Our Story – Creating Natural Wax & Clean-Burning Candles

I retired from an IT career in 2019. When the pandemic hit, I began focusing on creating a healthier, more balanced life. This included daily work outs as well as a focus on mindfulness, clean eating and intentional living. When I decided to make candles, I drew inspiration from Zen philosophy and began incorporating my candles into my daily rituals. Now, I try to create candles that reflect the calm, clarity and warmth I have found on my journey towards mental and physical well-being.
