Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I got a great chuckle out of "using a smudge stick is like licking yourself clean." After having learned to do immersion smudging, smudge sticks have never been the same!!! I have been living in someone else's home since April and have not been able to do this, but I am moving to my own place again, so yippee, I may begin! I will have to disengage the smoke alarm, however!
This little book is chock full of herbal recipes, blends and ways to use sacred smoke. I read it the first time around and now, revised, it is even better! This book is very detailed and complete!! I am so ready to dig my hibachi out!!!!! If not the hibachi - the fantastic cauldron I bought recently!
Amy writes with humor and charm. It's like being with her in her backyard sharing "holy smoke" together.
"Holy Smoke!" This book is a must have for anyone into smoke and smudge - fantastic job, Amy!
