Earth Incense: Natural Five Elements TCM Blend for Digestive Harmony

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the Five Elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—govern our body’s vital organs and energy cycles. The Earth element governs the spleen and stomach—our bodies’ central hub for transforming food into vital energy (Qi) and nutrients. When Earth energy is balanced, digestion flows smoothly, energy remains steady, and we feel grounded and nourished. Imbalances often lead to bloating, fatigue, and poor nutrient absorption.

Why Earth Incense? The Role of Natural Incense in TCM

Earth incense is a form of natural incense crafted to support the spleen’s function in TCM. Burned during the late afternoon—when Earth Qi peaks (3 PM–6 PM)—Earth incense fortifies spleen Qi, enhances digestion, and cultivates a calm, grounded atmosphere.

Our signature Earth-element blend, Houtu, is meticulously crafted from pure, natural herbs to deepen digestive support and grounding energy without any synthetic additives:

Angelica, Astragalus, Safflower, Poria, Codonopsis, Stir-fried Atractylodes, Dendrobium, Cypress, Agarwood, Sandalwood.

Each component synergizes to enhance spleen and stomach function, support nutrient transformation, and create a warm, earthy aroma that invites calm and stability.
