One of the hardest things to do in yoga, or even in daily life, is to quiet the mind. Finding stillness in the body is easy, finding stillness in the mind, not so much.
I set my intention on creating a quiet meditation candle that would help to quiet the mind. It is hand poured, hand wicked, using a soft crackling wooden wick, and gently fragranced. Each candle includes gemstone crystals that are said to help to ease stress, deepen the meditative state and dispel negative energies. Please remove the gemstones from your candle before lighting it. I've found holding the stones in my hands to be most beneficial during meditation.
Burning Instructions:
- Please make sure your wick is trimmed to 1/8". Wick trimmers are good, nail clippers work great in a pinch.
- Do NOT burn candle for any longer than 4 hours at any given time.
- Please place candle on a heat resistant surface and NEVER leave unattended.
- Please keep out of reach of children and pets.
Please note that the tins and gemstones used in your candle may vary from the picture below.
I was increasingly frustrated that the ingredients in my favorite body products were not only unpronounceable and unrecognizable, but also questionable as to if they were good for my body.
I started making body butters using simple, recognizable ingredients for myself and ended up making them as gifts as well.
I run a successful boutique business and love working with customers to create one-of-a-kind, custom products and gifts that are made with love and intention and filled with the peace and serenity of the mountains.
“I make my soaps in small batches, which allows me to oversee every tiny detail of production and put out high-quality products that you can not only feel good about using but that also leave your skin feeling amazing.”
Solitude Soapworks studio is situated on the back part of our homestead, overlooking flower gardens, forests, and the majestic high peaks.
It blends in as only an Adirondack Camp cabin can with a green metal roof and dark brown siding. Very unassuming from the outside but indoors is where the magic happens. You’ll find plants, crystals, and a wall of fragrance and color—it’s a hippie’s paradise, and there is always music playing. (It keeps the gremlins away.)
Our soaps are formulated to be gentle for all skin types, using only the highest quality plant-based butters and oils we can source, and our leave-on body products are made with organic ingredients wherever possible.
