Day 7 of 'a month of me time'. Today's tip from The Calm Space simply, light a candle.
A flame can help you focus, a flame can help you breathe, a flame can help you relax. It's also a great aid to meditation and quieting down those hundreds of thoughts running through your busy mind.
I love having a scented candle burning in the house. When I remember to light a candle, it is usually in the evening, when I can enjoy the quieter part of the day. I love how a scented candle fills the room with divine fragrance, instantly transforming the environment. Creating peace and tranquillity, an atmosphere I feel so comfortable in that I can't help but to relax in.
I'm going to buy myself a new scented candle tomorrow. Can you offer me suggestions on your favourite fragrances to fill my home?
I love anything with vanilla for relaxation, or citrus for reenergising. Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI adore scented candles, but so many disappoint when they're lit. I have a gorgeous French Pear candle - it's a soy candle by an Aussie company Wicked Wix. It's in a gorgeous glass jar with lid and even though I've lit it loads of times I've hardly used any of it. I also adore a lemony smell - such as lemon verbena. Mmmmmmm. And of course, I'm with Kellyansapansa and will always be smitten with Vanilla.
ReplyDeleteLadies thank you for your advice!! I'm going to act on both - cheers :)
