UNITED OTHER

“The intimacy of the incense. An invitation in a whisper. The art of possibilities—where you are alone with not simply yourself, but the possibility of your better self because you are listening. The sacred space between being + becoming. Hold this to your heart. We are united in our deeper love, so trust this. It will bring us together even if we can’t see each other yet.”

-Ellen Nguyen, Founder | Owner

UnitedOther aspires to bridge the widening divide between sacred rituals + the modern world by honoring the primary + natural technologies of our ancestors—the cave painters, the stargazers + the spiritual healers. 

Through research of sacred woods, herbs + tree resins from all around the world, each incense blend is intended to create an atmosphere of peace + serve a powerful purpose. From hand-dying the Nepalese paper to rolling each incense rope by hand, UnitedOther craft their incense blends in small batches to ensure the highest quality. The Tibetan-style incense ropes offer a pure + all-natural incense experience because they don't contain any charcoal, binding additives + synthetic fragrances. The result is an experience as delicately fragrant as it is visually stunning.

UnitedOther seeks answers to the deeper questions—how to heal, to grow + to love unconditionally. This is the celebration of the greater dynamic whole. The city of Los Angeles is their home base and we are so fortunate to call Ellen our neighbor + partner in business. Her beautiful product is in support of her larger purpose—the bringing together of human beings to connect + unify them. Ellen describes that purpose as one which honors every story earned + lived.

“My hope for UnitedOther is to help create a sacred space for personal rituals in our modern world. Sacred rituals that inspire + allow us the space to grow into a deeper connectivity with our true selves, to one another + the universe at large. It’s about transforming the ordinary. A new way of seeing + being. It says to dream + trust. The more that we start to do so—collectively—we can create a bigger context, a larger permission + a greater love.”

Ellen’s wise + poetic words inspire us to reach toward a better version of ourselves. Better listeners who utilize spiritual practices to increase community. Self improvement with a larger purpose. To come together in union. The true art of possibilities.

As we light a match + inhale.
