I am convinced that gathering the people who mean the most to you is important, but it can consume a lot of energy. Smudging rituals are traditionally a ceremony for cleansing the soul of negative energy. Hand & Land (next door to Billie’s Grocery on Gillham) offers smudge bowls that are hand thrown. This means they are as unique as your anxiety about Aunt Clara’s judgements, or your sibling’s inability to be less than 45 minutes late.
