California White Sage is especially useful in clearing the atmosphere in and around your home or space. Removing negative energies and bringing balance to the area is a benefit of smudging. One of the best tools to use in your daily life, the Spirit of sage is dedicated to offering protection, blessings and clearing.
About smudging: Smudging is an ancient practice used by many walks of life that involves the burning of herbs for cleansing and purification. Smudging calls on the spirits of sacred plants to drive away negative energies, restore balance, offerings to spirit, aid in visions, dream work and more.
Smudging your home/space: Light the smudge wand and allow the smoke to drift (smudge) around your body or home. To clear the home, begin in a corner of your home and move from the outer part of a room and circling to the center. There are some who move counterclockwise and others only clockwise—do what resonates with you or as your beliefs/practice/ceremony dictates. Move to each corner of the room/home and give specific attention to window casings, doorways and behind doors. The heavier the smoke, the heavier the energy—smudge until the smoke burns clean and travels straight up.

Not sure where Tina gets her Dragon Blood Sage from, but I really love it. I’ve tried others, but no where is nice.
