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

  • Turn off overhead lights, light your candle, and breathe deeply

  • Play calming music or white noise

  • Pair the candle with a warm bath or herbal tea

  • Always extinguish the flame before falling asleep
