Smudging Is A Stress Management Tool |
|
|
|
Smudging has emerged from the US in recent years. It is a harmless and
charming way, which can prove beneficial in stress management. It is rooted in a Native American Ceremony in
which herbs and incense are burnt to produce smoke to cleanse oneself
and the surroundings.
It believes that smell connects us to the
instinctual part of the brain and certain scents can change our energies
and induce emotions.
For eg. Sage is a herb
which has the power to drive away negative energies. Cedar, juniper and
pinon pine provide you balance and harmony. You can waft the
sweet-smelling smoke around yourself and your home with a feather and
feel the results.
It has no side-effects and does not require any
professional guidance. You just need to be aware of the smell to suit
your condition. It gives peace of mind and hence helps to combat stress.
