Attention: This is not the endangered white sage. 
 
Sage sticks, often made by bundling dried sage leaves, are traditionally used for cleansing, purification, and spiritual rituals. Their primary purpose is to clear negative energy from a person, space, or object. When burned, sage is believed to release aromatic smoke that helps to restore balance, promote healing, and create a sacred environment for meditation, prayer, or ceremony.
Used in many Indigenous and spiritual practices, sage sticks are also employed to:
Purify the air
Promote mental clarity
Enhance intuition
Create a peaceful and focused atmosphere
It's important to use sage sticks with respect and intention, especially given their cultural and spiritual significance in Native American traditions.
