09 Apr The Cure For Calm: Candles!

For most of us lately, stress levels have been at an all-time high.

We are constantly checking the news, finding ways to communicate with our family and friends and worrying about what tomorrow may bring.

I challenge you today to do one thing.

Breathe…

Instead of increasing your anxiety, when you have a lot on your mind the best thing you can to for your mental health is to find ways to reduce your stress. 

By lighting a candle, it will give you the ideal atmosphere to calm your nerves and begin feeling better.

If you’re ever overwhelmed by any worries, burning a candle can drastically help to improve your mood.

Candles have been long known to help us relax and by enjoying your favorite one, you are setting yourself on a path towards serenity.

Candles can be used in different ways that can restore your sense of tranquility.

Below we will look at some of the methods to do so.

Prayer & Meditation

During stressful moments in our life, nothing can bring us serenity quite like our faith and lighting a candle through prayer or meditation is a great way that you can enhance your practice.

There are a lot of manifestation techniques and visualization exercises that involve putting the focus on a burning candle’s flame while sending the intention to the universe.

Candles are often used in the church for different reasons, for example, to symbolize a prayer or healing request.

Meditation and prayer have both been known for reducing anxiety and stress and this is the perfect time to allow your faithfulness to bring you balance.

Candles & Baths

Many women like combining a relaxing bath with a scented candle.

They put the candles around the bathtub and simply close their eyes and allow the warm water to melt into a satisfying and undisturbed disposition.

Why not make the experience even more pleasurable by combining it with some enjoyable music and indulging with a sweet glass of Moscato, a smooth Cabernet or whatever your favorite beverage is?

A soothing bath is a perfect way to relax and adding candles can make it feel even more luxurious.
