Talk of candles and incense (in Tills post below) during church service. I'm currently burning incense and 16 candles in my living room. Very relaxing, along with some sedate chilling music on my lappy.
Anyone else use candles and incense at home? For some reason my mates seem to think that its a 'womans thing' but do comment that my home is very relaxing.
Just curious, thanks.

Anything that makes you feel calm and relaxed can't be a bad thing, Nailit. I hope you're keeping well.
Don't use either as much as I once did, but yes very relaxing and not at all purely a girlie thing Nailit.
Sounds tranquil.
Scented candles every night in our lounge and they are relaxing
Yes we're all candlelight in the evening and burn incense. My partner is worse than me for it so definitely not a girly thing x
Not so much lately. I buy candles, then hate to ruin their perfection by burning them. I just bought one called Amber and Oud Wood...it smells the way I'd expect Marrakech to smell.
My favourite incense is Nag Champa.
I don't like incense but do use scented candles. All around the house I have got battery candles with timers so as the light goes, the candles come on which is very cosy and comforting.

//I think candle light is much more relaxing//
I always think theres something 'primal' about candles (and fire in any context) Much prefer them to lamps.
NoM, I'm not to bad, thanks for asking
Mrs av has a thing about scented candles, and yes I do get incensed about it ;-)

If it makes you feel relaxed and calm it's got to be a good thing, nailit.

Eh? There were only 2 answers when I posted. Think the incense has gone to my head....
With 16 candles burning don't get so relaxed and chilled that you fall asleep. Do you know how many fires are started by candles?
Its not just you nailit...when I posted, several answers appeared *before* what I'd seen as the last reply...if that makes sense.

Dont worry EDDIE, I'm careful with my candles...(unless ive been on the pop....)
Pasta, glad its not just me. Was beginning to wonder if my son had put weed in my incense :-)
Evening Nailit,
I have led ones when my granddaughter is around, and real ones, just tealight size.
I always associate incense with the joss sticks which were permanently burning in our 6th form common room, in the forlorn hope of hiding the smell of smell of weed. Oh, happy days!

;-)
Hate the smell of scented candles! Yeuk !!
You can get Cannabis candles :-)

My cats are bonkers enough, Mamya, without getting them all high at the same time as me!
