Welcome to Eartharomas
We grow, dry and package a variety of extraordinary herbs on our property at Draper, North-West of Brisbane. These herbs all have a timeless tradition of use around the world for clearing and cleansing, healing and protecting homes, spaces, families and individuals. We harvest, dry and hand craft these herbs into smudge bundles & loose packets for smudging.
The beneficial effects of smudging are endless and we are enthusiastic to spread the practice as our way of making a much-needed positive difference in today's world. To this end we welcome wholesale enquiries and bulk purchases - for specific details you will need to
.
Typically the herbs are used for “smudging” - a technique of allowing the smoke from the smouldering herb - prepared as a smudge bundle - to permeate a space, infusing the area and those in it with the beneficial qualities of the plant.
There are many ways to do this - from the elaborate and ornate golden censers used in today's church rituals to the pinch of herbs cast on an open fire by shamans and medicine people throughout recorded history.
You can enjoy the benefits of smudging two ways:
use our individually hand-rolled smudge bundles which can be used over and over again (until they have been consumed)
burn loose dried herbs using charcoal blocks in a censer bowl
Please Note: As there is potential for damage or injury caused by fire, Eartharomas strongly recommends you approach smudging with a considerable amount of caution so that your experience remains the best it can be. Always ensure the smudge bundle or herbs are completely extinguished when smudging is complete.
The smudge bundles are easy to hold in the hand and bring the smoke to specific locations or vantage points. This is a technique much used by native North American people for centuries - generally known as “smudging”.
Using the loose herbs in a bowl is today's version of the ancient smudging technique used in cave-dwelling times; the same technique medicine men and women have used since before recorded history.
Eartharomas terracotta smudge snuffer (Sm’uffer) is glazed and decorated with the four directions: designed to quickly extinguish the smudge bundle without the need to use sand.
We supply two styles of earthen censer bowls. Both in natural earth colours (terracotta), glazed on the inside only, with Eartharomas and the four cardinal directions etched into a violet coloured band on the inside rim. Style one has a socket for a candle to light your bundle and can also hold sand to extinguish it. Style two is an open bowl to contain sand to place a burning charcoal disc, upon which cut sweetgrass etc. can smoulder or, to extinguish your bundles, or even just a place to store them between use.
