Muraqaba: observation, inner stillness and oneness, place from which you can observe reality

Muraqaba is a meditation with origins in Islamic Sufi traditions.  The practice involves observing the heart, reaching an inner stillness as to remove material and sensory barriers to Divine Presence. Whereas western pursuit of mediation is typically focused on strengthening the brain, muraqaba pursues deeper connection with Divine Presence which can naturally result in mindfulness. Benefits of muraqaba include reduced blood pressure, improved attention span, greater emotional regulation.

Bismillah Babe develops home fragrances illuminating the intersection of mysticism and science. Inspired by the Sufi poet, Rumi, our fragrances are an ode to Divine order. Our ancestral traditions have long utilized the power of scent to "shift states", purify, and enhance. In fact, only in recent years has neuroscience caught up to ancient wisdom-confirming that the olfactory nerve being the shortest sensory nerve in your body & part of your autonomic nervous system-regulates unconscious processes such as breathing and your heart beating. As such, we believe scents & the sense of scent are a sacred portal to the dimensions within us and around us.
