Have you ever thought that the right scent can promote healing, enhance meditation and cleanse energies? Our sense of smell is incredibly powerful and shouldn't be underestimated. Scented candles have been used for centuries in all manner of rituals. The gentle, mesmerising quality of their light makes them a perfect aid for any relaxation routine. Melt takes the science of scented candles one step further; aromatherapy treatment is a natural way of healing a person's mind, body and soul.
The smell of the scented candle stimulates the part of your brain which is connected to memories and feelings of the past - both good and bad. A scent is never just a fragrance. From boosting energy through to relieving stress or even enhancing mental clarity, the healing properties coming from a lighted scented candle can deliver psychological effects. In recent years, various studies have revealed that the olfactory stimulation of fragrances produces immediate changes in imbalances of psychological wellbeing such as blood pressure, muscle tension, skin temperature, pulse rate and brain activity.
Learning and understanding different effects of various scents helps you take control of your mood and light the candle you need to affect your mood. For example, certain scented candles help reduce feelings of anxiety and fear, boost your mood and reduce stress.
