Having done yoga and meditation throughout my life thus far you would think I would be using incense on a normal keel, but alas I am allergic as in my throat closes up. I start having allergy symptoms just being around the unburned but once it is open aired or burned my body reacts in dangerous ways.
My daughter uses incense for her meditation and when she was still home we tried different scents to see if there were any I could with stand, so far it is a no go, even with her door closed, window open, and being on the second floor I would have bad reactions. She now has her own place and is able to burn them at will, accept for when I am over then she can't use them.
I do still have allergy symptoms while at her house with a sore throat but not a full blown attack which is nice since I do like to visit her as often as I can.
Now to the product itself. I love that the Chakra company took time to put these sets together for those who would like to meditate and see which of their chakras are strongest or even to strengthen them with just the right scent to help you achieve where you would like to be. For me my strongest is my Third Eye so the Cinnamon and Sage would be my pick but of course even though I can take these scents any other way when made into incense something happens which makes them cause me to have an allergic reaction. For me I just put some cinnamon and sage into a pot of water and simmer which works well for me.
With this set you get all 7 of the scents which are 1 - Root Chakra - Muladhara - Patchouli & Vetiver (Vetyver) 2 - Sacral Chakra - Svadhisthana - Ylang Ylang & Jasmine 3 - Solar Plexus Chakra - Manipura - Bergamot & Ginger 4 - Heart Chakra - Anahata - Sandalwood & Rose 5 - Throat Chakra - Vishuddha - Frankincense & Peppermint 6 - Third Eye Chakra - Ajna - Cinnamon & Sage 7 - Crown Chakra - Sahasrara - Frankincense & Myrrh & Lotus. for a total of 140 incense sticks which are 11 inches long and will burn up to 60 minutes each. They also include 1 wooden burner which are great if you are new to incense or would like to give as a gift.
My daughter says that to keep them fresh she likes to keep them wrapped in between use. She also says to keep them away from pets because some pets might knock it over with their tails or even swat at the smoke when they are in use.
