The next time you light a candle, put a little power behind it. As you are about to light the candle, take a moment and state an intention. Say a little prayer, ask for world peace, offer your blessing to someone who needs it or send light to people you know.
So often we use candles to celebrate– birthdays, holidays, religious rituals. Sometimes we light them just for aesthetics and scent, but the act of lighting a candle can be a powerful one. You can use candle lighting as your own private moment to bring energy to yourself or send it to others. The flame of a candle reminds me of the “three-fold flame,” called upon for protection during meditation and other spiritual practices. You can focus on the flame and ask for protection throughout your physical, mental and emotional bodies, or in other words, throughout all aspects of yourself. You can also use candle lighting to honor someone– we use it on birthdays, right! Perhaps there’s a friend or loved one who needs support, you can light your candle and ask that help is sent their way. The act of lighting the candle can also be used to honor someone we have lost.
There’s many candles being made today for specific purposes. Aromatherapy candles are really saturating the marketplace, but check the quality of your candle before buying. Look for manufactures that use essential oils and lead-free wicks. Rapunzel Gifts offers aromatherapy pillar candles and votives that are made right here in the U.S. with high quality ingredients. Our collection www.rapunzelgifts.com/candle includes scents of lavender, sage, rosemary, peppermint, cinnamon, mandarin orange and more. There’s also Herbal Magic Reiki Charged Affirmation candles that come with inspirational affirmations in essential oil scents matched to the intention, www.rapunzelgifts.com/cjhm.
For fun, check out the Gossip Stop and Come To Me candles. These fun and powerful candles are what’s called Hoo Doo, urban magic for urban folk. They come specially blended with instructions on how to use them.
So the next time you’re lighting candles for the table or home, remember to pause for just a moment. Let that light into your heart and then send it back out to those who need it.

What is good karma? Are those old sayings true; “What goes around, comes around,” “You only get back what you give.” “The energy you put out is what comes back to you.” It’s a mystery how it all works, but somehow things always have a way of balancing out. When we are victims of cruelty or insult, do we think “it will come back to him (her).” Do we say to ourselves that our god or the universe will correct the situation? So here’s a question, does that correction really happen or is it something to have to believe so we don’t become discouraged. If we wish for the correction or balance does that mean we are wishing harm on others?
The Dalai Lama says in his teachings, “We should avoid even the smallest negative actions, and we should perform even the most insignificant positive actions without underestimating their value. The reason for this is that the happiness we all want and the sufffering we all try to avoid are produced precisely by our actions, or karma.” What are your thoughts on karma? Have you had an experience in your life in which you believe karma was at play?
If you want to send some good karma to a friend or loved one check out our new Good Karma Gift Box http://www.rapunzelgifts.com/karma.html. This fun-filled box contains a karma blessing kit, a karma violation ticket book and a parking fairy for the car, to help decrease road rage and increase parking karma.

Salt lamps have been popping-up in catalogues and stores as one of the hottest holistic trends. The soft light they emit makes them a beautiful accent in any room, plus you get the added benefit that they naturally ionize the air. Every time one of our Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps gets sent to family or friends, we always get a follow-up report on their use. The latest word is from a physical therapist who has been using our salt lamps during her sessions with patients. She says she finds the lamps very soothing. She likes the fact that the natural salt ionizes the air and she also feels the lamp helps balance the energy of the patient. Why not– the lamp’s particles are charged.
These lamps are also great additions anywhere you have a computer, TV or other electronics. They help clean-up electro-magnetic pollution.
One friend of mine didn’t seem too interested in the healing effects of the lamps. He just thought they looked great illuminating his restored Victorian era fireplace. Really, no matter where you put these lamps, they create a healthy, warm and cozy environment.
If you’re shopping for a salt lamp, start here: www.rapunzelgifts.com/slamp. Our lamps are sturdy with a solid wood base. They come with an easy change bulb assembly and a UL approved cord. Best of all, we stand behind them.
If you’ve bought one of our lamps, we’d like to hear from you. Does it help put the baby to sleep, clear up your allergies or just make the room look great? We want to know.

I first found out about Buddha Boards from my seven year old niece. She got one for her birthday and was just enthralled with it. So what is a Buddha Board you ask? It’s a blank palate based on the Zen concept of living in the moment. The board, made of rice paper comes with a brush. Simply wet the brush and draw your inspiration, your message, your thoughts. Your art will slowly evaporate and you are left with a clean slate.
Buddha Boards are not only great for kids, but for anyone who appreciates the concept of living in the present and enjoying each moment. If you’re shopping on our site www.RapunzelGifts.com you can combine the board with other Buddha and peaceful themed products, like statues, incense and candles for a unique gift basket.
You can find The Original Buddha Board at www.RapunzelGifts.com/bboard.
