CANDLE ENERGY - 'Healing Candle'
Candles are burned not only for the soft, soothing light they provide, but also for the effect they have on our mind & spirit. Combining herbs, oils and affirmation to the energy of the candle can have a profound effect on your well-being. Light the candle, sit quietly and say or read an affirmation or prayer appropriate to your intent.
SAVE 20% this month on our 'Healing' votive candle. A rich purple color, this candle is sweetly scented with honeysuckle and peppermint and comes with an affirmation: 'Body, Mind & Spirit, I release all dis-ease and fill myself with Universal healing energies.'
