It’s such a miracle and it never ceases to amaze me.
Beeswax, the humble little beeswax candle stands like an angel or a sentinel in a room and burns as a natural air purifier. “How so?” you may say. Good point. Why buy artificial air purifiers with artificial and many times dangerous chemical scents (see my blog: Why you shouldn’t be using anything but pure beeswax candles) Its amazing to see these air purifiers in the homes for friends that try to look after their health and even use only non genetically modified and organic foods. I go to their washroom and see a chemically based air “freshener” y’mean polluter! I suppose I’m not the life of a dinner party when I come out and give the host a lecture about the evils of chemically based air “fresheners” but hey…what are friends for?
Why not just light up a humble little beeswax candle – or 3?
Cleaning the air by burning pure beeswax
Back to school and FYI (and I think you should be)… do you know that the air contains billions of electrically charged particles called ions (No not Jeremy ‘Irons’ the actor – who I used to see in the caf on the corner of 11th and 6th in Greenwich village NY – ions! – thought I’d add that haha – ok!?) So anyhow, ions are important because they impact on our ability to absorb and utilize oxygen – well that’s not important, without oxygen, we well – die. A cheerful thought, but seriously it affects our wellbeing and many studies have been carried out on the capacity of ions to make us feel ‘bad’ or ‘good’. There is a reversal of meanings here that is important to understand,
Negative ions are good for us and make us feel good
Positive ions are not good for us and do not make us feel that great.
Why?
Positive ions attach themselves to pollution, pollen, toxins, allergens and stay suspended in the air for you to breathe in. The amazing thing about negative ions is that they remove the pollution etc from the positive ions allowing them to drop harmlessly to the ground, away from your lungs and body. A miracle? Yes. And what’s more miraculous is that beeswax is the only fuel that actually produces negative ions.
I’ll say it again
Miracle? Yes. Beeswax is the only fuel that actually produces negative ions. This assists removal of pollution from the air – increasing the balance of negative to positive ions (remember in this case negative = good) and creating the ideal environment for clean air
Make sure to only use 100% yellow unbleached pure beeswax, like we sell at Beelights. Each one is a gift to the planet and also helps clean the pollution in this world, your home, your neighbourhood
If you care you can’t use any other candle but pure beeswax
Thats the buzz for now
Bee happy
