Timeless Power of Frankincense & Myrrh

Long before they were carried across deserts as gifts for kings and prophets, Frankincense and Myrrh were revered in the ancient world as sacred medicine—used for healing, protection, and ritual.

Today, these two timeless resins continue to support the body, mind, and spirit with wisdom that transcends eras.


🏺 Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Frankincense and Myrrh have been used together for over 2,000 years. They’re considered a “paired medicine”—meaning they are traditionally prescribed together because they enhance and balance one another’s effects.

TCM teaches that disease is often caused by stagnation of Qi (life force), blood, or emotion. Frankincense and Myrrh help restore harmony by:

  • Moving stagnant Qi and blood

  • Easing pain, swelling, and inflammation

  • Supporting wound healing and tissue regeneration

  • Releasing emotional blockages held in the body

Together, they restore flow where there is friction—physically and energetically.


✨ The Sacred Synergy

When used together, Frankincense and Myrrh offer a dynamic harmony of expansion and grounding:

  • 🌬 Frankincense uplifts — calming the mind, expanding spiritual awareness, supporting immunity and cellular healing.

  • 🌍 Myrrh grounds — anchoring the body, cooling inflammation, repairing skin, and inviting reflection.

They bridge heaven and earth.
They bring the body and spirit into conversation.
