You Deserve Five Minutes That Aren't About Everyone Else

She sits at her kitchen table on a December evening, shoulders tight, mind racing through tomorrow's obligations. The holiday season has turned her into a logistics manager for everyone else's joy while her own nervous system screams for a break. She lights the Merry + Bright candle and lets the crisp Northern Fir clear her head, the Sweet Clementine lift the weight off her chest, and the Warm Clove ground her back into her body—five minutes of pure botanical relief that reminds her she's allowed to stop. Give yourself permission to sit down, light this hand-poured soy candle with pure essential oils, and breathe while the world waits.

How to Use

  • Light it during chaotic holiday prep or quiet winter nights when you need to remember you're human, not a productivity machine.
  • This 8 oz candle provides 40-50 hours of burn-time.
