The Power of Scent: How Candles Help You Sleep Better

If you struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep, you're not alone. Millions of people experience restlessness at night—but there's a simple, natural way to wind down: candles infused with essential oils.
At High Candles, we believe scent is a powerful tool for setting the tone of your space. Our sleep-focused candles are crafted with calming oils like:
-
Lavender (Linalool) – reduces stress and signals the brain it’s time to sleep
-
Vetiver – helps relax the nervous system and quiet mental chatter
-
Ylang Ylang – lowers heart rate and supports emotional balance
These oils are rich in terpenes, plant-based compounds known to affect mood and relaxation.
Lighting a High Candle 30 minutes before bed can become a soothing ritual—no blue light, no side effects, just peace and scent.
Tips for a Better Sleep Routine with Candles
