We want to share with you some alternatives to smudging in place of over-harvested White Sage.
Cleansing your space, your energy field and your spiritual tools is easy to do with other powerful herbs, resins and essential oils.
Always do some research to make sure these are safe to use within your home and remember that inhaling lots of smoke is never healthy for people or pets, so go easy. Also make sure you aren’t allergic to any of these before using them.
Herbs:
Mugwort
Cedar
Lavender
Rosemary
Juniper
Yerba Santa
Pine Needles
Black Sage
Desert Sage
Blue Sage
Chaparral
Resins:
Dragon’s Blood
Frankincense
Copal
Myrrh
Woods:

Essential Oils can be added to a spray bottle with spring water to create a very powerful cleansing mist:

Sage (culinary)
Lavender
Peppermint
Cedar
Eucalyptus
Fir Needle
These are just a few ideas, experiment to see what works best for you. Brightest Blessings
