FOCUS ON RESINS: GUGGUL
Also known as GOKUL / BDELLIUM / MUKUL MYRRH
A GRADE - $7.95 / 15g
Our Guggul is the highest grade of GUGGUL / GOKUL / BDELLIUM / MUKUL MYRRH PIECES, sourced from Nepal.
This Guggul resin is from the Commiphora wightii (a flowering plant in the family Burseraceae, most common in northern India), and is also known under the common names Indian bdellium-tree, or Mukul myrrh.
The gummy resin is harvested from the small tree’s bark through the process of tapping. When burned as incense, Guggul has a fragrance similar to myrrh, with a warm, slightly sweet, balsamic, herbaceous and earthy aroma with hints of vanilla.
Guggul is often burnt after sundown to lend a tranquil note to the evening – it is the same product that was known in Hebrew, ancient Greek and Latin sources as bdellium. It is also a useful resin to burn during meditation.
When carried from room to room, Guggul is said to drive away evil spirits and remove the evil eye from the home and its family members. Comiphora wightii has also been a key component in ancient Indian Ayurvedic medicine for nearly 3,000 years.

* Swipe to see the full SMUDGING PRAYER, a gently worded ritual for Smudging. *
WHAT IS SMUDGING?
Many Indigenous tribes of the US and Canada traditionally perform a purification ritual known as ‘smudging’: using herbal smoke to clear the atmosphere of negative vibrations and fill the environment with positive, uplifting energies.
Smudge Sticks are typically bundled wands made of bound herbs such as White Sage, Cedar or Pine leaves, other sage variations, or braids made from Sweetgrass. Loose herbs can also be burned, or `bombs` made from a blend of suitable botanicals.
WHITE SAGE has been traditionally used to purify the mind, body and spirit before praying, to cleanse the atmosphere and disperse negativity – sage is believed by many to be a masculine plant that can reduce or eliminate negative energy; some place sage at doorways for protection against evil.
PALO SANTO means ‘Holy Wood’ in Spanish. Using the burning timber as incense has traditionally been used against bad energy, or for good luck; the oil was used during the time of the Incas for its reputed spiritual purifying properties, and charcoal from the burnt wood has also been used for ritual smudging. Both the smoke and oil have been used for centuries for medical purposes, and the smoke is even used as an insect (mosquito) deterrent.
Scientifically, papers published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology have found that burning sage can act as an air purifier, clearing airborne bacteria by up to 94% – suggesting that the ancient practice of burning powerful herbal material has strong scientific grounding and medical benefits.

KA-FUH WHITE PLUM Japanese
Our Ka-Fuh range by Nippon Kodo is our latest addition to our Japanese incense collection, and WHITE PLUM is one of our all-time favourite scents (though all four scents are stunning).
The sweet, clear floral notes of WHITE PLUM will permeate the air to please and delight you.
Also available in Hinoki (Japanese Cypress), Lavender and Aqua, Ka-Fuh is the scent of flowers on the wind, a moving encounter in the forest. These environmentally friendly incense sticks are made from selected natural organic ingredients, a fusion of Japanese craftsmanship that has been passed down for more than 400 years, along with the latest incense techniques, perfect for the lifestyles of people today.
Like most Japanese ‘koh’ sticks, Ka-Fuh incense has faint smoke and a mild scent that lingers in your mind – perfect for those who enjoy a more subtle scent. For a stronger fragrance, burn a couple of sticks at a time.
Each pack contains 50 delicate, bamboo-free sticks (approx 14cm in length – longer than Nippon Kodo’s Morning Star range) plus a small ceramic burning tile. Place over a heatproof dish to burn, or choose a suitable burner. Made in Japan - $9.95 / pack.

HONEYSUCKLE (Lonicera Caprifolium), India.
Honeysuckle is one of those scents that just oozes `spring`, and reminds us of the upcoming warmer weather. And - yes - Honeysuckle Oil is currently half price in our CLEARANCE section (was $29.95 / 10ml - NOW $14.95).
Honeysuckle oil has a sweet, honey-like floral scent: the sweetly floral fragrance can help melt away mental and physical stress while leaving you with a tranquil, calm state of mind, and is often used as an additive in perfume oils and body products. Like some oils, it can be quite strong whiffed straight from the bottle, but try adding a drop or two to a tissue to add the subtle, uplifting fragrance to your space.
Honeysuckle essential oil is steam distilled from the flowers of the Lonicera Caprifolium, which is native to eastern Asia and Japan – the flowers, seeds, and leaves are used for various medical purposes, or for centuries have been used in Chinese medicine to help treat respiratory conditions.
The oil is believed to possess a number of potent antioxidants, along with certain acids that fight free radicals, which may help decrease the process of aging. Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties make it an excellent oil to help prevent bacterial infections, or to treat aching joints and sore muscles – it may also be of benefit against some of the effects of arthritis. Anti-microbial qualities make the oil useful in treating infections, viruses and other harmful microbes.
Try adding a few drops to hair products for a helpful hair moisturising treatment.
