Use a sage smudge sick to cleanse your crystals and space of negative energy and feel refresh. One study done discovered that the use of medicinal smokes such as sage resulted in a 94 percent reduction in airborne bacteria.

 HOW TO:

2. Fan the smoke over your crystals and area you want to cleanse with clear intentions; envisioning the white smoke cleansing your crystal clean.
