Ever been to a church or temple which had that smoky, yet pleasant aroma in the air? Incense appears to bring the mind’s focus toward the inner spirit, relaxing the body. Scientifically speaking, powerful smells both inhibit and excite certain cells in the olfactory area of the brain. They have also been known to have aphrodisiac qualities. A different kind of fulfillment can be found when using incense for private relaxation.
