Smudging is a sacred tradition, it’s history tracing back centuries and spanning a myriad of different cultures. Sage is a holy plant that has been used for smudging to cleanse and purify. Negative energies get trapped in the smoke and then ascend to the heavens, leaving purified space suitable for healing & positive energies to emerge. Our ancestors, without the benefit of modern science, understood that Sage has physical healing properties as well, and it has now been proven to have antibacterial properties that will cleanse your physical space as well as your metaphysical. 

A member of the mint family, white sage is an aromatic evergreen shrub with tall woody stems and tiny white flowers that are a favourite food of bees. Salvia apiana is found wild in a specialized habitat consisting of sunny, arid slopes located in southern California and northwestern Mexico. Our white sage is always consciously collected with permission from private lands located in Baja, California.

Due to increased popularity, pressures from human development, and changing climate conditions, Salvia apiana is at risk for overharvest and listed on the Untied Plant Savers “To Watch” list. Aware of these pressures on wild populations, we are dedicated to offering sustainably & organically cultivated white sage in an effort to preserve this respected botanical for future generations and increase ecological resiliency. 

White sage has been an important botanical for many indigenous cultures. For centuries, the plant was used in a variety of traditional methods including for its healthful qualities as well as in ceremonial use. Hilltribe Ontario recognizes the long-established cultural and spiritual significance white sage holds for many tribes and the stewardship that has ensued for generations.

Also known as California white sage and greasewood, many prominent herbalists have suggested that enthusiasts consider growing their own white sage. This is a wonderful way to form a relationship with the plant while also growing your own personal supply!

A few alternatives to smudging with White Sage are;

• Black sage
• Garden sage
• Wormwood
• Cedar
• Pine
• Holy basil
• Mints
• Rosemary
• Lemon balm
• Juniper

Palo Santo is another of our favorite energy cleansing tools. Palo Santo means “holy wood” in Spanish. This sacred wood comes from the Palo Santo trees of South America. When it’s burned, the smoke is believed to provide medicinal and therapeutic healing energy. Its calming and relaxing aroma is incredible, standing among the greatest of the world’s fragrant woods. Because of the extraordinary blessings it bestows upon those who have the good fortune to use it, this wood has touched the hearts and minds of countless people.

Though every country has its botanical treasures, palo santo stands out as being especially awe-inducing. The scent it casts off will immediately force you into a mindful state of being, erasing everything else from your purview. Inhale the burnt citrus scent of palo santo to feel yourself cleansed of the stress or negativity weighing down your chest. Allow its aroma to uplift your spirit.  Due to the numerous healing powers of palo santo, the sacred wood has for centuries served as a panacea in remote areas of South America. Its use in sacred rituals has lead to palo santo becoming an essential tool for all Shamans.

Palo santo can also be a friend to your crystals, helping to purify their energy when you first receive them, and periodically when their energy begins to feel heavy. To use its healing energy on your crystals, begin by lighting the palo santo stick, and waiting for its flame to die out. Holding the palo santo stick in one hand, use your other hand to raise your crystal and immerse it into the smoke of the palo santo. Depending on how many crystals you are cleansing, you may have to relight the stick a few times. Unlike sage, which continues to burn, palo santo is a bit more reluctant to hold a flame. If you can’t lift your crystal, your hand or a feather to waft the medicinal smoke onto the stone.  

HOW TO USE YOUR PALO SANTO WOOD:

Light your Palo Santo stick. Let the stick catch fire, and allow it to burn for about 30 seconds. Then gently blow it out. If needed, you can blow on the embers to keep the smoke going throughout your cleansing process. Say aloud or silently, “I ask that the plant spirit of Palo Santo please bring blessings into the space.” To bless yourself, the space, or crystals, simply allow the smoke and rich smell of the Palo Santo to fill the room. To fill your space with blessings, start at the front door and walk clockwise through it with your Palo Santo. When finished, place the Palo Santo stick in a fireproof container. The glow at the end of the stick will eventually go out on its own.

Sweetgrass is one of the four plants (tobacco, sage, red cedar and sweetgrass) considered as sacred to First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. It is known for its sweet scent, which is intensified when it is moistened or burned. Sweetgrass has slightly different significance in different communities. To the Anishnaabe First Nation (Woodland Indians), it is believed to be the sacred hair of O’gushnan, Mother Earth, and is often braided; the three sections representing mind, body, and soul. Some First Nations believe the three sections of the braid represent love, kindness and honesty.

Sweetgrass is used in smudges, healing or talking circles because it has a healing effect as its smoke is believed to purify thoughts, the environment and to eliminate bad or negative thoughts.

A sacred plant of Native America which is used in peace and healing rituals. Burning Sweet Grass is said to purify and clear objects, spaces and people. Our sweetgrass is picked, dried and braided by Barry Heise, a proud member of a local native band.

The abalone shell with its beautiful iridescent interior has been used for centuries for burning smudge. When not in use it also makes a natural decorative accent piece. Abalone Shell that is used to hold your smouldering sage leaves. Abalone shells (aka Paua or Mother of Pearl) are often used in smudging rituals to hold the burning sage, but mainly because they are a beautiful gift straight from Mother Earth’s ocean. These beautiful, iridescent shells hold the energy of the ocean and bring a strong calming and healing energy, allowing you to remain connected to the sea - even when you are landlocked. Including abalone shells in your smudging rituals means you are incorporating all four of the earth’s elements: the shell (WATER), the smoke (AIR), the unlit herbs (EARTH), and the lit herbs (FIRE). By incorporating all of these elements into your smudging ritual, you’re inviting Mother Earth (or Mama Gaia) to be the focus of your ceremony. It is here, in the space created by Her, that transformations and manifestations have room to occur.

To cleanse using Sage, start by opening all doors and windows. Burn the stick or small pile of loose leaves in an abalone shell or heat proof receptacle.
