A simple creation, it boasts this thought in the form of a word or phrase on the outside as a constant reminder while a person uses it to meditate. Created by Alchemy Apothecary, a Los Angeles-based startup founded by Jazmine May Graza, the meditation candle goes one step further. Once, the [hand-poured soy wax](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpoured-candle) burns down, another mantra is found inside. This one is meant to be passed onto another person to spread the message and spirit carried by the meditation candle. Each of them come with a downloadable guided meditation. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Mantra Candles:** Using mantra candles helps people focus on a single thought or message during meditation. - **Personalized Meditation:** Creating personalized mantras for customers could increase engagement and create a more customized meditation experience. - **Sustainable Meditation:** Creating candles out of eco-friendly materials would appeal to consumers who are both environmentally conscious and interested in meditation. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Wellness:** Wellness companies could expand their product line to include personalized mantra candles for meditation. - **E-commerce:** An e-commerce platform could be created to allow customers to create personalized mantra candles and have them shipped directly to their homes. - **Luxury:** Positioning mantra candles as a luxury item with high-quality ingredients and unique designs could attract high-end consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multi-Sensory Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumin-candles.md) - [Self-Care Reminder Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/me-time-candle.md) - [Mindful Candle Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindful-candle.md) - [Sleep-Inspired Candle Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepinspired-candle.md) - [Wealth Manifesting Limited Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manifest-money.md) - [Affirming Candle Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/affirming-candle.md) - [Stunning One-of-a-Kind Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oneofakind-candle.md) - [Mexican Aromatherapy Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/santu-beauty-candles.md) - [Science-Backed Premium Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caftari.md)
