X̱peyʼ (Cedar) Bundle

X̱peyʼ (pronounced “kh-pay”) is the Coast Salish word for Cedar, a tree stewarded on their ancestral lands along the coastal forests of the Pacific Northwest.

This sacred medicine is traditionally honored for its cleansing, protective, and grounding properties. Its smoke carries a deep, woodsy aroma with a fresh, slightly peppery finish—used to clear energy and restore balance to a space. 

According to Coast Salish oral history, Red Cedar first emerged from the burial site of a deeply generous man—one who gave freely to his community in times of need. The Creator ensured his spirit would continue to care for the people through the tree that grew in his place.

That spirit of care lives on in the many ways Cedar supports wellness. Forest bathing—immersing oneself in wooded environments—has been shown to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and improve mental clarity. Tree compounds like phytoncides, naturally released by cedars and other conifers, support immune function and foster a sense of calm and well-being.
