✨ Ways to Work With Lavender

Lavender is wonderful in peace jars, dream sachets, sleep altars, protection charm bags, spell jars, spiritual-cleansing bowls, love rituals, grief work, meditation spaces, offerings, or rituals intended to release heavy energy.

It can also be placed near the bed as part of a peaceful-sleep intention.

⚠️ IMPORTANT BATH & SKIN NOTE

Your older packaging mentions adding Lavender to a salt bath or shower. Lavender itself is widely used in bath and cosmetic products; however, this particular product is being sold as a loose spiritual/altar herb and is not certified or packaged as cosmetic-grade material.

Because of that, I would not advertise this specific batch for bathing or direct skin use.

Topical lavender preparations can also cause allergic skin reactions in some people. 

For altar, spiritual, and craft use only.

🏠 How to Cleanse With Lavender

Open windows first. Begin at the rear of the home and move toward an exit, paying special attention to corners, doorways, mirrors, and thresholds.

After releasing unwanted or stagnant energy, consciously welcome in peace, love, protection, or another blessing.

For a completely smoke-free approach, use Lavender symbolically on an altar while working with bells, a singing bowl, prayer, music, visualization, or spoken intention.

🌿 Smoke Cleansing vs. Smudging

Smoke cleansing is the broad spiritual practice of clearing through botanical smoke.

Smudging refers to specific sacred ceremonies within certain Indigenous cultures and should not be treated as a universal synonym for burning herbs.

🔥 Fire, Smoke & Pet Safety

No burner, fireproof dish, charcoal, or cauldron is included. Burn only in equipment designed for burning botanicals or incense. Never leave burning herbs unattended.

🐦 Do not burn Lavender or other herbs around birds.

🐾 Keep other pets away from concentrated smoke and loose botanicals and ventilate the space well.

People with asthma or smoke sensitivity should consider a smoke-free spiritual method instead. 

Higher Healing Witchery Inc. is not responsible for burns, fire, respiratory exposure, animal exposure, property damage, injury, or improper use.

✨ All spiritual items are cleansed before shipment.
