Elevate Cochrane


“Experience the wide variety of wellness businesses Cochrane has to offer. This event aims to ELEVATE personal and community well-being!”

I’m excited to be part of Elevate again this year! I’ll be offering a workshop all about :

Smoke ~ Burning Herbs

Smudging, Saining, Moxa, Censers... 

People have been burning herbs around the world for many many years. It is often associated with purification, protection, and connection to the spirit world... 

There are practical uses for smoke as well. Supporting health in various ways. And even the "cleansing" or "protection" aspects may be related to the fact that smoke can often be antimicrobial and bug repellent, thus keeping things more sanitary.

 

In this session, we'll talk about various applications of smoke, both mystical and practical. Different traditions and where it’s important to be culturally sensitive. And a selection of herbs we can burn (you get to take some home too)!
