Which of these side effects of smudging have you heard about or experienced before?

[@Butterfly_-vj1qp]

Hi Mallory… New subscriber here 🙋🏻‍♀️ I feel heat releasing from my body not during smudging, But after smudging… Then, I always feel Calm and Peaceful and I love 💕 that…

[@meganmyerski4250]

I stopped smudging a few years ago (just kinda lost myself) finally got back to myself this morning. My head feels lighter while my shoulders an chest feel relaxed

[@poeticwishes5791]

Any idea while I would have stomach pain after smudging?

[@comfycozyfaerie]

Got lightheaded everytime.....and very relaxed with "weird" feelings

[@1peanut]

I saged my house last night and woke up outside.

[@jeannettegervais379]

We had never smudged before, we started about 1 year ago. We did it because my grandchildren were complaining of negative spirits visiting them at night. We smudged not only ourselves, but the whole house, and it left us all with a beautiful feeling of calm. The children said they no longer had those visitors! My autistic granddaughter says she loves smudging, it makes her feel calm and comfortable. We don't smudge often enough, but getting better at it. We especially smudge when there's a lot of negativity in the house. Thank you for your videos!!

[@mctrigga9792]

All you need is Jesus christ to get rid of those evil spirits (demons). Burning sage is witchcraft, you're going to summon even more demons into yours and your grandchild's life. Think of it as drinking alcohol or eating a lot of junk food, at first, it's pleasurable, then it goes downhill from there.

[@julesbeck7603]

What words did you say while smudging

[@EpilepsyWarrior82]

Used sage for the first time today. I had an overwhelming sense of calm and felt like I could take a deep breath for the first time in months! I felt the tightness leave my body and it was pure relief in body and mind. Pure focus of releasing all negative energy and bringing love and light into my home.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

That sounds wonderful to hear, Tricia. It's great that you were able to experience the benefits of sage and feel a sense of calm and relief in both body and mind. 🧡🪶

[@MayaShantiSoulpeace]

I smudge in the mornings. I alter between sage, palo santo and Sandalwood. I always open the Window while praying to the Creator, Mother Earth and the four direktions sending my gratitude. It's a good way to start the day. Thank you for posting, Mallory. 🙏🌿💕

[@MalloryRoseCo]

I hear you, Maya! It sure is a great way to start your day! Thank you so much for sharing! 🧡😊

[@sylviesas2992]

great tips ! So thorough! A lot of info I had not heard of before! Thank you!

[@skane48180]

First time smudging got dizzy, heighten awareness, and exhausted physically. I salted the doors, windows, and repeated process in the house

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Thank you for sharing your experience, Steven! 🙏🏽

[@GrantusM]

Thank you for sharing this sacred practice, Mallory. I've smudged for years, and I've felt a few of these after-effects. Most of the time, I feel clean and refreshed, and a bit lightheaded, but in a good way.

[@mercollimojica2573]

I decided to smudge because my girlfriend is very sensitive with energies and entities and was feeling something on the stairs of our apartment, we've also had some bits and pieces of paranormal experience happening to us around the place so I took the reins and started the smudge. Almost everything you described in the video I'm still feeling, so I thank you so much cause I thought it to be something else😅

[@MalloryRoseCo]

You're welcome! I hope smudging helped you out with what's going on in your apartment. 🙏🏽

[@adampetrie621]

I smudge every morning and sometimes pending on my day, I'll even smudge in the evening. The Sage contains camphor which helps with anxiety depression, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and helps lift mucus from your lungs and aids in breathing.. I personally have only experienced positive effects after smudging. It truely does create a good frame of mind and heart, and really gets you prepared to face society and ALL it's experiences.. There is one thing I would like to know, and that is the use of tobacco in a smudge.. Now can I use store bought tobacco, or can I use the leaves from a tobacco tree (Solanum Mauritania). It grows wild where I live.. You see I'm First nation Turtle Islander that has lived his entire life down under here in Australia, I'm a strong Allie of the First nations people of this land but want to practice my culture as well.. So if any one can help me out with my qst, I'd surely appreciate it. If we follow the path of peace love and harmony, we'll all end up in unity..✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Thank you so much for adding all the benefits of smudging with sage, Adam! It's awesome that you want to stay connected to our culture even if you live far from Turtle Island 😁 We have some videos about the uses of tobacco. You can check it our in these links - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eovdl4J8n5uSmpI & kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4rZfIl7pL5rq5I

[@vidfan1973]

Hello Mallory, thank you for our videos. They're very educational & helpful. The 1 side effect I've noticed is deep calmness and concentration during the work day as I smudge in the morning. The energy of my place feels very light. Indeed, in the 3 months I started practicing I became deeply intrigued. As I write this, my list of weekly smudges has grown to: sage, sage+cedar, sage+lavendar, sage+rose, palo santo, juniper, and rosemary. I'm about to add Eucalyptus. Keep this fantastic content coming because people like me are benefitting from it.

