Räucherwerk selber mischen – duftig durchs Jahr

In the organizer's words:

Mix your own incense for special festivals and holidays

Sometimes you just need a little time out with herbs, resins and a relaxed atmosphere. In my workshops, you can mix your own incense - step by step and without any previous knowledge. You will feel how good it is to calm down with all your senses and create something beautiful at the same time.

Each date has a special setting.

We focus on selected festive days of the year, which act as small anchor points in the calendar. They represent themes that affect us all: New beginnings, joie de vivre, gratitude, connectedness or even letting go.

Many ancient traditions begin their festivals on the evening before - a special opportunity to consciously celebrate the transition and use the cleansing energy of the night. That's why my workshops also take place on this eve: This gives you the opportunity to get in the mood for the actual festive night, make your incense blends together and prepare small rituals for the night and the coming festive day.

    Imbolg - Fresh energy for a new beginning
    When winter softens and the first rays of light shine stronger, it's time for a fresh start. In this workshop, you will blend light, cleansing herbs - a fragrant spring cleanse for the soul, cozy, inspiring and soothing.

    Beltane - Women's power and joie de vivre
    Beltane stands for joie de vivre, passion and new beginnings. We capture this powerful energy: With flowers and herbs that radiate pure vitality, you mix your own composition - an incense full of warmth, lightness and summer joy.

    Lughnasadh - Community, gratitude and abundance
    The fields are full, nature is giving us generous gifts - an ideal moment to pause and say thank you. Together we will blend incense that will ground you, strengthen you and remind you of how much abundance is already in your life.

    Samhain - Mystical atmosphere at the turn of the year
    Samhain combines farewells and new beginnings. Mysterious atmosphere and a touch of magic characterize this evening. You mix incense to accompany you during this transitional period - perfect for letting go of the old and starting afresh with new clarity.

    This is what awaits you in the workshops:

    • One and a half hours of coziness - with exciting explanations on the topic and plenty of time to mix your own incense.
    • Large selection of herbs, flowers, woods and resins for your own personal blends.
    • Three small jars with your incense that you can label or decorate with tags - perfect for giving as a gift or keeping for yourself.
    • Soft drinks, tea, coffee and snacks for a creative break in between.
    • All materials are included. Just bring a bag for your finished DIY pieces - rainproof for Hamburg's bad weather.
