Although the holder itself helps collect the ash in one place and makes the process tidier, burning incense still needs to be handled with care.
The main precautions:
- light incense on a flat, stable surface so that the stick and holder do not tip over;
- do not leave a lit stick unattended;
- keep the holder away from flammable items — curtains, paper, textiles;
- place it somewhere out of reach of children and pets.
It is also worth ventilating the room during and after using incense and waiting for the ash to cool completely before putting the holder away. If anyone in the household is sensitive to smoke or has breathing problems, it is better to use incense sparingly and with good ventilation. These simple rules help make home rituals safer.
