It encourages people to take the leap and better follow their own path in life, free from fear and obstacles. **Enhance vitality, be positive and optimistic, and surpass yourself** Our bouquets allow people to connect with nature and explore our roots. An olfactory journey into our childhood memories, where imagination leads reality. It feels like living in a wooden house, as if living in nature. Like traditional shamans and herbalists from multiple civilizations, we continue the ancient practice of fumigation. Enjoy this ritual in your home day or night, alone or with the whole family. The smoke produced by fumigating and burning plants can purify polluted air, adjust the magnetic field, and soothe emotions. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53549739067_9163eab1ce_b.jpg The incense bouquets originate from the ancient French tradition. They are selected from the Périgord region in southern France using biodynamic farming methods and organically collected from the wild. Flowers that have passed the French AB organic agriculture national certification are used as raw materials, and the auxiliary materials are purely handmade with organic cotton ropes that comply with GOTS (Global Organic Textile Certification Standards). https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53553308685_29ef8e9bde_b.jpg **Bear Bouquet Energy: Increases vitality, positivity, and relieves anxiety** Ingredients: cedar, fig leaf, everlasting flower Accessories: organic cotton rope Size: approx. 16 to 18 cm (Each handmade piece is unique, so there will be slight differences in size and weight) Weight: about 40-50g Origin: France Dosage: Burn and purify according to your state of mind, can be used approximately +- 30 times. **cedar** TOTEM’s pine trees are harvested from the wild in Périgord The cedar is considered a mythical tree in many civilizations, and in the Far East, from China to Japan, symbolizes eternal life due to its evergreen leaves and imperishable resin. Cedar is a symbol of life and a universal representation of resilience and vitality. Its branches symbolize the energy that flows through friendship and relationships. When fumigated, it acts as an antiseptic and tonic. It is also said to transfer evil spells to the caster and protect people from negative energies. **fig leaves** TOTEM’s fig leaves are wild picked from Périgord The tree is a symbol of enlightenment, especially in ancient Egypt. It is also the tree of Buddha (the Bodhi tree) under which he received enlightenment. It is also a symbol of immortality and higher knowledge. The roots of the fig tree, because of their strength, represent our own roots: they grow through walls and rocks. **everlasting flower** TOTEM's preserved flowers are harvested from the wild in Charente, Charente-Maritime. Italian immortal flower (Wax) It is named for its flowers, which do not wilt and retain their golden color even after being picked. In Greek mythology, Apollo decorated his headdress with this flower to awaken his pursuit of immortality. This symbol is not only the glory of divinity, but also the wealth and abundance of human beings, which is endless and eternal. This spice-scented flower has many qualities. During World War I, it was used in hospitals for fumigation to purify the air due to its anti-infectious properties. The flower is also said to soothe "pain of the soul" such as anxiety and promote sleep. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53552867591_305aa538d0_b.jpg **Bear** The bear is one of the most powerful animals, representing brute strength and fearless courage. According to legend, the Vikings wore bearskins during times of war to frighten their enemies. Among the Celts, the bear symbolized warrior spirit and courage in battle. It used to be considered an ancestor and cousin of humans. Initially worshiped throughout Europe and then fought over until it almost disappeared in France, it remains a fascination. The specificity of its hibernation, its ability to self-regulate and draw from itself essential resources to survive the winter make it a source of inspiration. The totem animal of the bear encourages introspection and wisdom, and it represents strength and protection. Its gentle and delicate nature hides beneath its large and dark appearance. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53550847864_b6789d3dd4_b.jpg **How to use** 1.
