How to Light Up Your Home for Joy
Do you love the winter holiday season or does this time of year
cause you stress? One way to lower your holiday stress, using
fewer decorations, decreases your "just have to much to do" list.
However, you still want to display Christmas candles because
these decorations bring smiles to you and your loved ones. As
days grow shorter and cooler and the suns sets earlier, people
naturally crave the warmth and comfort of light, especially
natural sources such as a bonfire or the flame of a Christmas
candle.
Christmas Candle Tips

shoveling all that sand.
Window Candles Many cultural holiday traditions include placing
a lighted candle in front windows to be seen from the outside.
Pamper yourself. Place a candle in any dark window at night.
Rather than peering into a dark void, you'll focus on the
cheerful flame and feel comforted and uplifted.
Gift Yourself Create a nightly quiet ritual for yourself in a
quiet place away from distractions and the hustle of the
holidays. Place candles around your bathtub and unwind, or by
your favorite reading chair and instead of reading sit in the
quiet and reflect upon the brightness of a single candlelight.
Listen to quiet music or simply enjoy the peace and stillness.
Ponder the joys in your life and express gratitude. This quiet
time may be your most treasured gift to yourself.

punch a hole in
the center, and slide a taper candle half-way through the hole.
Gather your friends and family around the piano or hearth and
sing familiar Christmas carols as each person holds their own
candlelight. Pause to reflect upon the fact that each individual
brings their own special light to the world and recognize the
common spiritual light in each of us.
Candle Night-Night When it's time to settle the children down to
bed on Christmas Eve, calm them with a soothing candlelight
ritual. My daughter's children walk to bed, each carefully
carrying a lighted candle through a dark hallway, singing
"Silent Night."
Happy Holidays!
