The tradition of Smudging:

Smudging finds its origin in the USA by the Native American tribes. They burned herbs such as white sage to cleanse themselves and their environment from negative energy. The believe is that negative energies (spirits) do not tolerate the smoke of these burning herbs. And that this acts as a purifying function that attracts positive energies or good spirits.

The Native Americans liked to use symbolism in their rituals. In this way they preferably let the four elements come together: water, earth, fire and air. They did this with a shell (water), earth (herbs), fire (burning of the herbs) and air (smoke).
