What are Healing Candles?
Healing candles are one of our popular products (and for good reason!)
Our healing candles are made with essential oils rather than synthetic ones. Therefore, these candles contain healing properties due to aromatherapy.
Essential oils are derived from highly concentrated plant extracts that contain aromatic elements. These compounds can have a powerful effect on your body and mind, commonly inducing feelings of relaxation, stress and anxiety relief, and overall emotional well-being.
When the essential oils are burned in the candle, they are released into the air, just as they would if you were diffusing with an oil diffuser.
Once the tiny oil molecules are in the air, you will inhale them and absorb them through your nose and straight into your bloodstream. In your bloodstream, the molecules of the aroma will interact with the limbic system, which is a complex network of brain structures that regulates things such as your behavior, motivation, and emotions.
Different essential oils have various therapeutic benefits. It is important to note that each individual person will have a different response to the oil used.
Some essential oils, like chamomile or lavender, will induce feelings of relaxation and sleep. Other oils like spearmint or peppermint are known for their invigorating, energizing properties.
As a whole, aromatherapy using essential oils is not only a popular fad but a natural one as well! You can use these aromatherapy candles for various physical and emotional benefits.
What’s the Deal with Crystals and Candles?
Have you ever wondered why crystals are commonly paired with candles?
Many spiritual practices incorporate the use of crystals and candles, but what exactly is the connection between these two items?
Some believe that the energy from the crystal enhances the energy of the candle, resulting in a more powerful ritual or intention-setting practice. Others believe that the candle’s flame amplifies the energy of the crystal, providing a deeper connection to its properties.
Whatever the reason, the combination of crystals and candles can be a beautiful and meaningful addition to any spiritual practice or home decor.
Some popular crystal and candle pairings include rose quartz and a pink candle for love and self-care, amethyst and a purple candle for spiritual growth and intuition, or citrine and a yellow candle for abundance and prosperity.
Whether you believe in the power of crystals and candles or simply enjoy their aesthetic appeal, incorporating them into your life can add a touch of magic and intention to your daily routine.
Cortney’s Candles Purpose of Crystals in Healing Candles
Cortney’s Candles is a company that incorporates crystals into their candles for added healing power. The purpose is to enhance the relaxation, meditation, and healing effects of Cortney’s products.
The process begins by selecting specific crystals based on their known properties and benefits. (You can choose your crystal as well.) These crystals are then cleansed and charged with energy before being added to the candle wax.
The combination of candle and crystal energy is believed to have a harmonious effect that enhances the overall therapeutic benefits of the product. Each candle is designed with specific intentions in mind, such as promoting peace and tranquility, enhancing creativity, or relieving stress and anxiety.
Crystals have been used for centuries for their healing properties, and incorporating them into candle-making is a natural extension of this practice. Whether you’re looking for a natural way to relax, de-stress, or improve your overall well-being, Cortney’s Candles offers a unique and effective solution.
