The Sensory Profile:
Scent Profile: Oatmeal and Warm Honey. Raw honey, crushed almond and cardamom over creamy coconut, peach and cinnamon leaf, settling into fresh oatmeal, vanilla bean and sugar cane.
The Intent: Designed to act as a tether to safety, using a familiar, comforting gourmand scent to evoke a sense of being held. This scent is designed to accompany a self-compassion practice, offering a sensory cue as your body learns to associate softening with safety.
The Somatic Difference: TETHER™ is built around associative conditioning: the principle by which repeatedly pairing a scent with a practice creates a learned cue over time. Fragrance oil is blended into the wax at 185°F (85°C), a controlled step designed to help the wax and fragrance bind and cure properly while preserving the scent. Because the olfactory system has a direct anatomical pathway to the limbic system, the brain’s centre for emotion and memory, this scent is designed to accompany the self-compassion practice included with each candle. With consistent use, the scent can become a cue for softening.
Features:
Founder-Formulated: Created by a therapist in training, drawing on the neurobiology of scent, associative learning, and somatic self-care.
Research-Informed Principles: Rooted in research on the olfactory-limbic pathway, associative conditioning, and self-compassion-based somatic practice.
Small-Batch Poured: Hand-poured in Canada with an all-soy wax base and premium fragrance oil. Only 12 jars are created per batch to ensure artisanal quality and precision.
Wellness Accounts: Some LSA or Wellness Account plans cover holistic self-care purchases. Check with your provider.
