Did you know that candles are so hazardous to your health? The ingredient "fragrance" is a catch-all for all kinds of toxic chemicals.
Scent concoctions can be labeled as “fragrance” or “perfume,” and the actual ingredients don't need to be disclosed because these scents are protected as "trade secrets" for the companies creating them.
What's worse? They DO NOT need to be tested for safety either!
Fragrance is an ingredient that is NOT transparent. You DO NOT KNOW what you are getting in this ingredient, and according to research done by the EWG, 75% of products that include "fragrance" as an ingredient contain chemicals called phthalates

Phthalates (pronounced “THAL ates”) are solvents often used in candles to help fragrances last longer.
As I shared earlier, up to 75% of the time, when there is "fragrance " as an ingredient, your candles have legally hidden phthalates.
Phthalates are known “endocrine system disruptors” (that means they mess with hormones!). They have been linked to birth defects, breast cancer, infertility, diabetes, obesity, autoimmune disorders, and even autism and ADHD.

But it's more than just the toxic scents! Candles and wax melts made of paraffin or soy also emit toxins when burned, which can create an unsafe atmosphere for you, your family and your pets.
Since paraffin wax is derived from petroleum, coal, or shale oil, it has been found to contain known carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) such as benzene. Soy is not a natural wax but rather is a heavy metal hydrogenated oil. 96% of soybeans grown globally are Monsanto genetically modified (GMO) soybeans. PLUS, huge amounts of pesticides and other chemicals are used in soybean farming, which may remain with the soy when processed.
Studies show that when soy and paraffin candles are burned, they release formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, toluene, benzene, and acetone –carcinogens that can lead to cancer and other health problems.

What can you use instead of candles? Diffusing real essential oils is an easy and effective way to enjoy the natural scents throughout your home. Diffusers disperse essential oils as fine vapor into the air, which can then be absorbed into the body.
A diffuser has a well for water, where you then add a few drops of essential oil. I recommend starting with 2-3 drops of your desired essential oil. The water and essential oil molecules diffused into the air will clean and purify the air while scenting your home naturally. Diffusers also act as humidifiers by adding moisture to the air.

Let’s talk chemistry for a minute! A main constituent of many essential oils is phenols, which clean and repair the damaged receptor sites on our cells. Receptor sites help our cells to know what to do, which keeps our bodies functioning properly.
Negative or fear-based emotions damage these receptor sites on your cells. Chemical toxins (processed foods, GMOs, smoking, multiple beauty products) also block these receptor sites. When these receptor sites are blocked, our cells don't get the information they need, which is how disease can take hold in the body.
Another constituent of essential oils is sesquiterpenes, which bring oxygen to the brain, helping the emotion-processing center breathe and DO WORK. The key part of this center is the limbic system, referred to as "the emotional brain." Within the limbic system is the amygdala, where we process and store our emotions.
Essential oils are WAY more than just cleaner scents!

The limbic system is directly connected to the part of your brain that controls heart rate, blood pressure, memory, stress levels, and hormones.
Of our 5 senses, SMELL is the only one that activates the limbic system where our amygdala lives! This is the reason smells trigger memories and then, in turn, trigger certain emotions!
And you know what all-natural substances have great smells? Essential oils, of course!I use essential oils to create an atmosphere of peace, warmth, and relaxation in my home. Using the same oils during your routines will help trigger your brain to associate that time of day with rest, positivity, alertness–whatever you want to create in your home.
You can diffuse or breathe in oils to process your emotions in a healthy way. Get those diffusers going! Fill the room with positive, happy, relaxing scents!
