The quiet crackle, bright dancing flame, the scent of heavenly essential oils and soy wax, the warm glow - candles bring some magic to our physical senses as they soothe the soul.

As soon as we light a candle, we feel calmed by the pleasant predictability of the outcome. There’s an association with relaxation, sacredness, celebration or romance. It’s a humble pleasure that is exponentially abundant as our senses register - there is goodness here.

Candles help us create a beautiful space for ourselves or to share with others, whether for a lively festivity or a quiet space for rest or self-care. The simplicity of a good candle packs a punch in how it can elevate and transform a space.

A candle’s flame symbolises the inner spark of our truest essence and source of our inner glow. Although the flame is bright, the light it casts is soft - no artificiality can replicate that glow. It is both alive and vibrant, soft and gentle, as are we.

The small decision to light a candle is a moment of intent. Striking a match and touching it to the wick offers a satisfying hiss as we commence the span of time in which the candle shares its magic. It’s a moment to appreciate, and we can add an intention if we wish. It can be as simple as a quick decision to bring more light, warmth and beautiful aroma to our space, or part of a more conscious ritual.

The essential oil candles in our A Moment For You range can be used in either way. If you want to bring more intent to your experience, you can recite the mantra of the candle you have chosen.

How to get the most out of your candle

Allow it to burn and infuse your surroundings, ideally for a minimum of one hour to bring the fullness of the aromatherapy and other sensory benefits to your space.
Set an intention as you light the candle, especially if you’ll be using it for meditation or a creative or personal purpose. This can take just a moment or you can spend longer in a more conscious connection with your intention.
When it’s time to extinguish, you could offer a flash of gratitude for what the candle has brought you and your environment, through to saying a conscious ‘thank you’ to the flame at the end of a meditative or self-care experience.

Now go, enjoy your moment that is just for you!
