Breathe Easy, Breathe Deep: Using EC3 Air Purifying Candles During Yoga and Meditation
Jul 24th 2024
Imagine this: you've unrolled your yoga mat, dimmed the lights, and put on some calming music. You're ready to begin your yoga practice, a time for deep breathing, mindful movement, and inner peace.
But something feels off.
The air seems heavy, and a faint musty smell lingers in the background. This can disrupt the serenity of your practice and leave you feeling less than zen.
This is where EC3 Air Purifying candles can become a powerful tool for enhancing your yoga and meditation sessions.
The Importance of Clean Air for Yoga and Meditation
Yoga and meditation are practices that focus on connecting your mind, body, and spirit. Clean, mold-free air is crucial for this connection.
When pollutants like dust, allergens, or mold spores are present, breathing deeply and comfortably can be more difficult. Over time, this can lead to coughing, sneezing, and difficulty concentrating – obstacles on your path to a peaceful practice.
Our air purifying candles offer a natural and effective solution. These candles are made with soy wax (we also have a beeswax option if soy is a no-go) and natural botanical ingredients.
As the candle burns, the heat releases these botanicals into the air. Some of these botanicals, like citrus seed extracts, have natural antifungal and antimicrobial properties.
This can help to naturally reduce mold spores and other airborne contaminants, creating a cleaner and more breathable environment for your practice.
Benefits of Air Purifying Candles for Yoga and Meditation
Here's how air purifying candles can specifically enhance your yoga and meditation sessions:
- Improved Air Quality: As mentioned earlier, air purifying candles can help reduce allergens and other irritants in the air. This can lead to easier breathing and a more comfortable practice.
- Enhanced Focus: Clean air can improve your concentration and focus during meditation. When you're not battling a stuffy nose or itchy eyes, you can delve deeper into your practice.
- Promotes Relaxation: The natural botanicals can also have calming and relaxing properties. In addition, the candles contain no perfumes or essential oils, so the absence of a distracting, strong scent can help to ease anxiety and create a more peaceful atmosphere for your practice.
- Sets the Mood: The gentle flickering light of a candle can add a touch of ambiance to your yoga or meditation space.
Choosing the Right Air Purifying Candle for Your Yoga Practice
Not all air purifying candles are created equal. Here are some factors to consider:
- Ingredients: Look for candles made with natural wax with added parabens or oils and botanical ingredients. Avoid those with added fragrances or chemicals, which can irritate sensitive airways.
- Scents: Some people find certain scents calming and relaxing, while others find them distracting. Choose a candle with a light, natural scent (our beeswax candles have a very light honey scent), or one that is unscented altogether.
- Size and Burn Time: Consider the size of your yoga or meditation space and choose a candle that is appropriately sized. Look for candles with a long burn time to ensure it lasts throughout your entire practice.
We offer EC3 Air Purification Candles made with soy or beeswax, both great options for yoga and meditation practitioners. These candles are not only designed to reduce mold counts and airborne contaminants, but contain no added fragrances, making them ideal for those with sensitivities.
Creating a Tranquil Space with Air Purifying Candles
Your yoga or meditation practice is a journey inward, a chance to connect with your mind, body, and spirit. But finding that inner peace can be challenging if your surroundings are cluttered, noisy, or visually stimulating. This is where creating a dedicated yoga or meditation sanctuary at home becomes crucial.
An ideal sanctuary is a space designed to promote relaxation and mindfulness. Here are some tips for using air purifying candles to enhance and complement other elements in your yoga or meditation space:
- Light the candle at least 15-20 minutes before your practice begins. This allows the botanicals to be released into the air and create a cleaner environment.
- Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects.
- Embrace the Power of Plants: Houseplants not only add a touch of nature to your space but also act as natural air purifiers. Certain plants, like snake plants or peace lilies, are known for their ability to absorb toxins and improve indoor air quality. These can work synergistically with air purifying candles to create a cleaner and more breathable environment.
- Calming Color Therapy: The colors in your environment can significantly impact your mood. Opt for calming color palettes when decorating your yoga or meditation space. Soft blues, greens, and neutrals promote feelings of tranquility and relaxation. These colors will complement the gentle flickering light and natural scents emitted by your air purifying candles, creating a truly serene atmosphere.
- Dim the lights or turn them off completely. This will create a more calming atmosphere and allow you to focus on your breath and movements.
- Set an intention for your practice. What do you hope to achieve through your yoga or meditation session? Focusing on your intention can help you stay present and mindful.
- Breathe deeply and slowly throughout your practice. Clean air will allow you to breathe more comfortably and deeply, enhancing your experience.

By incorporating air purifying candles into your yoga and meditation routine, you can create a cleaner, more breathable environment that promotes relaxation and focus.
