Make room for a quieter moment

Choose incense and vessels with everyday use in mind.

Clear a little space on your desk, set down a glass of water and keep a moment free from hurry. Incense can be a personal everyday habit without a prescribed ritual or promised outcome.

Check ingredients, dimensions and instructions before choosing incense. For a holder, consider stability and how it catches ash. An illustration cannot replace actual product information; ask the seller about anything unclear.

When burning incense, ventilate the room, keep it away from paper, textiles and other flammable materials, never leave it unattended, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

If smoke is not for you, choose a cup of tea or a few handwritten lines instead. There is more than one way to make room for a quieter moment.
