The Power of Smudging: Smudging Techniques

Many cultures still employ the ancient practice of smudging to cleanse and bless the energy of people and their surroundings.
Sage can be used. Sage comes in a wide range of kinds, any of which can be used; however, white sage is the most popular. Negative energy can be cleared and removed using sage smoke.
If you wish to smudge yourself or your house, you can either purchase loose sage leaves or a smudge stick, which is simply dried sage leaves packed together. Before you begin, have a bowl made of ceramic or clay ready. This is where you lay the lit smudge stick, and you can use it to properly put it out when you’re done.
Smudging is a good practice to perform for yourself and in your home as core energetic hygiene. After having guests, it’s a good idea to do this to rid the house of their energy and any possible problems they may have brought with them. It’s also a good idea to do this during and after an illness or a fight to clear the house of any remaining bad vibes.
