Sage Advice:

“Sage Advice is a fun and practical approach to energetic smoke cleansing for your home and sacred space! Many plants and tree resins have properties that you can use and blend with others to create a beautiful smoke bath, potpourri, or for use in your spiritual observances. Learn how you can incorporate loose herbs and resins into your daily life to create beautiful and healing incense to enhance your energetic hygiene for your body, mind, and home. Sage Advice offers simple, everyday practices which people of all ages, cultures, and spiritual paths can adopt. Learn the reasons for energetic smudging, and have a greater understanding of how this practice can affect your home and personal space, and how to make it an easy, but important part of your journey on this beautiful planet we call home.”

Dawn Leith Dougherty lives in the rolling hills of rural North Carolina, USA in the northern Piedmont region with her husband Ed “Greybeard”, and SpookyKat, a tiny fuzzy black cat who somehow lost her tail. Together with her husband Ed, a woodworker and gifted flute maker, they are owners of Tree Of Life Designs, a true backyard enterprise and labor of love. They sell their wares on the internet, as well as occasional music and craft festivals hither and yon, and generally making happy mischief!

Dawn is a Reiki Master-Teacher in the Usui System Of Natural Healing, an Ordained Priest in The Order Of Melchizidek, an Animist and Pagan, an early modern traditional Witch, a writer, a vocalist, musician, and performer in rock bands and stage productions, an amateur horticulturist, former florist, garden writer and assistant manager of a garden center, and was once a featured zombie in a B horror movie. Her love of plants, herbs, and pursuit of a magickal life led her to seek energetic cleansing herbs and resins and study as much as possible about this compelling subject. Her and Ed love good incense, and as a result have developed their own brand of Tree Of Life Incense loose herbal blends.
