Smudging Simply
Not everyone had someone to teach them how to smudge. As simple as smudging is, it can be daunting. Not knowing how to smudge is a common worry that many folks face when coming into circle.
Smudging Simply will teach you everything you need to know to smudge confidently and respectfully in circle.

The Teachings
Throughout Smudging Simply, the teachings we will be sharing are not rooted in the protocols of a specific nation. Instead, we will be sharing common protocols that are practiced by Indigenous peoples across Turtle Island. We will also be sharing some of the variations that you can expect to see in different circles. If you're interested in learning more about our teachings, you can find more information at Our Culture.
During the Smudging Simply program, we will be using sage. This is the most common medicine that you'll encounter in circle and is the most accessible for the largest number of folks. Once you've completed the Smudging Simply program, you're welcome to join Smudging Simply - Sweetgrass and Smudging Simply - Cedar if you're interested in learning how to smudge with the other medicines.
