Which have you tried?

For meditation, I love using real candles because of the soft flicker and natural warmth. A while back, I switched to unscented beeswax candles since they burn clean and have this subtle honey-like smell that’s really soothing. Sometimes, I’ll pair them with an incense burner to add another layer of calm—there’s something about watching the smoke swirl that helps me focus.

For meditation, I use soy candles scented with lavender, sandalwood, or frankincense. I also like unscented beeswax candles for a clean, natural burn, and pillar or votive candles for a steady, calming flame. An Australian bush candle is also wonderful, offering earthy, grounding scents that enhance focus and relaxation. Essential oil–infused candles with eucalyptus, chamomile, or sage are great for meditation and creating a peaceful atmosphere.
