White sage and smudging, tea, smoking it, etc.?

does anyone know any information on white sage. i recently bought some for smudging but am now aware of other ways to use it. ive read you can make it as a tea, smoke it, mix it, etc. but what affect would this actually have? would it just be a calming effect? also is there anything behind the color of the strings used to tie smudge sticks?

Hi xx,



This isn't really directed at you, but at so many posts wanting to smoke this and that.



STOP IT WITH THE SMOKING, ALREADY!!



Smoke is not good for your lungs. You need healthy lungs to oxygenate your blood that is traveling on it's next stop into the chambers of your heart.



Your lungs are sensitive little fellas. That's why when anyone starts smoking, they almost always cough the first time.



Be kind to your sweet lungs...they only want to help you. So don't be rude to them by putting hot smoke in there. They don't like smoke, and your bronchial tube hairs don't like heat.



Thank you. I feel much better now.



Good luck and be well.
