Key Features

• One ounce of granular benzoin resin incense

Product Details

This pack holds one ounce of granular benzoin, a loose resin incense meant for charcoal burning rather than self-lighting. You will need a charcoal disc and a heatproof censer or burner filled with sand or ash. A little resin goes a long way, so begin with a small pinch and add more as you like.

The Spiritual Significance

Benzoin has long been burned to purify, to bless, and to lift the energy of a space, and its sweet smoke is often added to prosperity and offering blends. Burn a pinch to cleanse a room, to sweeten an offering, or to support intentions for abundance and good cheer. Let the warm smoke carry your purpose. The incense supports your own intention rather than acting on its own.

How To Use

Light a charcoal disc in a heatproof censer filled with sand or ash and let it ash over. Sprinkle a small pinch of benzoin onto the glowing charcoal and let the smoke rise as you hold your intention. Add more resin as needed. Never leave burning charcoal or incense unattended, keep it away from drafts and anything flammable, and let the charcoal cool fully before discarding.
