Get Rid of Bad Vibes at Home With 13 Sage-Scented Products
Destressing is all about creating a sense of organization and calm, which is pretty much the opposite of what happens during the holiday madness. Instead of swearing off the season forever, try creating a positive mood in your space with sage. Depending on how much you want to buy into, sage is said to change the ionic composition of the air, which is a fancy way of saying it can reduce stress. So whether you want to burn it, smudge it, spritz it or eat it, these 13 options are perfect for clearing those post- shopping stress vibes. Or, if nothing else, they will make your home smell fantastic.
1. White Sage Smudge Stick ($12): Smudge sticks are known for cleansing and purifying the home, but they also just smell really good. The spicy sage is a great scent for the holiday season.
2. Cedar and Sage Candle ($28): Handmade and poured into whiskey glasses, each one of these candles is packed with essential oils and is completely natural, so you don’t have to worry about soot and carcinogens.
3. Juniper + Sage Atmosphere Mist ($24): This room spray rocks a fresh, woody scent that is ideal for mood calming, air purification and energetic clearing of spaces.
4. Caldrea Countertop Cleanser, Basil and Blue Sage ($7): Literally cleanse your space with this all-purpose counter cleaner that smells like something right out of an herb garden.
