I love incense and use it mostly for ritual and purification. In fact, I intend to smoke out my Ritual Room with sage and sandalwood once I get myself back into the right headspace.

As for meditation, I tend to either go with the Golden Mirror visualization or a breathing technique I learned from one of my customers. On rare occasions, like last night, I turn on my Stan Richardson Shakuhachi, which is used at the dojo. Very good bamboo flute.
