Do you know about the benefits of candles?

Candles are known for their soothing, healing properties and are often used by therapists, such as massage therapists, to create a peaceful ambience in their therapy rooms. The sheer act of lighting a candle, its lovely flicker and the gentle glow it creates, helps ease and soothe the mind.

HEALTH
Burning candles can be beneficial to your health. Part of living a healthy lifestyle is self-care and taking care of your mind: lighting candles can provide the perfect atmosphere to induce calm and a sense of well-being. If you ever feel enveloped by fear or feel anxious, burning candles can help with anxiety. Some health benefits are much more direct: candling is used to get rid of earwax buildup.

MEDITATION & PRAYER
Lighting candles during meditation is a wonderful way to support your practice. There are many visualisation exercises and manifestation techniques that involve focusing on the flame of a burning candle while sending your intentions into the universe. Candles are also used during prayer.

Candles make perfect gifts and a nice treat to yourself! Our candles at Chiliandginger candles are luxurious, affordable and sustainable. We believe they shouldn’t be saved just for special occasions but should be an everyday luxury. So why not fill your home with one of our seriously scented candles or one from our essential oils range.
