Since a newborn baby is still so close to its Creator,
only the best and highest vibrational incenses and
materials are used. Copal incense is one of the purest
and most sacred that there is. It is believed to help
open the soul and can stimulate imagination,
intuition and creativity. Cedar is used to carry
prayers to the Creator. It is used to bridge the gap
between heaven and earth and is often associated
with breaking misuse of power or powerful forces
that may be having a negative influence.
