Description
Indigenous people have been utilizing medicinal and therapeutic plant extracts for thousands of years to heal body, mind, and spirit. Essential oils are highly concentrated extracts derived directly from the flower, root, stem, needle, or leaf of specific plants. Our cleansing, nature-identical sweetgrass oil is created using a mix of plants that yield more oil than this dry-climate grass.
The comforting, haystack aroma walks us out into a fragrant meadow... Sweetgrass is sometimes referred to as the 'hair' of Mother Earth and considered a sacred gift. After the grass is harvested, it is carefully braided; the three sections representing mind, body, and spirit. By braiding it, we bring those aspects of our being together, care for and strengthen them. When we smudge with sweetgrass, we are taught that the smoke prepares us for prayer because the scent is pleasing to the Creator. It is the northern direction of the medicine wheel.
