How do you care for your scented candle?
To avoid the formation of a tunnel, you should leave your candle burning until the wax has melted to the edge of the glass and is liquid when you light it for the first time. This takes approx. 2-4 hours, andto ensure that your candle burns evenly, always leave it to burn for at least 1 hour and a maximum of 4 hours at a time, and shorten the wick to approx. 1 cm before each lighting so that no traces of wax or soot form.
Incense rituals - spiritual grounding
Incense burning is one of the oldest rituals in human history. All over the world and at all times, people have used the burning of incense to create certain effects and emotions. Incense was part of everyday rituals but was also associated with special celebrations and festivities, which is why we use incense for a wide variety of occasions: for meditation, yoga, festivities, relaxation in the evening or simply for enjoyment.
How do you smoke?
Light a bundle of incense at the tip, let it burn a little and then blow out the flame to form an ember. You keep the embers alive by adding air - so gently wave or blow in the air. To extinguish it, put it in sand or let it burn out. Now ventilate your rooms well to let in new energy. You can burn incense about 30 times with one bundle and take at least five minutes off before and after burning incense to concentrate fully on your ritual.
Palo Santo - the sacred wood from South America
Palo Santo is our absolute favorite incense because it creates a purified, harmonious atmosphere in no time at all.
The use of Palo Santo (sacred wood) goes back thousands of years to a tradition of the indigenous peoples of South America. Palo Santo wood is said to have healing powers and can transform negative energies into positive energies. When burned, the incense exudes a pleasantly woody, warm and balsamic aroma. In Peru - the origin of our Palo Santo wood - the Palo Santo tree is a protected species.
When buying Palo Santo, it is important to ensure that it comes from sustainable sources in order to protect the environment and respect the traditions of harvesting. Our Palo Santo is harvested without harming the tree by only removing dead wood from the forest. Processing is done by hand by local communities who carefully split the wood into small pieces. This approach is particularly sustainable, as no trees are damaged. Another advantage: naturally fallen branches contain a higher concentration of essential oils than wood from plantation trees. As farms usually use younger trees, their oil content is significantly lower than that of wild-grown palo santo trees.
Palo Santo is said to connect us with "Pacha Mama", Mother Earth, provide inner clarity and harmony , promote creativity and give peace and serenity. It is used in particular to incense rooms in order to fill them with positive energy.
How is Palo Santo smoked?
The Palo Santo stick is lit on one side and made to glow by fanning it with air. The hot resin usually becomes visible. The flame is then gently waved out and the finely smoking Palo Santo is passed through the rooms to cleanse them. The piece is then placed in a fireproof bowl and allowed to burn out.
Palo Santo wood is a very productive - because the Palo Santo wood stick can be lit as many times until it is completely used up.
