These candles will help you unwind after a long day.
We think it’s nice to light candles regularly because number one, candlelight is calming, and number two, they smell amazing.
It’s our olfactory nerve that gives us our sense of smell. It sends messages directly from our nose to our brain which can trigger a change in our mood and emotions.
Mamas, you deserve to chill out at the end of the day and although it’s not always easy to get some time to yourself, ten minutes on the couch with a nice scent in the background is better than nothing.
If you’ve got any candles hiding in the cupboard, why not take them out and light them. Sure, what good are they tucked away?
If you don’t, here are some that we think are perfect to light after you’ve put the kids to bed.
WoodWick Fireside Medium Candle – €24.99
This candle smells absolutely amazing and is a great choice to help you unwind, your three-year-old might have scribbled on the kitchen wall with your lipstick but look, forget about that for five minutes.
An advantage to this candle is the wood lid, it’s great for retaining the fragrance as well.
