I knew that 2021 wouldn’t magically make the world go back to normal and Trump disappear, but I was hopeful that it’d be much better than this. Boy, was I wrong. To bring some much-needed positive energy into my space, I’m on the hunt for cleansing candles, because apparently my New Year’s Eve traditions didn’t do the job.
I love candles as much as the next gal, but I usually just light them to make my room smell better—not for any particular higher purpose. But these horrible past two weeks have inspired me to look at candles differently. I’ve barely cracked open my crisp, new planner or so much as glanced at any 2021 goals. I’ve been glued to the news. If a candle can chase away the negative energy that’s in my room (and in this world). I’m willing to try it.
Cleansing candles usually have sage, Palo Santo or other meditative scents. The scents are supposed to help clear out the cloud of anxiety or stress around you. Some cleansing candles come with affirmations and intentions, so you can focus your energy in a more positive and productive way.
I rounded up cleansing candles for all types, including the hyper-spiritual to the mild skeptic. Some candles are millennial chic while others are crystal candles you’d definitely find in your yoga studio. If you, like me, are struggling a little in 2021, I recommend checking out the candles below.
I’m saying that 2021 doesn’t officially start until January 20. After that, maybe I’ll give my New Years’ resolutions a shot.
