your intent
has taken place.
AROUND THE HOME
As many of these smudge sticks have a pleasant aroma i.e. Rose Geranium, Lemon Geranium
& Khaki Bos they are nice to have around the home. You may hang them in a room, or use
in your cupboards & draws, or under your pillow when you sleep and even in the bath,
run the hot water first, place your stick in the water then add your cold and get in. The
stick can either remain in the water or your can remove. The heat of the bath water
releases the natural oils from the stick & you have an Aromatherapy bath.
