Large Sage Stick
SAGE SMUDGE STICK – LARGE
“As you smudge visualise that you are energetically clearing away all that no longer needs to be there”.
Are you holding onto a whole heap of crap that really no longer serves you or your family?
Are you moving into a new abode, new work space or just into new territory?
Are you having so much bad luck lately that you just want to curl up and hide under a rock?
Do you feel things going bump in the night or get that eerie feeling when you walk into a certain room?
Then my friends, you need CALIFORNIAN WHITE SAGE!
Not only will it clear up any negativity or unstuck energies in your space it will also give you the added benefits of purifying the air, reduces stress, becomes an antibacterial and removes any residual energies from previous occupants of your home. It could even get rid of the fighting kids and annoying husband (jokes) 😊
But be warned…. Once you use Californian White Sage it becomes an addiction, and the neighbours will be wondering what you are up to, as the strong aroma will have them thinking you are smoking some of that funny stuff! 😊 (no jokes)
The process in which you use your sage is called “smudging” and it also cleanses your aura and clears your space of any negativity, radiating lots of positive vibrations.
The process of burning dried sacred herbs often wrapped together in twine is one that has been practised by indigenous cultures for thousands of years. The smoke has a direct effect on reducing our stress response and has also been proven to contain antibacterial properties which keep infectious bacteria and viruses at bay. Since smudging is an ancient and ceremonial practice, it’s best to do so with awareness and in a mindful manner.
SUSTAINABLY SOURCED
Our sage smudge stick bundles are exclusively sourced from farms focused on sustainability & eco-friendly best practices. Upon harvest, the sage is dried and hand wrapped with cotton string. Embrace’s sage is an all-natural product with no additives, artificial scents or perfumes, no chemicals or preservatives and is 100% organic.
Notcommercially wild harvested, Californian white sage we use here at Embrace has been grown for us obviously in California. It is a plant that is native to the high desert ecosystems and its Latin name is Salvia apiana, although we doubt you will ever need to know that!
Smudging with sage is a Native American tradition to ward off negative energies and evil spirits and has been used throughout time in ceremonies, ritual and magick. Indigenous cultures all around the world have been burning sage for 1000’s of years.
Our powerful sage smudge stick comes in a great size 6”, which is long enough to burn more than once.
DID YOU KNOW: Because sage is a living plant it means that it also has a living spirit as well! This is why the spirit of sage is used to dedicate offerings to protection, blessings and clearings.
WAYS TO USE SAGE
Since sage is a very ancient and ceremonial practice we advise that you use it in a mindful manner receipting prayer or intentions as you do so.
Everybody will tell you how to sage in a different way but here at Embrace this is how we do it…
Cleansing a room, house, office, work space….
As you start, think about why you are smudging and set the intention of what you want to achieve. As you hold that intention you can light your sage the same way you would incense, and blow out the flame until your bundle is smouldering. Close all your windows and doors and make sure you turn your smoke alarm off whilst doing this. Just make sure to turn it back on once finished.
Start at the top of your front doorway and work in clockwise direction allowing the smoke from you sage into all corners of your home. It is always a good idea to use a feather or fan to help spread the smoke. The smoke will attach itself to negative energy and as it clears, it will take the negative energy with it.
You can allow the bundle to either burn out on its own or gently press it out in an abalone shell, the kitchen sink or outdoors. Always remember to never leave sage to burn on its own.
Once you have done your home why not try giving your whole body a big fat smudge. Better still, give everyone in the home one too! It is easy to do. Swirl the smudging wand gently around you or a mate from head to toe. Don’t forget under the soles of the feet and behind your neck where loads of negativity can enter our aura. Once this is done, your aura and energy field will be all clean.
You will feel that yourself and your room, home, office, work space will feel so much better and lighter.
Now you are all done you can open your windows and let the old air out and the fresh new positive energy in.
Cleansing a pet…
We are sure you will do everything possible to not burn your precious fur baby as the sparks can fly out and singe their coats. Start at their head, gently waft the smoke the way you do to yourself and move it back and forth, over their spine to their feet and tail. Watch their mood change now that they are all smudged!
Smoke Cleanse Your Crystals...
Perfect for cleansing crystals which cannot be submerged in water, or if you just don’t have time to take them to the ocean.
Cleansing Jewellery, Tarot Cards or an Object:
This is great to do if you are a second- hand shopper and love purchasing from the antique stores. Did you know that objects, especially jewellery can hold energy, good and bad? Well now that you do, you want to say goodbye to all the bad vibes and hello to all the good vibes coming in. This will also cement that piece as yours, removing any energy cords it may have to its previous owner.
It’s easy to do, just fan your piece through the smoke of the sage and if it’s a big piece of furniture for example just smudge all the way around it.
Home Décor:
Another home décor that is trending in the market right now is to style and place your bundle in its own unique spot in your home, especially if you have that rustic or country look happening. You can use it as just solely an ornamental piece to enhance your home décor.
