The concept of karma in the Tibetan tradition
The original meaning of the word karma is simply action, referring to how each of our deeds, thoughts, and words influences our later life. The Good Karma blend seeks to support the intention of mindful, considered, and kind action, its aroma reminding the user that in every moment of the day there is a choice. It is not magic but rather a gentle reminder to slow down everyday life and pay attention to one's own decisions.
The character of the aroma profile
The blend's aroma is fresh, clean, with a slightly green and spicy character, far from heavy or suffocating scents. This lighter, airier note is especially suited for morning or late-morning use, when we wish to support the new beginning of the day and the formulation of fresh intentions. We recommend it to you if, before the new year, a new project, or an important conversation, you want a quiet moment in which to formulate your intentions.
Material and quantity
The powder is made exclusively from natural herbs and aromatic wood dust according to a traditional Nepalese recipe. It contains no artificial fragrances, synthetic fixatives, or colourants. The 155 gram quantity is sufficient for many uses and, stored in a sealed container, retains its aroma for months. Made in Nepal, where the herbs are often gathered by the maker themselves or sourced from small local producers, keeping the powder closely connected to nature.
How to fit it into your day
The most common way of use is to place a glowing charcoal disc or hot ash in a heat-resistant incense bowl and sprinkle half a teaspoon of powder onto it. The powder burns slowly by smouldering and a portion is consumed in 10 to 15 minutes. We recommend, as part of your morning ritual, that you burn a small amount while preparing your morning coffee or tea and quietly state to yourself what you wish to focus on today. These few minutes often set the tone for the entire day.
Storage and safety
Store the powder in a sealed dark glass or metal container in a cool, dry place. Always use a heat-resistant bowl while burning and keep out of reach of children and pets. Never leave unattended, and allow the embers time to cool completely before disposal. Ventilate the smoked room regularly to keep the air fresh.
