Have you ever wished you could take a moment to just unwind from the stress of a busy day? Sometimes it's the little things that can bring refreshing moments into your life. First of all, it's taking time for you. We all need some "me-time"

The first rule to a bubble bath is to make sure there are no interruptions. After the kids are all tucked away and you instruct your spouse or roommate not to disturb you. Take a couple of minutes to set up candles around the tub, and on the counter or the sink. Richly scented candles definitely help set the mood. Turn off the lights, slip into the bubbles, and let the soothing, flickering light from the candles melt away the stress. As the warm scent of essential oils and herbs surround and envelope you. Relax your mind and body and let the arroma of the candles guide you into oblivion.

The second way to relax with candles is to add them to your romantic evening. Is it possible that a scent can make you more mellow and increase dramatically the relations between you and your mate?

Thousands of people have discovered the powerful benefits of aromatherapy. And you can do it to!

Aromatherapy is the art and practice of using essential oils extracted from aromatic plants and herbs to restore or enhance health, beauty, and well being.

Richly scented candles often stimulate the emotional part of the brain. Candles are a warm light that adds that special touch to a romantic dinner or the bedroom while being intimate with your lover.

In a recent survey, it was revealed that 35% of americans agree that a romantic candlelight dinner-for-two is the best way to "get in the mood".

There is just something about candlelight and a delicious home cooked meal that inspire lovers. There is a logical explanation for a scent's powerful effect on romantic feelings. Richly scented candles stimulate the limbic system in the brain. That is the same area that produces sexual desire.

So go ahead, set the mood with candles, and take note of how the dancing light can make you feel. Even the simplest lighting effects the mood and the moment.

The third way to relax with richly scented candles is during the holidays. No holiday table would be complete without the warm glow of candles. From the dining room to the kitchen and the family room to the guest room, candles can help to set the mood for your holiday festivities.

With the fast pace of the holiday season, with all the shopping, wrapping of gifts, parties and family gatherings, we sometimes find ourselves unable to unwind. I have found that nothing is more soothing after a hectic afternoon than an evening of soft candlelight. Scented Christmas candles typically spark a memory of the holidays.

Discover the possibilities for any season or occasion. Try relaxing with richly scented candles. Whether to unwind from a hard day, set a romantic mood, or relax during the hectic holidays.

Richly scented candles are the only way to go!
