The candles are handmade in Indonesia from 100% palm wax – a natural material from a rapidly renewable source, the fruit of the oil palm. Making palm wax is similar to producing essential oils – the oil is pressed and distilled. The same oil is used in many high-quality hand creams, shampoos and other cosmetics. It is a pure, GMO-free, practically food-grade raw material. Palm wax candles release no harmful toxins or soot when burning and burn down cleanly. The wax blend contains no paraffin, lead or zinc, and all wicks are made of pure cotton. The product is made following Fair Trade principles, and production uses as much handwork as possible so that as many people as possible can earn a living. 80% of the candle makers are women. No animal-derived materials are used in making the candles. The candles are an eco-friendly product.

Vishuddha is the fifth chakra and is called the throat chakra.

The throat chakra gives us free, flowing speech – it is easy to express our thoughts and views, the conversation flows, and others understand what we say. Through this chakra we express ourselves and our creativity through voice, words, writing and visual art. Vishuddha governs loyalty, peacefulness, harmony, truthfulness, reliability, gentleness and kindness.

The energy of the throat chakra supports the courage to express yourself and let your voice be heard. Suppressed feelings and unspoken words can block this chakra, and then it feels as if the words are stuck in our throat. It is also strongly linked to expressing the emotions that arise from all the other chakras.

The Vishuddha chakra is located directly behind the throat, in the cervical vertebrae.

The main colour of the chakra is blue.

Of the natural elements, this chakra corresponds to ether, or space.

Of the five senses, Vishuddha governs hearing.

In traditional chakra teachings, the throat chakra is associated with the neck, throat and voice.

The "Vishuddha" scented candle contains 3% essential oils: cabbage rose (Rosa centifolia) and chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile).

Please take care!
Keep the candle out of reach of small children and away from pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Always place the candle or candle glass on a heat-resistant surface. Do not place the candle near curtains or open doors.
