🌿 Cultural & Spiritual Background
This bracelet is rooted in the Taoist tradition of incense therapy (合香)—using natural aromatics to nurture inner stillness and spiritual clarity.
Its formula is inspired by prescriptions from Sun Simiao, a revered ancient healer known for his philosophy of "scent nourishing the heart."
The incense blend supports:
Clearing the mind and settling thoughts
Harmonizing qi and calming emotions
Boosting focus and resisting seasonal fatigue
Restoring energetic flow throughout the day
Blessing Ritual: All incense beads have undergone Daoist energy infusion through incense circling ritual (过香).