[@lisan.2880]

Anyone else get chills when smudging? Happens to me all the time.

[@ceolapage6706]

When I’m smudging my space I never get overheated. I’m always relaxed and comfortable. I always have a soothing calm. I have great relaxing energy. As well as a positive clear mind. I’m Never lightheaded or dizzy. I’m never emotionally. My energy and mindset is always positive. Great video! Thanks so much for sharing dear! 😊

[@sagesemadeni4024]

Side effects may include: A sense of calm and composure Heightened senses Smelling pleasant Repelling biting insects Being warm Burn scars (if youre stupid. Been there...) Dealing with psychological trauma A healthy sense of reality Contact your therapist if you experience any of these symptoms. They'll tell you youre fine.

[@thomask9272]

Smudging kind of gives me a headache, so I find it preferable to leave it on a table and sit a ways away. That being said, I got sick recently, and my sister told me that white sage kills some germs, so I opened my bedroom window and burnt more sage than I usually do. I let the sage burn out, then I closed the door and went to the living room. An hour later, the air was nice and clear. I slept really well that night.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

I'm so glad to hear about your positive experience smudging with sage, Thomas! Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏽

[@BrianTownsendFundy]

If I’m at a time when my allergies are acting up then the smoke of smudging irritates my nose and eyes. Basically, I’m allergic to smoke. At other times it’s ok. I generally feel relaxed and inspired after smudging. Smudging isn’t a regular practice for me. It’s more like a special occasion. The only difficulty I have sometimes had during smudging is not being able to keep the sage burning long enough. It keeps going out right after I light it. Taking time beforehand to quiet my mind and solidify my intentions makes my smudging feel more satisfying. I’ve never experienced any weirdness or discomfort from smudging. It always feels very positive. I think that bringing each step of the smudging into conscious awareness and thinking about its meaning, rather than just going through the steps without thinking, greatly enhances the experience.

[@Little-kitty-1013]

I usually feel happy, calm and more positive. And see more situations in a positive light! When I am out and about snd see or heard negative things I can smell the sage and it redirects my thoughts to positive.

Hi, I smudged my house yesterday for the first time. During the process I felt a deep sense of calm but once done, I felt so nauseous and sick that I could eat and went to sleep. I slept 10hours straight which is very unlike me as I normal sleep about 6hours. I’ve woken up today feeling still very exhausted & like I have cotton wool in my head. Gonna drink lots of fluids and hopefully it will pass.

[@goldbrick2563]

Did it pass?

[@ladytess23]

Thank you for this and all of your videos. I am a new subscriber and I'm looking forward to learning more about smudging.

[@elizabethingram9784]

Sage works so well. With prayer and good intentions… after the first use it can clear layers of “negativity” away.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

we love hearing from you. Stay tuned for more exciting content coming your way!

[@sletourneau3]

So, my roommate is a mortician so I smudge daily. We both feel better after, clearer, lighter. She's had a cold and I physically coated her and she felt better. Sage is good medicine. 👍

[@MalloryRoseCo]

It sure is a very good medicine. Thank you so much for sharing, Sonja! 🧡🙏🏽

[@gredhawk]

Oki Mallory - There is a special place your Spirit carries you to when you smudge. It simply lifts you up and puts a smile where your heart is and you know that Creator is taking care of you. I don't partake of church service lately as I get all I need by smudgeing and praying to the 7 directions. I used to get the same feeling when I attended Episcopal church and the priest would use frankensence smudge much the same way we do when we are home or outside using sage. It's a special place in the Spirit world that you go to as long as your not to worried about what's coming next in your life... Waatowa Piistoto

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Beautiful explanation, Grant! It sure feels like you're in a special place when you smudge. Thank you so much for your comment! 😊

[@patriciadecoteau9181]

I just smudged and have done it for a few years now.. however I just felt very nauseous, migraine and had random thoughts about what I have been manifesting lately.. definitely opened up my empath abilities.. just wanted to see if this was normal.. thank you for your videos =)

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Thanks for sharing your experience, Patricia! It's totally normal to have different sensations during and after smudging. Feeling nauseous, having a migraine, and having random thoughts can happen as your energy shifts and releases. Sending you good vibes for continued growth! 🙏🏽🧡

[@mctrigga9792]

Those are demons entering your body.

