Some tips for a peaceful return to school

It's back to school time! What if it's the perfect opportunity to get back on track and start the year off on the right foot?
We offer you some ideas to help you approach the start of the school year as calmly as possible.

1. Let natural light into your home

Draw the curtains, open your windows, and let the light in. It's time to enjoy the sunshine. Natural lighting is not only healthy for the environment, but also for you. Did you know that natural light reduces the production of harmful bacteria, increases the amount of vitamins B and D, improves circulation, and strengthens your immune system? Sunlight allows our brains to produce serotonin, a hormone that improves mood and relieves pain by providing energy. Sunlight also produces endorphins, otherwise known as "feel-good hormones."

Skylights are another way to bring natural light into your space. They provide balanced daylight that fills the darkest corners of a room.

2. Purify and perfume your home with natural candles

It is scientifically proven that scented candles can play a vital role in the physiological effects of mood, stress, work capacity and overall mental health.

But not all scented candles are healthy. Most candle waxes are made from paraffin, a petroleum waste product that produces highly toxic benzene and toluene when burned. A new study has found that some types of scented candles release more particulate matter than a running diesel car!

Choose natural candles made from vegetable wax, in particular our Hozho Flames , scented candles with active energies, handmade by a master wax maker, with 100% vegetable waxes and high-quality fragrances.

Experience a truly energetic experience that increases the vibrational frequency of your home. Discover our Purifying Flame, whose plant-based heart releases a refreshing olfactory signature with woody, slightly spicy notes.

3. Multiply the plants in your home

Houseplants enhance the overall look of a space, but they also have many other benefits. They have been shown to improve mood, increase creativity, reduce stress, and remove air pollutants.

Plants are essential for air purification. Certain toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene, xylene, and toluene can be inadvertently redistributed into your indoor air. Under the right conditions, air-purifying plants absorb and trap some of these toxins and release oxygen, making the air you breathe healthier.

Plants also help relieve stress. Taking care of your plants can help reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. Simply touching the leaves of your plants for 2 minutes will have a positive impact on your stress levels. So why not give it a try?

4. Focus on positive people

We often talk about “toxic people” when relationships don't work out or create painful feelings for the people involved. But who are they, and why do we accuse them of being toxic?

Some people are still on the path to healing and finding inner peace. Sometimes, the symptoms of this quest can be visible or imperceptible. They can impact your energy and the vibrational frequency of your home.

Here's a simple trick to use to assess the energetic impact of the people you spend time with: evaluate your feelings before and after an encounter. Are you more joyful and lighthearted? Or anxious, angry, or frustrated? Learn to sense the energies that the people around you evoke, which will help harmonize the energy in your home.