Please note that because sage is a natural ingredient its appearance will vary from the images shown. Embrace Australia is highly committed to our customers, we stand behind our products and customers. Our ultimate goal is to satisfy each and every customer, from the moment you purchase our products right throughout its lifetime.

Please note during Covid 19 Pandemic: that whilst we do everything possible to make sure your order goes out in time, once it is in the hands of the couriers or Australia Post we have no control on how long it gets into your hands. With lockdowns, postal strikes, truck strikes, lack of staffing at the post centres and everyone and anyone doing online orders, the demand is high for deliveries, and they are taking much longer than expected. We recommend that you use our shipping terms as a guideline only during non-pandemic times to avoid any disappointment. We have been infomed that some deliveries, especially regional and rural areas can take up to three weeks! Sorry guys, please take this up with Australia Post and couriers, not us :(

At Embrace we want you to be satisfied with your purchase and your Embrace shopping experience overall. We understand that sometimes you may wish to return a product you have purchased from Embrace, so we have set out our policy regarding returns and refunds to assist you in this process.
Our returns policy includes the rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law (see below) and provides you with additional benefits in addition to those rights, because your satisfaction is important to us.
Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law:
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. Where a failure of a product does not amount to a major failure, Embrace is entitled to choose between providing you with a repair, replacement or other suitable remedy. Any cost incurred by you in returning the product(s) to Embrac will be borne by you.
To obtain compensation, you will need to provide Embrace documentary evidence of the loss or damage suffered, and documentary evidence that such loss or damage was a reasonably foreseeable consequence of a failure by Embrace to comply with a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law. Such evidence may include photographs, statutory declarations, receipts or reports (eg from your doctor), depending on the loss or damage.
1. Returning a Product:
Where: For all product returns please return either in person or by mail to:
Embrace
SYDNEY AUSTRALIA
Please retain your Receipt:
In order to obtain a refund, exchange or repair, you must have clear proof of purchase – typically, a receipt.
All refunds or exchanges must be notified to Embrace within 7 days of receiving your items.
How long do I have? Your rights to a remedy under the Australian Consumer Law are not limited by a defined time. However, the Australian Consumer Law does recognise that the relevant time period can vary from product to product, depending on factors such as the nature of the product and the price. Embrace adopts the same approach. As you can appreciate, the type of remedy we can offer you may also vary depending on how long it takes you to return the product to us. At Embrace we will always take a fair and reasonable approach.
2. Product Assessment:
Once we have established proof of purchase, as you can appreciate, we will need to assess the product to determine the nature of the issue and how we can help you, be it a refund, repair or exchange. In many situations, this will be a simple assessment. For example, if the product was mis-described or incorrectly labelled, or if the fault is relatively simple and safe to determine, we can assess it then and there in-store. Sometimes it may be dangerous or may not be possible to assess the product in-store due to the nature of the product (for example if it is an electrical, software or technology item). In these circumstances, we will send the product to the manufacturer or their repair agent to determine the issue and its resolution.
Our Courtesy Desk staff are happy to forward your product to the manufacturer or repair agent and liaise with them on your behalf. Whilst we will do our best to provide you with a timely resolution, it may take six weeks or more to complete the process due to the number of parties involved.
It may be more convenient for you to liaise with the manufacturer directly (which may be more time efficient). You certainly have that option. Our Courtesy Desk staff are happy to provide you with their relevant contact details to assist you. When we send your product to the manufacturer or their agent, we will ask them to assess the product and provide their assessment within a reasonable time frame.
The manufacturer will assess the product and determine whether:
• There is a minor fault: Where there is a minor fault and the product can be easily repaired, this will be carried out and the product returned to you within a reasonable time frame.
• There is a major fault: If the assessment is that the product has experienced a major fault you may choose to receive a refund, replacement, repair or returns card.
• The product has been damaged through abnormal use: Unfortunately Embrace cannot offer a refund or exchange where the product has sustained damage due to abnormal use, whether this is identified by Embrace , the manufacturer or their agent.
3. Have you changed your mind?:
If you have changed your mind, orders may be cancelled and a full refund or credit note given if you contact Embrace within 24 hours of placing your order and we have not yet processed it or shipped it. Please contact us to check the status of your order. Cancellations will only be accepted by email or phone.
4. Substitute Products:
Should Embrace be unable to supply to the exact specifications of the ordered product we shall advise you within 24 hours of the first working day from which you placed your order and provide a substitute. You are under no obligation to accept the substitute.
5. Refunds (if applicable)
We will offer a 3 day refund policy if the product you have received is not in accordance to what you have ordered or is damaged prior to opening the item. Items must be returned within 3 days in their original packaging, unused and undamaged. Prior authorisation must be obtained before returning any goods. Goods that are ordered incorrectly will not be refunded. No refunds will be given on custom designed products or any products damaged by yourself or other third parties associated with yourself.
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your original method of payment, within 3 days.
6. Late or missing refunds (if applicable)
