In times past, cedar smoke was used at the doorways of temples — it protected the space from negative and unwanted energy, preventing it from entering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday we use it primarily for regular energetic cleansing of our spaces. It is said to be an element of protection, because it not only cleanses a space but also prevents further intrusions of unwanted energies. We can also cleanse ourselves with cedar smoke. When we draw the smoke along our body, it creates an energetic barrier between our being and external negative influences. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Properties\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrganic cedar, sustainably grown in the Netherlands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe bundle measures approximately 11 cm in length.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe scent is similar to white sage, though slightly less intense. Ideal for those who find the scent of sage too strong. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch1 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInstructions for Use\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe gently and slowly light the cedar over a flame. We recommend lighting it over the flame of a candle. Direct lighting with a lighter is not recommended, as it introduces unpleasant odours into the process. We want the lighting process to feel natural, just as it was done thousands of years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen lighting cedar for the first time, we let a small flame form. It is important not to blow the flame out. The Indigenous peoples of the Americas believe that by blowing out the flame, you release and extinguish your own soul from your body. Instead, we turn the cedar vertically upward (so the flame is at the top), where it will naturally go out on its own and begin releasing a pleasant, deeply relaxing scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf the flame does not go out on its own, we wave it gently through the air to extinguish it with the breeze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpace Cleansing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith the smouldering cedar, we walk through the space and make slow, circular movements as we go. This extends the smouldering of the cedar bundle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe recommend holding a small bowl beneath the cedar with your other hand to catch any falling embers and prevent damage to objects in your space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf we want to cleanse the space of negative energy and protect it from further intrusions of unwanted energies, we carry the incense through every corner of the space and gently wrap the room in smoke. We make sure not to forget the corners of the space, where negative energy tends to particularly love to gather. We then place the cedar in a fireproof bowl and allow it to go out on its own. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNot to worry — the cedar will not burn all the way down, and you will be able to use it many more times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUniversal Protection Against Negative Energy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you feel that negative energy is regularly making its way into your life and personal space, light your cedar bundle. The gentle smoke will shield the space around you from all that is unwanted, and bring a more peaceful sense of ease to your everyday life on this planet. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Your Soul Time","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37372286337174,"sku":"CE11","price":11.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0510\/5424\/8086\/products\/your-soul-time-kadila-cedra-20409613222038.jpg?v=1689370177","url":"https:\/\/www.yoursoultime.hr\/en\/products\/cedar","provider":"Your Soul Time®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
