Instructions for incense: These burners can be used with cones, sticks, or charcoal disks. 1. Prepare Your Incense Burner: Ensure your incense burner is clean and free of debris. 2. Select and Prepare Sand: Choose clean, dry ash or sand suitable for your burner. Pour it into the burner, filling it to your desired level, then smooth the surface for evenness. Optional: if using loose incense, you'll need to light charcoal, to do this safely use tongs and hold your charcoal over an open flame to ignite it. Once your charcoal is glowing use tongs to place in the middle of your incense burner. 3. Place Your Incense: Once the sand is in place you can now add your incense. Whether you're using stick incense, cones, or charcoal discs with resin, the sand provides a stable and heat-resistant surface for your incense to rest on. 4. Enjoy the Aroma: As the resin heats up, it will release its aromatic smoke. Take a moment to inhale deeply and enjoy the fragrance. You can also use a feather or fan to gently waft the smoke around your space. 5. Monitor and Add More: Keep an eye on the resin as it burns. If it starts to diminish or lose its scent, you can add more resin as needed. Be cautious not to overload the burner, as too much resin can smother the charcoal and prevent proper burning. 6. Safety Precautions: Always use caution when working with hot charcoal and incense burners. Place the burner on a heat-resistant surface and keep it away from flammable materials. Never leave burning charcoal unattended. 7. Clean Up: Once you're finished using the burner, allow it to cool completely before handling. Remember to practice mindfulness and intention while using your incense burner, and enjoy the ritual of filling your space with fragrant smoke.
