Smudging with the smoke of white sage smudge sticks is ideal for cleansing negative energy, attracting positive energy and light when emotionally or spiritually tired or lacking motivation, ridding yourself of other people's negative emotional energy (stress, anger, anxiety, or bad intentions), and rejuvenation and renewal to start fresh after moving into a new home, after overcoming adversity, after an argument or after an illness. You can smudge your home, workplace, yoga studio, yourself, pets or loved ones.
