Sage

Originating from the American West, White sage (Salvia apiana) may also be known as sacred sage. It is an evergreen perennial native to the Southwestern United States. This potent herb has been in use for centuries by Native Americans in rituals of cleansing and healing. Modern people continue this tradition today by holding their own sage smudging ceremonies and even use the plant to cleanse their homes. Burn white sage to clear energy and restore balance, for protection and spiritual purification. Each smudge stick measures approximately 8 inches long and 2 inches wide.
