10 Reasons Why Candle Wax Melts are Perfect for Winter ​

10 Reasons Why Candle Wax Melts are Perfect for Winter

Is there anything more comforting than getting home from a long day and being able to relax? 

Smell is one of the greatest self-care methods that you can enjoy. It is often over looked when it comes to self-care but it is one that can have a great impact upon your mental health. 

We can link smell to memories due to the direct route that it takes to the limbic system in our brains. It alters our nervous system to tell it whether we are safe or in danger.

Think about  if you smelt smoke in the kitchen, you immediately know that it isn’t safe and go into a state of ‘overdrive’ where your sympathetic nervous system kicks in. You enter the a state of acute stress as you sense a threat. 

The same can be done to help you relax and unwind. Smells can also stimulate the Parasympathetic Nervous System (the rest and digest system) and this can play a vital role in winter wellness.

 

This is why we believe candle wax melts are perfect for winter. They can quickly change an environment. They can quickly help you relax and switch off. Candle Wax Melts are great for winter as they are affordable, strong smelling and long lasting.

Candle Wax Melts Help You Relax

Scent is personal. We can link scent to memories, which is why can either love or hate a scent.

Scent can be used as a way to express yourself and the things that you love. For example, if you love fresh uplifting sweet aromas our Pixie candle melts is certainly worth checking out. However, if you are after a deep aroma then Alien candle melts are worth considering.

Watching the tealight flame flicker away is very peaceful and relaxing. Its warmth and glow on a dark winter’s night is the perfect way to create a relaxing and comfortable room.

Candle Wax Melts help you to enjoy the space you are in

Aromas can have a profound affect upon how you feel. Some aromas that you like can make you feel good, where as the ones that you dislike can make you feel bad.

Think about the last time that you walked past a bad smell, did you walk past it fast to get away from it?

When you are around a smell that you enjoy, you are much more likely to relax and enjoy being in that space.

Think about how much time you will be spending t home during winter and look to make easy self-care easy this winter through making small and easy adjustments such as using candle wax melts, candles, taking baths etc.

We have produced a ’10 ways to take care of yourself guide this winter’ for you to check out.

Wax Melts are Easy to use and tidy up

One of the many great things about candle wax melts is that they are easy to use and easy to tidy up.

Simply grab a wax melt burner (tealights or electric), grab some tealights and a heat source if using a tealight burner, choose your candle wax melts and snap two squares off and enjoy!

The tidy up isn’t painful either. When the aroma from your candle wax melts has gone, simply let the wax cool and scoop into the bin. At Soapfullness we use soy wax, which is soft and easy to remove.

Please note that we strongly advice against putting your wax melt burner in the freezer as this is likely to cause stress fractures and make your wax burner dangerous to use (please do not use if your wax burner has any fractures).
