- CEDAR: Cedar symbolizes wisdom, interconnectedness, and nurturing.
As the Tree of Life, Cedar helps us connect with the primal source of life. It can help us align with our true selves and stand tall and strong in our truth.
"Cedar is very grounding and can be helpful for when you are in a funk or feeling “out of it”. It has a gentle but powerful way of removing energetic blockages to help hollow you out to receive, connect, cleanse, and be in your power."

- ROSE: Rose is believed to help lift the spirit and open the heart. It can also be calming to the nervous system and help dissolve feelings of hopelessness and indifference. Rose beauty is protected by thorns, allowing the plant to bloom to its full expression without fear or apology. Rose reminds us to embody this courage and live the most authentic and vulnerable version of ourselves, trusting that we are always protected.
- YERBA SANTA: is an excellent remedy for emotional and soul blockages and helps to release grief, despair and melancholy, which can be held in the heart and lungs.

Three ways of burning loose incense:
- With charcoal:
Fill a heat proof dish with soil or sand or use a censor.
Light the edge of a charcoal disc using tongs.
If you are using self-ignite discs you will see it emits sparks.
The disc will then light throughout by itself. It should be left in the incense burner until fully lit. It will soon glow red and is ready to burn your incense.
When ready, place a pinch or two of incense directly on top of the hot disc. A fragrant smoke will emerge immediately. Watch the herbs and resin transform with the heat. Remove burnt herbs from charcoal before adding more, add as much or as little as you need each time.
