Incense Alchemy Workshop - Devon

A dark, mystical scene with lit candles, dried herbs, flowers, and ritual items, including a hand holding a feather and a small smoldering fire with smoke rising.

Exploring the art of incense blending for ritual, wellbeing & connection

I am not here to teach you how to burn herbs. I am here to guide you in how to work with energy through scent. I have been burning incense since my teens, nearly 40 years of inhaling, relaxing, dreaming and journeying inwards through fragrance, music, books and my imagination. Scent has a powerful way of opening doors within us. It can be calming, grounding, relaxing, sensual and deeply evocative. A single aroma can transport you to a forgotten memory, remind you of happy times, or awaken something ancient and ancestral within you.

I invite you to create your own ritual loose incense blend through scent, intuition and instinct…and discover where the journey takes you.

We will look at the Charms on Incense, different forms of incense, cleansing, intention and visualisation, tools, materials and ingredients, scent families and notes. Giving you the knowledge and know how to create your very own unique crafting your Loose Incense.

You will have access to a range of herbs, flowers and resins and get very hands on with all of them.
This is such a fun topic, and you will be chopping and grinding, learning and enjoying the wins as we create blends that suit your style, personality and purpose.
You will take home your incense blend, charcoal disc and vessel.
