Styrax incense is extracted from the Styrax officinalis tree, which belongs to the Styraxaceae family. This tree is most commonly found in Turkey, Greece, Lebanon and other parts of the Mediterranean, and prefers warm, dry climates. The resin is collected by making incisions in the bark of the tree, from which an aromatic liquid is released, which is then allowed to harden in the air.
The active compounds in styrax are the main reason for its therapeutic properties. They include:
● Benzoic acid – A compound with antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties that helps protect against microbes and pathogens.
● Cinnamic acid – Has antibacterial and antifungal properties, while also contributing to the specific aroma of styrax.
● Vanillin – An organic compound that adds sweetness and softness to the aroma and has a natural relaxing effect.
● Resinous substances and essential oils – They determine the sticky consistency of the raw resin and enhance its aromatic and medicinal qualities.
Thanks to these substances, styrax resin is not only pleasant to the smell, but also effective as a natural means of purifying the air and relaxing the nervous system.
The effects of using Styrax Incense and its application
Improves mental state and reduces stress
The aroma of styrax resin has a deep relaxing effect, reducing nervous tension and helping to cope with stress. This is due to the presence of vanillin and essential oils, which have a positive effect on the brain, stimulating the release of endorphins.
Facilitates meditation and spiritual practices
Styrax is often used in temples and religious ceremonies for its ability to purify a space and create an atmosphere of calm. Burning it during meditation promotes deep concentration and inner harmony.
Purifies indoor air
Thanks to its natural antiseptic properties, Styrax incense eliminates germs, bacteria, and mold in the air. This makes it extremely useful for use in enclosed spaces, especially during the winter months when ventilation is limited.
Relieves respiratory problems
Styrax acts as a natural expectorant, helping to clear the respiratory tract and can be helpful for mild colds, bronchitis and sinusitis. Inhaling its aroma helps to breathe easier and reduces inflammation in the respiratory system.
Balances the emotional state
Burning styrax can help with conditions such as anxiety, depression, and irritability. Its calming effects are due to its direct impact on the limbic system, the part of the brain responsible for emotions and behavior.
Stimulates the senses and enhances creativity
The scent of Styrax is known for its ability to inspire and encourage creative thinking, making it a popular choice among artists, writers, and musicians looking to improve their concentration.
