So much of our modern world is geared towards getting us to buy, buy, buy, and being passionate loves of candles, it was dismaying to see how so many commercial candles use irritating and potentially dangerous chemicals in their production.

Mass-produced candles are harsh on the environment, too. There’s more waste, and paraffin wax is a petroleum product. Even products which are promoted as containing essential oils often use blends with synthetic bases and other chemicals. Without the real essential oil, there’s no aromatherapy benefit, either.

That’s why we created our Slow Living inspiration blog: to give people like you ways to incorporate a more mindful experience into their home.

From conscious shopping to avoiding chemicals in your home, and from mindful rituals to ways you can live more simply (even when you’re busy), we can’t wait to share the Slow Living journey with you.
