Burning incense
The power of incense comes from its smoke. As the incense burns it releases molecules into the air by combustion. These are energetically charged molecules released through heat and can be absorbed subliminally by the body.
This is how incense can act as a sedative; by stimulating certain nerve endings to release calming hormones.
The best incenses for different seasons, locations or areas are listed below:
- Spring incense (March 21st – June 20th) : Incenses that are fresh and crisp like Citronella, Cinnamon Leaf, Lemon Grass or Lemongrass, Rosemary and Eucalyptus.
- Summer incense (June 21st – September 22nd) : Incenses that are fresh and invigorating like Citronella, Cinnamon Leaf, Lemon Grass or Lemongrass, Rosemary and Lavender.
- Autumn incense (September 23rd – December 20th) : Incenses that are tranquil like Sandalwood and Frankincense, Cedar and Myrrh as well as woody incenses like Juniper Berry. Colder incenses like White Sage or Blue Tansy would also be good for this time of the year.
- Winter incense (December 21st – March 20th) : Incenses that warm you up like Sandalwood and Frankincense, Cedar and Myrrh as well as incenses that have a strong base note of Vanilla or Benzoin. Hot incenses like Gingerbread incense would be really good for this time of the year.
- Jasmine incense: This incense is for all seasons except Spring incense. It is a heavy sweet incense which is said to calm the heart and even cure depression.
- Indian incense: Indian incenses are blended with sandalwood to produce hot calming scents so if you live somewhere warm, they could work anywhere apart from winter incenses. They are very powerful so would not be ideal in enclosed spaces but amazing outdoor in Summer months they help attract water spirits!
Method To Burn Incense
The incense that you choose is important but equally important are the incense burning techniques. It seems obvious to say incense needs oxygen to burn properly, but incenses are not all created equal.
Some incenses are made from heavier oils or resins which do not easily burn unless there is enough heat and air for them to combust with. Others incense materials are very delicate and even a small amount of too much heat can damage them. The incense should be burned in the incense burner or incense holder designed for that type of incense.
**Conclusion**So, incense brings different elements to your home and environment. Incense is a great way to relax and de-stress. It also increases the interior beauty. Try incense sticks or incense cones or Indian incenses like Nag Champa for lovely calming scents.
