One of my favorite quotes is a quote of a quote in
Transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau’s Walden, a writing he found on
the bathtub of King Tchingthang, which Thoreau describes, " ‘Renew
thyself completely each day; do it again, and again, and forever
again.’ I can understand that. Morning brings back the heroic ages.” I
agree, to wake up early, enjoy the dawn, and have a productive morning
is some of my finest time. And there are little things that bring the
beauty and productivity into fruition, little things that I don’t take
lightly - like the encompassing power os something as simple as a
candle.

Having the perfect scent can completely vitalize my
day, and studies have proven this. It is now known that certain scents
physiologically help create moods, citrus scents rejuvenate and create
energy, lavender scents are calming, and so forth. And then there’s the
primordial magic of the flickering flame, and poetry in certain scent
combinations. So what do I renew myself with? Thai Market.

The Thai Market candle from Illuminations completely
invigorates my morning, probably due to the citrus element: lemongrass.
The candle also contains the scents of sweet litchee, basil, aromatic
cardamom, and creamy coconut milk. This combination is like a master
recipe - a work of art. The soothing coconut balances with the crisp
lemongrass and the other scents add a touch of enchantment. They
conjure up Asian secrets and always leave me inspired. Citrus is also
known to leave a clean feeling, partly because some citrus fruits like
lemon are used as cleaning items. Not only does it smell clean, but
this candle inspires cleaning! The energy, the crisp cleanliness,
perfect for tidying up in the morning.

When the work is done, it leaves me inspired, I’m more
likely to play music or write or do something I really enjoy with this
little touch. It’s these little things that can really enhance a day
and shouldn’t be taken for granted. Your environment is important to
your life, and a clean, aesthetically pleasing one will surely give you
the happiness and energy to accomplish more than you normally would. So
find a scent that really appeals to you, and if the scents of the Thai
Market candle appeal to you, I’d highly recommend trying it out.
