Join the #UnlockYourFlow Challenge (Nov 4 – Dec 19)

When incense meets intention, everyday moments turn into little rituals. To celebrate that feeling, we’re inviting you to share how you “unlock your flow” this season - before study time, a journaling break, a creative sprint, or whenever you need a reset. Light a stick, breathe, and show us your moment.

How to Enter (Instagram & TikTok)

• Post an original photo or video of a moment when incense helps you focus or lift your mindset.

• Include #UnlockYourFlow in the caption and mention our official account (@nipponkodo_usa on Instagram or @nipponkodo on TikTok).

• Use any incense you love - no purchase necessary. 

• Make sure your post and account are public.

Why Join?
Because flow is personal. Maybe it’s Aloeswood before deep work, Palo Santo to reset the room, or Lavender to wind down with friends. Show us your way of bringing intention into the everyday - and invite others to do the same. (We’ve been exploring how incense supports focus, creativity, and calm across modern routines in our News posts - heritage meeting everyday life is kind of our thing.) 

Make Your Starter Ritual (Optional)
If you’re new to incense or want an easy setup, our Zen Begin Incense Starter Kit lets you pick your vibe and plate, then light up your moment before you study, journal, or create. It’s a simple way to build a habit you’ll look forward to.