[@ladylaynefairchild8146]

I was surprised migraine wasn’t on the list. I’ve smudged with sage before and was fine but lately I’m getting migraines. So severe my migraine meds aren’t helping at all. Is there anyway this has a spiritual basis and not just that the smoke is causing migraines? I burn palm santo with no problem so this is quite confusing.

[@jamiecarr4438]

First time smudging today, and I got the most happy feeling overcoming me as almost excited, very intrigued as well

[@MalloryRoseCo]

That's wonderful to hear! Smudging can have a positive and uplifting effect on many people. If you continue to feel intrigued and excited about exploring smudging, you might find it to be a beneficial practice for your well-being. Just remember to approach it with respect and an open heart. 🧡

[@amandaball4536]

First time smudging. Definitely a little light headed. I have been emotional since the day before yesterday, but a bit calmer since smudging

[@charmaccents6278]

Very new to smudging. I have felt a sense of calm afterwards some of the time. I am trying to smudge my son daily as he's had a lot of problems. We recently found out that part of our house and land has very angry Native spirits because the poor things had been massacred here. My son is part Native and the spirits asked him to make a mural and smudge the outdoor areas with sage and palo santo. My son doesn't believe in any of this sadly, yet the spirits are trying to use him as a conduit for what they want (which we are more than willing to give to them) and also trying to communicate through him and he's not having it. It is heartbreaking what the Natives have gone though and we will do all that they've asked us to do even though my son is an unwilling participant.

[@lisalangley1643]

I feel smudging with a group is more Spiritual than when I smudge alone. I would like that feeling when smudging alone.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

I hear you, Lisa! I feel like when you smudge with family and community members who you’re close with it’s SO emotional! Do you think this can be replicated in a virtual group smudge?

I smudge often and whenever I do readings for people. I have little bowls out all the time. Also a mixture of sweetheart and sage. I find that sage relaxes me completely and makes me feel calm. I have never had a reaction to save even though I have reactions to other events and smoke.

Sage also makes me feel relaxed and calm! Thank you so much for sharing, Wendy! 🙏🏽🧡

Thank you so much, I literally just smudged my house and I was a little nervous, lightheaded and nauseous. I opened all the doors and windows and are still open right now. Wow, I had to look up info cause I was feeling all of this without explanation 😊 All is chill tbh.

You're very welcome, Percy! I'm glad this video was able to explain what you felt. 😁

I just got done smudging my home and felt most of this. I usually smudge my aura and home every once in a while to attract good energy. I have been having some issues with my legs lately and walking plus lower back pain. So I figured smudging myself would help. Yep feeling some of these sensations. I have all the windows open to air out my home right now.

I am new to sumudging. I have done it a few times. Every time before the smudge bundle burns for just a little while then its out. I smudge yesterday and the entire bundle burned. The smoke has gotten stronger and stronger like it's still burning, but it is completely gone. This is the last room I smudged, I left the smudge to burn out in this room, and it's the room I left the window open in. It is now the next day the smoke is even stronger. Does this mean anything?

[@goldbrick2563]

Has it dissipated yet?

[@kaitlyns9756]

I ordered a smudging kit and it came in the mail recently. I just did it for the first time today, and I’m honestly not sure if I did it right. I said a prayer that I wrote down when I started and when I ended it and during the entire thing, I would quietly chant to myself “erase all negativity and negative thoughts” and I would keep that mindset. I couldn’t really keep doors or windows open due to all the dogs and cats I have (they would probably try to pry the windows open or run out the door), so I just went with opening the blinds and/or curtains and we have a foyer, so the door wasn’t open, but you could atleast see outside because the door is a tinted glass door. Like I said, I have no clue if I did it right and I’d honestly like to talk with someone to see if I could do it better. I know that I can’t expect results immediately but ik that I’ve gained a little headache since the smudging (but that could be because maybe I wasn’t swaying the feather in the right way with the smoke…. I’m not too sure on anything to be honest 😅😭

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Thank you for sharing your smudging experience with us, Kaitlyn! Not having any doors and windows open is okay too. We do have tons of video about smudging that can help you! Don't worry about not getting it right the first time. I'm sure with time and smudging regularly, you'll get it in no time! 🧡🪶

[@joxylop]

