Inner Peace with Incense

Not too long ago, I was a stressed out working mom. I worked for top finiancial companies which required long robotic hours. I still feel that the last 5 years of my life is a big blurr. I did not enjoy it as I should have, thereby learning  a huge lesson. Don't let your job consume you! Life is too short, before you know it 5 years have gone by and you have done nothing for yourself. Its okay to pamper yourself, not by running to a nail salon or to a massage therapist ( although it is always fun to get pampered if you have the money). You have to make some time to relax and unwind. My only chance to relax is in the shower when my husband is taking care of my son. One easy technique I use since I only have 5 mintues in the shower is to lite my favorite incense stick before going in. Take a couple of deep breaths, then enjoy my hot shower. Incense is known to cleanses the atmosphere, relax, reduce tension and reduce stress. It is also known to revitalize and renew one's energy and to help insomnia.   When I get out of the shower, I take a couple of deep breaths again then dab the incense stick into a little bit of water and leave it out for the next day. I normally leave it out in a cup next to the sink I don't have to keep taking it out and putting it away. At the same time when I have visitors over, I just stick the cup in the drawer. The aroma of the insence stick stays long enough for me to get ready. It helps me unwind, ease stress and helps me find inner peace. I feel fresh and renewed. Although incense burning has been around for centuries, more people are using them because they are cost effective. One incense stick will last you about two weeks if you take 5 minute showers like me. Although, I don't sell incense sticks on TAEHI.com,  I always insert my favorite incense stick with each order.
