Incense-Making Workshop

This is perhaps the most sensory workshop at De Groene Linde! Led by Jessica Vogel, you’ll smell, feel, experience, discover and be filled with wonder. You’ll have access to a rich collection of resins, woods, herbs and essential oils, which you’ll use to intuitively create your own, personalised incense blend. This creates a surprisingly personal journey of self-discovery, during which you’ll discover what appeals to you right now and what resonates with you.

Let’s put our rational minds to one side for a moment and give space to our inner knowing. With the help of the pendulum, you allow your Higher Consciousness to ultimately determine which ingredients are right for you at this moment. The choices may reflect the stage you’re at or what you need right now. Every scent can evoke something: a memory, an association or simply a feeling.

Using the ingredients that resonate with you most, you can create your own unique incense blend in the mortar: personal, intuitive and tailored to your process and the moment. And then something special can happen: ingredients that might not have immediately appealed to you individually suddenly turn out, when combined, to form a surprisingly beautiful and wonderfully fragrant whole.

At the end, the purpose and theme of your unique blend will be revealed. You will take your personalised incense home with you to burn it in its entirety at a quiet moment, with full attention and awareness.

A wonderful workshop to experience – and a unique way to get to know yourself better. Let yourself be surprised by what your senses tell you!

Includes all the necessary ingredients, coffee, tea and a little treat.
