Strengthen your spiritual energy and enjoy a quiet, meditative moment watching the soft clouds of myrrh, mastic, sandarac, elemi and camphor ascend to the heavens. Even your creative and sexual life will benefit from these recipes!

Along with exact specifications for mixing herbs, you’ll find instructions for preparing incense-burning vessels, as well as planning ceremonies and games.
