EN: Fumigation; incensing
Before air fresheners and Glade, there was 'pagsusuob'. It's the OG way to get rid of bad vibes (or bad smells) by burning something fragrant or blessed. Think of the smoke from incense in a church, or the 'pa-usok' your lola does with dried leaves to ward off evil spirits or sickness ('usog').
Commonly used in religious or traditional folk medicine contexts.
🇵🇭 Isinasagawa ang pagsusuob sa silid ng maysakit bilang bahagi ng ritwal ng pagpapagaling.
🇺🇸 The fumigation/incensing is performed in the sick person's room as part of the healing ritual.
