Cedar Smudge Stick

100% natural cedar smudge stick, non-toxic, handcrafted in Mexico. Its relaxing properties make it ideal for meditation and anti-stress therapies.

It has a warm, woody fragrance. Despite the green colour of its leaves, this incense burns without any problem as the leaves, being less dense than those of other incenses, allow it to light more quickly.

Its aroma is soft but deep.

Benefits: Cedar incense has been used since ancient times for healing rituals, purification and spiritual protection.

Its spiritual properties are also said to help us have peaceful thoughts and achieve the calm state we need to interpret messages from our inner being.

About smudging:

Smudge sticks or Smudge bundles are all-natural ceremonial incenses, traditionally burned in Native American rituals such as sweat lodges. Increasingly, also Western therapists and body workers are discovering the beneficial aspects of these herbs. Smudging is one of the means by which people around the globe are reconnecting with the power of Mother Nature. The use of plant and resin smoke possibly evolved out of the primordial campfires from distant caves. The ceremony of cleansing people, places and objects through smoke is continued to this day.

To apply the protective cleansing power of smudging, a bundle of leaves or resin is heated to produce smoke that is brushed over the person or object, often with a feather fan. Some plants are known to have specific healing properties while others have more generic powers.
