How to Use:
1. Prepare the sweetgrass: Before use, you should prepare the sweetgrass by untying the ends and fluffing it up a bit. Some people like to lightly mist the sweetgrass with water to create a bit of humidity.
2. Light the sweetgrass: Light one end of the sweetgrass bundle, and let it burn for a few seconds, then blow out the flame. Sweetgrass is traditionally burned in a special bowl or abalone shell, and the smoke is wafted over the person, place, or object being blessed.
3. Offer prayers: While the sweetgrass is burning, offer prayers or intentions for yourself, loved ones, or the world. You can also use this time to meditate or reflect on positive affirmations.
4.Extinguish the sweetgrass: When you're finished with the sweetgrass, extinguish it by gently pressing the smoldering end against a fireproof surface or placing it in a dish of sand.
