This set brings together natures beauty, combining earth's 4 elements in your smudging ritual. The shell represents water, the smoke represents air, the smudge represents earth and upon lighting it represents fire. Dimensions- One abalone shell, approx 7.5-10cm. As a natural product each item varies. - One premium sage smudge, approx. 8 cm Material Californian white sage and abalone shell How to enjoy your sage smudgeSet an intention before you start, or, simply take a moment to feel centred. Open a few windows and doors to help any smoke and negative energy leave easily.Light your sage stick over your abalone shell until a small flame has caught. While holding your sage over the bowl lightly blow on the flame until it goes out. The sage will then smoke gently like incense. Remember that it’s the smoke that does the work and so the stick does not have to remain lit. Walk around your home clockwise, using your hands to waft the smoke into all areas of your space. Include all small spaces that collect negative energy like corners, windows and behind doors. It’s also good to open cupboards and wardrobes because they can also hold stagnant energy. You may need to relight the sage stick, simply relight it over your flameproof bowl and lightly blow it out as before. Then carry on where you left off.There are some who believe the sage stick should be left to smoulder rather than extinguish - this should only be done if you are able to stay with it while it burns. If not then extinguish it by lightly pressing the stick into earth, sand or into your fireproof dish. Never leave a lit sage stick unattended.Smudging your home can be done whenever you like, there’s no need to wait for a certain day or moon cycle - you can use it daily but weekly or monthly is just fine too. It is ideal for clearing the air on an energetic level, it also has a few other practical uses. It releases negative ions that fight against things like dust and pollution. Research has also shown that it can clear 94% of bacteria (for up to 24hrs) which is why it’s great to use when you’ve not been feeling well. Environmental notes Californian white sage smudge is environmentally and sustainably collected in California. The abalone shell is farmed in South Africa & Mexico and are not caught in the wild. This means natural habitat is not destroyed and the supply is sustainable.
