Candlelight, having the warm coloured accent light, enhances the feeling of a nested, secure, and inviting space and suggests that it’s time to unwind. Scented candles may also evoke natural fragrances and, this way, have a positive impact on healing processes, help us relax or even get energized.
However, you should know that burning candles releases toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into our air, and some candles are more harmful than others. Always prefer candles that are organic and eco-friendly with cotton or wood wicks made from natural vegetable ingredients like coconut wax, rapeseed wax, beeswax or soy wax.
