The use of dried herbs and resin for smudging is an Indigenous practice. The shamans use it in their fires as a ritual of calling upon ancestral spirits.  Conflict, anger, illness or evil is absorbed by the smoke and cleansed from the energy field of a person or space. 

Smudging your sacred space is like receiving an energetic shower or a deep metaphysical cleansing.  The smoke actually changes the ionic composition of the air, and can have a direct effect on reducing any negativity that has been left behind.
