Ear Candles & Relaxation — OR– How to Beat Stress in 10 Minutes or Less!
By Ron Trujillo
Spring is about new beginnings, from blooming flowers to planting gardens. Because spring is also a season for rebirth, the season is also filled with a lot of stress for many people. From college students cramming for finals to families with younger kids whose parents are planning – and paying – for that much-needed summer vacation for the family, everyone needs a break! While vacations sound great, what can you do in the meantime to decrease the stress in your life?
Take a few moments and try a new, easy, fast and very affordable way to relax and de-stress: ear candling.
It’s been around for decades but has been increasing in popularity in the past few years. Even a New York Times contributor wrote about her experience with ear candling:
“The best part is probably the sound of the burning candle heard through the tube: a steady, soothing hiss punctuated by satisfying little pops. Whatever’s going on in there — and the evidence points to not much — it sure sounds nice. As the candle burns down, smoke from the smoldering gauze gathers in the tube, gently warming your ear.” Kathryn Jezer-Morton, writer, New York Times.

What does ear candling come from? What countries or cultures have used it?
The practice has been around for centuries with origins in ancient China, Egypt, and India.
Ear Candles are used to relax, melt away stress and daily frustrations.
Here’s a video on ear candling!
In less than 10 minutes, you can go from stressed to relaxed with just one ear candle
Those who haven’t tried ear candling have many questions, and we have the answers, including the misleading idea that ear candles remove wax. Ear candles just help you relax, much like a massage – but faster and less expensive.

IMPORTANT Information on Ear Candling:
–Prior to Ear Candling make sure to read and understand all instructions and safety warnings that come with the candles.
–Have a friend or family member help you ear candle. It’s more relaxing this way.
–Start by laying a damp towel over the head and neck of the person to be candled in order to protect from any accidental ash dropping.
–Light the larger “Easy to Light” end and hold the smaller thinner end to the ear so the tip of the candle rests just inside the ear canal. Wally’s Natural candles feature a “No-Drip-Filter” for the consumer’s safety.
–Trim the ash or burnt part of the candle approximately every inch or so as the candle burns. Make sure the trimmings go into the bowl of water to ensure they are extinguished immediately.
–Do not burn the candle further than the suggested burn line (the candle should not be shorter than 4 inches in length)
–If you reach that burn line point or want to extinguish the candle prior to reaching that point, dunk the entire candle, burning end first, into the bowl of water so it is completely submerged.
