Beeswax emits negative ions when burned. After a thunderstorm the air smells fresh as does the air near a waterfall or by the ocean. That freshness you smell isan abundance of negative ions in the air. For centuries in Russian and Greek orthodox churches these candles have been a integral part of that meditative and environment. Negative ions clean the air by attaching themselves to positively charged particles of odors, toxins, dust and pollen. When they bind they become heavier and simply fall to the ground. To create this healthy environment in your home you could set up a waterfall, remove your roof when it rains, buy a negative ion emitter …or burnBeeswax candles! |
