Using incense has lots of benefits. It can help you relax and relieves stress. It also improves quality of sleep. The fragrance such as lavender will help you achieve this. It also helps lower elevated blood pressure. This is achieved by using the relaxing scent of sandalwood. For those people who are stressed or under a lot of pressure, their blood pressure may become elevated. With the calming effect of sandalwood, they can de-stress and relax and gradually improve their health. Another benefit of incense is that it can be used as air freshener. Usually after preparing food or after eating the air in your home will smell pungent from all the food preparation. Burning incense will mask this smell and replace it with a relaxing aroma.
