Candles are topped with crystals which have been charged and cleansed under the full moon with sage to get the most out of their natural energies.

All three of these candles really help you to ground yourself and connect with the element of earth and nature.

Grounded - Specially formulated for when you feel off-center and your root chakra needs some TLC. Benzoin, Sandalwood and Vetiver work together by creating a harmonious and sensual aromatherapy blend.

Benzoin has calming, stabilizing qualities and is especially recommended when working with the root chakra.

Emotionally, Sandalwood Essential Oil is calming and helps to instill a sense of inner peace. It is a good choice to try in cases of stress, depression or low self esteem. Sandalwood is also considered an aphrodisiac.

Vetiver can change the face of the earth as it does people, as it has the power to pull out toxins from soil and ground water, leaving a healthy wake in its path. It can do the same for the body and especially the mind.

When stress or anxiety fills the body or the mind is spinning off in a thousand different directions, Vetiver can ground and stabilize the senses, the mind and the thoughts.

These three oils working together produce a sweet, sensual, rounded scent without being overpowering.

Quartz crystals and pink cornflower decorate the top of the candle.

Sacred Smoke - Burning this candle will clear your space, rendering it energised, safe, creative, calm and deeply rested.

Since Ancient times Palo Santo and Sage have been used to connect to the spirit world and to help cleanse space before and after a ceremony.

Cedarwood and Patchouli have been used to bring together two powerful cleansing oils and create the ultimate ritual blend.

This is the perfect candle to use during moon rituals.

Topped with tigers eye gemstone crystals and dried heather for protection and grounding.

Forest Bathing - Forest Bathing (shinrin-yoku in Japanese) is the act of 'taking in the forest atmosphere' i.e. being in nature. The healing, fresh aroma of Fir Balsam, Vetiver and the woody base notes of Cedarwood are all found in this candle!

With added snowflake obsidian crystals which help balance mind, body and spirit and also nettle leaf botanics on top.

Close your eyes and let this candle surrender you to the sights, sounds and smells of nature and letting the forest in.

Note: Always take the dried botanics off the top of the candle before lighting. Be careful when working with a naked flame and don't leave candles unattended.

NB: These candles have wooden wicks so they burn differently to the typical cotton candle. The first burn is very important, you should give your candle enough burning time to develop a melted wax pool that goes all the way to the edge of the container on the first use. If you don’t allow your candle enough time to form a full melt pool on the first burn, a little depression or “tunnel” may start to form around the wick. After the first use, you don’t have to let a full wax pool form every single time, but it is ideal if you want to get the most life out of your candle. Just make sure you give your jar candles a nice long burn every so often to “reset” the wax memory and prevent any tunnelling. This is to ensure a nice even burn and prevent tunnelling. If you struggle to light the wick, it may be too long or may require cleaning. For optimal burn, keep your wood wick trimmed to about ⅛”, and clean off any burnt wood from previous use.
