Sandalwood is the number one choice for meditation incense and indeed, it is used in Buddhist temples, where the rich, warming, woody aroma gives way to slightly sweet, balsamic and floral notes. Sandalwood is known for its calmative effects as well as inducing feelings of serenity and well-being, which can help to relieve depression and anxiety.
Lavender has long been known for its deeply relaxing scent and this can be very useful whilst meditating, as it helps to relax and slow down the mind, whilst also helping to relieve tension in the muscles. With a beautiful floral fragrance, it has the ability to lift our emotions, increase positivity and bring balance to our minds.
Frankincense & Myrrh is a wonderful combination of two age old scents, that are associated with peace, harmony and spiritual purity. In meditation, this combination can be used to open the mind to the universal consciousness, allowing us to have deeply spiritual and insightful meditations.
Amber is associated with self-learning and self-discovery and as such, meditations on the meaning of life, or changes to your life, are enhanced by using amber incense, which can help you to gain knowledge from within.
