🫧🧖🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♂️🪄Smudging... Do or do not?


🫧🧖🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♂️🪄 Some soulful Sparkles...


I adore smudging—aka the ancient (and slightly witchy) art of setting bundles of herbs and good-smelling stuff on fire. My house instantly smells ooooh-so-delicious, like a mystical bakery had a baby with an apothecary. Sure, it gets a little smoky, but I crack a window, wave my hands around dramatically, and suddenly I feel cleaner—inside and out.

Now, is that smoke really bad energy packing its bags and fleeing the scene? Or is it just a bunch of molecules getting busy in a chemical reaction? Honestly, I think it all comes down to intention.

True story: once upon a very long few months, I had someone stay with me who brought all the bad mojo. I’m talking dark cloud over my house, my life, and even my Netflix recommendations. When she finally left, I grabbed some sage and struck a match. And let me tell you—this wasn’t a delicate little wisp of smoke. Nope. That sage went full-on bonfire mode. Big, swooshing, holy-crap flames leaping up like they were auditioning for Cirque du Soleil.

Slightly terrified, I flung open every window and declared (with all the authority of a fed-up high priestess), “If this is evil, you better get your nasty little ass outta here right now!” And I swear… the air shifted. The energy felt lighter. That was the day I thought, hmm… maybe there’s more to this sage thing than just incense-with-attitude.

So, smudging: do it, don’t do it, or just sit around pondering with your sage bundle in hand? As the wise and wrinkly Yoda once said: “Do. Or do not. There is no try.”

 💋✨Until next time... keep loving & living your best life!

🦋Wishing you Love, Light & Sparkles!

   🌸 Reflections from Mom’s Journals — Entry #19 🌸 Abundance flows when we love what we are doing. 🌸  Examine what I believe to be impossible… then change my beliefs. 🌸  Let my loving soul guide my behavior.  🌸  Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.  —Mark Twain 🌸  If your not doing what you love, you are wasting your time. ( widely attributed to Billy Joel ) 🌸  Forever is composed of NOWS! —Emily Dickenson 💭 Examine the Impossible  Examine what I believe to be impossible… then change my beliefs. Here’s a little trick I’ve learned: whenever something feels impossible , it’s usually just my brain doing its best dramatic performance, like it is auditioning for a soap opera. You know the type—“ Cue the violins, this project is clearly the end of me! ” But let’s be honest, most “impossible” things are just… big. Too big to swallow whole. So instead of brushing it off ( or chasing the ...

🌸 Mom's Journals, entry #5

🔥 Fan the Flames Reflections from My Mom’s Journals, post #5 “Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.” — Rumi I love this quote! And I love the little doodles in my mom’s journals , too. She was so creative, so artistic, and so full of joy. I miss her more than words can ever express. What I wouldn’t give for just one more day with her—sitting beside me in her physical form, or as she so playfully called it, her “ earth suit .” ✨ A Small Quote with Mighty Meaning I’m learning how to truly live out the wisdom packed into this small but powerful quote: “Seek those who fan your flames.” Why did I spend so much time with people who only wanted to dim my light—much less fan it? 💡 Choose the Right People Life is short. So incredibly precious. There’s no time to waste on people who don’t support your passion, your purpose, or your joy. 🔥 There’s no space for “ flame-blowers ” when you were born to burn bright. So light that sucker up—and keep it on high! ❤️ In Memory ...
