Sage & Sweetgrass Smudge Bundle

A 4-inch smudge bundle combining white sage with sweetgrass — the classical pairing of cleansing herb and blessing herb in many North American Indigenous traditions.

Details

• Approximately 4" bundle
• White sage with sweetgrass
• Hand-tied

Tradition

In many North American Indigenous smudging traditions, white sage and sweetgrass are paired sequentially: sage first to clear, sweetgrass after to bless and welcome. Combining them in a single bundle creates a complete smudge in one tool. Both are among the four sacred plants of many traditions (alongside cedar and tobacco).

How to use

Light the tip of the bundle, let it catch flame for a few seconds, then gently blow it out so the bundle smoulders and releases smoke.

Care & safety

Always smudge in a well-ventilated space. Place the smouldering bundle on a heat-safe surface — abalone shell, ceramic bowl, or stone — to catch ash and embers. Never leave a burning bundle unattended. Keep away from curtains, paper, pets, and anything flammable. To extinguish, gently press the lit end into sand, ash, or a stone surface.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place. Keep sealed if possible to preserve the aromatic oils.