Hey! Just stopping by to tell you that any sort of smoke could be highly irritating to pets and mess up their noses and lungs. So you gotta be careful to actually have the house well ventilated when smudging around pets. I, myself have a rabbit and I usually put him in a room not yet smudged. I smudge a room, open all the windows to clear the smoke out, wait a bit, move the rabbit there and then move on to the next room. I don't know if this helps you with the pups and cats, but thought I should share! 😅

[@tashanichols3768]

I just started smudging sage tonight for the first time and the side affect i started feeling was not one you had mentioned. My side effect was headache. I had only been burning it for 5 minutes and had to put it out. And when it was lit, It didn't really want to stay lit for some reason. Not a good first impression with this sage, thats for sure. Maybe its because im not burning it for the right intent? I wanted to burn Sage to get negative energy out of my house. I am battling being married to a man with Narcissist Personality and because of this i need some calmness in my home NOW! I want to try burning the sage again another time but i just don't know if I'm doing anything wrong? But i especially don't wanna keep getting headaches either.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

I'm sorry to hear that your first experience with smudging sage was unpleasant. Headaches can sometimes be a side effect of burning sage, especially if you are sensitive to smoke. Maybe you can try burning only a few leaves of your sage at a time to minimize the smoke from your smudge. You can also try smudging in a well ventilated area. Hope this helps! 😊

I had someone enter my home on Memorial Day weekend while I was away and I felt violated. So, for the fourth time I’ve ever done it, I decided to smudge. And it made me feel extremely tired, nauseous and ill. I did open three windows for cross ventilation but it was still very smoky in the house. I left to run a few errands and had to return home because I felt so bad. The sage sticks are probably three years old now and I blew on them to keep them lit. I just read in the comments that that is a “no no.” Why? And could that be why I felt ill and still do as I’m typing this? It’s been about three hours now. I frankly can’t stand the smell of the smoke. And I love a campfire. Not sure what that’s about?? Is there a better alternative? Also, can incense work? If so, what kind? Thank you!

I am a beginner to smudging and have done it only 2-3 times. Every time smudge I feel really bad and tired for a couple of hours. Should keep smudging or should I stop?

[@user-fi5xq3pp5z]

felt light headed during and also after performed sage for 5-6 hours. only in one room. i think its bad airflow and maybe my body dont like the smoke from sage.

I have never smudged before, but I do have some sage that my son gave me.. how long do you usually smudge? does the sage go out on its own? I am curious to try it..

I'm 78 & a lifelong asthmatic. Any form of smoke I've ever experienced has caused bronchial constriction. Though part Cherokee, I'm very leery of smudging. You are very young. Have you known of others with respiratory difficulties in response to smudging?

[@MalloryRoseCo]

Thank you for reaching out, Linda! Unfortunately, I don't know anyone with respiratory difficulties. Have you considered smudging outdoors?

[@lindahansen9413]

How many sage diffrents arts are there ? And is they giving same effects/sideeffect

[@purplepaws9273]

I tried it for the first time. woke up feeling a hangover a bit, maybe i let it burn too long or could be the affects of the sage?

[@fourtywater77]

I've gotten really good sleep with smudge sticks.

[@MalloryRoseCo]

That's great! I'm so happy to hear that, Jason! 😊

I’ve smudged before but never with any real focus on my intent & nothing ever really happened. I’ve been told multiple times, by multiple people over the years that I’m an empath, “powerful”, have strong abilities/intuition, & someone called me the Queen of Witches (I was just sitting there, I swear I didn’t do anything “witchy” 😂). Lately, I’ve decided to start focusing my energies & intentions more to try & connect with this side of myself that I apparently have. When I smudged today I got a headache toward the end & have been SOOO sleepy. Are these normal side effects?

[@angelbaby3838]

Also, when I was smudging my parent’s house with my mom & smudging my home, I had random words pop into my head in specific rooms (resentment at my parent’s & misery in mine). I banished those emotions immediately when they popped into my head. Is this normal?

[@1peanut]

I saged my house last night and woke up outside.

[@vacaspen4002]

Thank you better late than never

[@angelaglaski1676]

[@Mimi-ln1pm]

[@sailormoongypsy]

[@happy_dogfizzygameschannel8792]

Can you wash the abolone shell after burning?

[@judeashby1727]

First time smudger here. About two minutes in, my stomach felt like it was flipping then I got immediate violent diarrhoea. Was this a coincidence? Does this happen naturally? Should I take it personally as a deeper spiritual issue? Help!

[@MissTia777]

😂😂😂 Just use incense! Smudging smoke is too strong for you!

[@2009jadeorchid]
