Tribal White Sage & Lavender Incense Sticks

Tribal Soul White Sage & Lavender Incense Sticks are great to use before or during a Yoga class, or in your home or office.

White Sage (Salvia apiana) is a plant from the mint family, used as incense. For centuries, the native Indians of North America have been initiating their purification ceremonies and healing sessions by burning dry leaves bundled into smudge sticks. White Sage is considered sacred and is believed to cleanse a space of any evil spirits or negative energies that may be present. Its smoke is also used to bless, cleanse and heal the person or object being smudged. White sage has a highly aromatic and resinous scent that enables a greater capacity of concentration and greater ease of relaxation. Lavender, well known for its medicinal qualities as well as its powers of protection and cleansing, symbolizes purity and cleanliness. It works to soothe and calm people by restoring emotional balance. It also opens the heart chakra and attracts loving energy. Fresh earthly White Sage and sweet herbaceous Lavender combine in these sticks for a highly aromatic experience, creating a peaceful, harmonious atmosphere and enabling greater ease of relaxation.

Place incense away from flammable materials. Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
