Below, we will go over some tips when it comes to scented meditation<\/a> candles.<\/p>\n We suggest that you choose handmade candles or aromatherapy candles that are made from non-toxic chemicals. Since the main goal of meditation is to loosen up and decompress, it is important that the candles you pick don\u2019t release vapors that are harmful.<\/p>\n As much as the calming scent of the candle has an important role when it comes to meditation, so does the color. Each color represents something different.<\/p>\n For instance, for spirituality, you should be one of the following colors: blue, purple, or white. If you want romance, passion, power, and happiness, go for a red or pink candle. For prosperity and wealth, use a green candle.<\/p>\n Also, when picking candles, make sure that they are natural-colored fragranced candles.<\/p>\n Once you have chosen the candle for your scented candle meditation, the next stage of preparation is to create an ambiance that is relaxing. Choose a room that is quiet and free from clutter and noise. Before you light the candle, turn off the lights.<\/p>\n Let the candle flame occupy your mind by staring at it. To avoid strain to your eye, make sure that the candle is positioned at eye-level with you. You will lose visual awareness of the things around you as you stare into the candle.<\/p>\n While you keep your eyes on the candle light, start taking deep breaths. Let yourself go and get immersed in the beauty of the fire. You can get distracted easily if you are a beginner at meditation; however, over time, it will become more and more easy to stay focused.<\/p>\n While meditating, let go of all the hate and fears that you have buried inside you and let your emotions and imagination run free. You can really find a profound sense of inner peace if you manage to make the most out of the flame of the candle.<\/p>\n Once you learn to meditate with the help of a homemade aromatherapy candle or a soy candle, you will find it hard to go back to regular meditation.<\/p>\n Many people are unable to clear their minds which is the reason why they don\u2019t really believe in meditation with scented candles. If you happen to be one of these people, all you need to do is choose the perfect scent that helps you relax and don\u2019t give up on practicing this type of meditation.<\/p>\n In the following section, we will go over some scents that are suitable for this type of meditation.<\/p>\n Jasmine<\/a> is an ideal pick for you if you have the soul of an unrecoverable romantic and you love the smell of blooming gardens.<\/p>\n This plant is among the most expensive and the most used in the whole world and it has many benefits that contribute to your daily life. Light a jasmine candle as soon as you\u2019re home if the stress of the city gets a hold of you throughout the day.<\/p>\n Jasmine will help you relax, calm down, and unwind from all the stress from your day. After a day at the gym, at work, or in school, fill your tub with water and lit scented candles with jasmine, and you will feel immediately better.<\/p>\n One of the most well-known candles when it comes to unwinding and relaxing is definitely lavender<\/a>. The scent of the candle exuberates tranquility and well-being, and it also helps people stay mentally clear.<\/p>\n Lavender is also said to help a lot of people that have problems sleeping, and it also has a very calming effect when it comes to migraines and headaches.<\/p>\n Sandalwood<\/a> is used very often to make candles, due to its bactericidal, antidepressant, sedative, and aphrodisiac properties. The scent is strong, decisive, and intense.<\/p>\n People who aren\u2019t very big fans of strong smells probably won\u2019t like this candle; however, it is the perfect candidate for those who aren\u2019t very keen on smells that are too sweet. It is an amazing natural antidepressant and it has a very relaxing effect on the nervous system.<\/p>\n There are also vanilla-scented candles that can be used for meditation. Vanilla <\/a>has been found to have anti-anxiety and antidepressant properties.<\/p>\n The smell of vanilla manages to create positive emotions, feelings and thoughts in a person. It helps people with the reduction of tension and induction of peaceful sleep, and it also widely used in many products that are homeopathic in order to combat stress and anxiety.<\/p>\n Some of the most popular scents of candles are definitely florals. Florals are used in diffusers, air fresheners, wax melts, room sprays, and of course, candles. This scent is based on soft aromas and flowers which has a relaxing and calming effect on the body and the mind of the person near them.<\/p>\n When it comes to candles, some of the most common floral scents are rose and jasmine, but others include ylang-ylang, peony, calendula, chamomile, gardenia, geranium, and lilac. These are romantic and soft scents and do great for meditation.<\/p>\n Meditation with a scented candle<\/a> is used to de-stress and relax the body and is a great thing to practice even if you aren\u2019t going through a particularly stressful period of your life. The different scents that the candle brings can aid in the feeling of relaxation and calmness as well as making the experience more pleasant overall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are you feeling stressed?
