why I started this business
This brand was born from lived experience — and lineage.
Some of my earliest memories are of watching my Chinese grandfather sit quietly on a simple pillow, playing the Chinese flute in a deeply meditative state. The room would grow still around him. It wasn’t performative. It was presence.
On my Native American side, I watched my aunts and uncles use rituals of sage and herbs for grounding and clarity and many went on vision quests - spending days alone on top of a mountain in prayer and reflection— practices rooted in intention, respect, and connection to the natural world. At the time, I didn’t have language for what I was seeing. Later, I understood it as discipline, devotion, and a relationship with stillness.
Ritual, I learned early, is not decorative. It is stabilizing.
Years later, as I navigated a fast-paced career in entertainment, starting my own creative and marketing firm, and raising a child -mindfulness became more than a philosophy — it became how I stayed grounded and focused.
My own journey led me to various mindfulness techniques, modalities, teachers, and practices — including Vipassana meditation (a 10 day silent meditation practice rooted in awareness), Aruveyda (ancient holistic system of medicine), energy and breath work. I did my 200 hr yoga teacher training and even taught classes on the weekend as a hobby.
But more than the retreats or the trainings, it has been the daily, consistent practice — sitting, breathing, returning — that has been the true foundation.
Aromatherapy, candles, ritual and creativity is a natural intersection of everything I value — heritage, discipline, creativity, and sensory grounding. A flame as an anchor. Scent as a signal to return.
Each candle is hand-poured in small batches using coconut soy wax and 100% pure essential oils, crafted with care and intention. Every blend is designed to support a daily ritual — to help you begin with clarity and close with calm.
I’m finding joy in the idea of sharing these practices and my candle-making hobby with you. Hoping you find much inspiration, peace, and clarity!
