Sage smudging has become a viral trend. What's the truth behind the smoke? "Saging" has become common in movies, TV shows, social media, and cleansing rituals - people burning sage bundles in the hope of purifying space and clearing bad energy.

White sage (Salvia apiana) only occurs in southern California and northern Baja California, Mexico.

Saging the World spotlights the ecological and cultural issues intertwined with white sage, centering the voices of Native advocates who have long protected and cherished this plant.
