We all love putting on candles to help us relax and unwind, right? Now imagine if that candle could also help to ensure you get a great nights sleep. The sleep aid experts at Echor have developed just that. Our Scented Aromatherapy Candle is packed with 100% pure essential oils that have been proven to reduce stress hormones (serum cortisol), reduce blood pressure and lower heart rate. As the essential oils release their scents into the room, they quickly activate your limbic system giving multiple benefits that can ensure a deeper and more restful sleep. Specifically, the pure essential oils we use are Lavender, Ylang Ylang, Geranium, Sweet Orange and Lavandin. In this complex oil blend, the Lavender Oil (made using steam distillation methods) has been found to increase the amount of slow-wave and deep-wave sleep allowing you to wake up with more energy the following morning. Our floral Ylang Ylang oil truly is one of natures marvels. It has shown in clinical studies to lower stress and anxiety levels which can lead to all kinds of sleep disorders. Do you (or a little somebody you know) snore at night? We incorporated Geranium into our blend which, along with its proven ability to reduce anxiety, it also has natural anti-inflammatory properties and may help to reduce snoring caused by sinusitis. Relief! 100% natural and Vegan! Along with all our ingredients, you can also rest assured that our wax is 100% natural, organic and vegan. We use soy wax which is a vegetable wax made from the oil of soybeans and all the left-over bean husks are not wasted but rather used as animal feed. What are the benefits of soy wax? Soy is a renewable source that burns clean and it doesnt release toxins, carcinogens or pollutants. All our candles are hand poured in the UK into our premium glass jars and sealed with a wooden lid, making them the perfect gifts for women or men.
