Juniper with fir resin
From ancient times juniper is a well-known, common medicinal herb used for incense. The juniper’s aroma cheers up and helps clean the living space spiritually, as well as disinfects the air containing various microbes and viruses. Juniper’s aroma is gentle and velvety. Juniper is used to purify the space, increase endurance, it helps against depressive moods, reduce apathy, mental fatigue and it’s used in meditations and rituals.
Fir resin in traditional healing has been used for hundreds and thousands of years. In ancient Egypt, resin was embedded in embalming compositions and it has been found that these compositions have not lost their bactericidal properties even after 3000 years. All coniferous resins have a pronounced antibacterial, antiseptic, allergy – reducing, antifungal and antimicrobial effect. It is believed that the Latin name ‘picea’ comes from the Greek word ‘pissa’, meaning ‘resin’. That’s why burning spruce needles and its resin helps clean the air, reduce anxiety, improves mood, helps to organize thoughts and overcome difficulties.
Ingredients: juniper, fir resin, charcoal, pine needle
All incense sticks are made from natural ingredients, almost all of which are collected in Latvia. One of the main components of the incense sticks is juniper. Combined with other plants, it produces a variety of fragrances, which are invigorating and healing, and are not similar to the incenses imported from the East. Each one of the plants burns out releasing its energy that acts on our senses and the surrounding space, creating its beneficial effects. In meditation and rituals, these plants help to concentrate psychic energy.
The length of the sticks is about 5 cm, designed to fill a space with the aroma of about 60 – 90m2 while not creating too strong of a scent. The burning duration of one stick is about 15-20 minutes. The five sticks are packed in a nature-friendly wooden twig pack sealed with a bee wax cap. Sticks are also available in other package types, see the section “How to buy” for more.
The long sticks are 17 cm long and, like the short sticks, are intended for room fragrance and creating a mood. The burning time of one stick is about 45 to 50 minutes. Five sticks are packed in a black design cardboard box.
