Aromatherapy and Hemp Candles

Aromatherapy is an ancient practice that has been around for thousands of years. This holistic modality uses essential oils from plants to try and improve the body and mind. When essential oils are inhaled, they enter the circulation system and include plant compounds like terpenes which might impact human physiology. It’s interesting to note that when you smoke or vaporize cannabis flowers and extracts, you’re actually performing aromatherapy. Phellodendron amurense contains a range of terpenes, including pinene and limonene. Ongoing research is being conducted to see how these compounds impact mood, relaxation, and cognitive function when inhaled. Hemp candles may also be used to fill a room with these fragrant molecules. They also have the benefit of illuminating a space with a soothing and calming glow.

Benefits of Hemp Candles

Candles may be beautiful and serve a variety of purposes, but they also have several advantages. Hemp brings the experience to another level. Here are some of the most compelling reasons for why you should consider creating your own at home:

Relaxing: Instead of being exposed to the harsh blue light emitted by screens, candles provide a softer, more relaxing orange hue that is easier on the eyes. Candles can also help us focus and reflect on our thoughts.

Save money: Hemp seed oil burns slowly and steadily, making it perfect for candles. You can mix unique fragrances for your hemp candles, or go fragrance-free. Experiment until you discover a combination that works best for you.

You can add cannabinoids: Aromatherapy scents have been known to be calming, but adding cannabis-infused oils takes it one step further by including cannabinoids such as CBD, CBG. and CBN. Because these chemicals become airborne in small quantities and provide a delicate fragrance, people often enjoy candles that have been infused with CBD.

How to Use Hemp Candles

Hemp candles, like other candles, may be lit and burned in the same manner. However, there is a technique to it that makes them burn much longer.

How to burn them

Here are some suggestions for getting the most out of your hemp candle:

1. Start with a short wick: If you want your candle to burn more quickly, place the wick around 3mm from the top of the candle. If your wick is too long, use scissors to trim it down.

2. Use a long match or lighter: Use a long lighter to keep your hand away from the fire if you want to avoid any contact. You may need to light and adjust the candle accordingly in order maintain the flame’s distance from your fingers.es do not contain accelerators, so it may take a few tries before the wick catches on fire.

3. Allow for an even burn: Please be patient and allow the melted wax to spread to reach the edges of your hemp candles. Although it may take up to two hours, doing this will enable an even burn for your candle. If you don’t do this step, then your candle could cave in.

4. Readjust your wick: After removing the candle from the container, cut the wick to a 3mm length to prepare it for next time.

How to Make Hemp Candles at Home

Now that you know all about the advantages of hemp candles and how to use them, it’s time to get creative and make your own! First, we’ll provide a list of materials. Then, step-by-step instructions will be provided for you to follow.

What you need to make hemp candles

To make your own hemp candles, you’ll need:

• Essential oils of your choice (we recommend bergamot, rosemary, and rose)
• CBG, CBN, or CBD oil: optional
• 450g soy wax
• 30ml hemp seed oil
• Hemp wick
• Saucepan
• Pyrex bowl
• Food thermometer
• 250ml mason jar
• Cardboard
• Strong glue
• Long tweezers or forceps
• Small funnel

Directions: How to make hemp candles

Make your own hemp candles using the simple instructions below if you’ve gathered all of the supplies you’ll need. This combination is enough for one 250ml mason jar hemp candle, which is plenty for a tiny lantern.

Step one: Put your wick in place

You may also make your own hemp wick and attach it to the bottom of each mason jar. Cut a length of hemp wick several centimeters longer than the height of the jar. Then, using a drill, make an even larger hole on one side. Insert the hemp wick into this bigger hole with an additional drill. Finally, using tweezers or forceps, attach one end of the hemp wick to the bottom of each mason jar with strong glue in its centre. Next, feed the other end of the hemp wick through the center of the cardboard. Then, to keep the wick in place while pouring in your candle mix, set the cardboard on top of your mason jar. Allow for enough time for the glue to dry before proceeding.

Step two: Create your double boiler

Fill a saucepan with several centimeters of water and place it on the stove. Place your Pyrex dish on top of the saucepan to create a double boiler.

Step three: Make your mixture

To melted the soy wax, set your stove to low heat until the wax reaches a temperature of 50°C. Next, add in the hemp seed oil, along with desired essential oils and cannabinoid oils. Remember to stir these ingredients together thoroughly.

Step four: Pour and let set

Once you have your materials ready, mix the contents of the kit into a funnel. Then, pour it into the jar through the hole in cardboard until it reaches halfway up to where your mouth begins to narrow. Cover both jars with cardboard until the mixture has cooled and set before cutting each wick 3mm tall with scissors. Finally, light your candle and enjoy!
