HANDMADE SOY CANDLE CINNAMON GINGER NUTMEG ALLSPICE - ETSY EN ESPAÑA

“Warming Spice,” a candle made to warm up on cold days. Fresh ground cinnamon mixed with zesty ginger and grounding allspice, nutmeg, and clove. Light for comfort, connection, grounding during the hectic season, and to warm up on chilly days. There’s some science behind our sometimes fanatical love for spices as the weather cools. These spices are thermogenic: when we eat them our circulation improves and our core temperature rises. This makes them literally “heartwarming,” which may explain why we cook and scent our homes with them while celebrating the season with those we love. They’re also said to be supportive of the heart chakra, helping us open up in connection with others. *** When I began a long and difficult healing journey several years ago I found candles so helpful: the way that they can change the energy of a space, the ritual of lighting them at certain times of day, the combination of the instinctual comfort of a flame and the way that emotions and memories are so strongly evoked by scent. We bring different scents into our homes in different seasons, to create joy around holidays and events, and to create comfort when we need deep healing. Scent became so central to my healing process, but I kept finding I wanted more from the candles I was buying — I wanted scents that were aligned with the spiritual work I was doing, smelled contemporary, and I wanted them in clean burning, paraffin free candles. So, The Sacred Archives was born: as a collection of scents to create space for the very sacred work of being human, in all of the ups and downs of the journey. ***
