Heart Chakra – Open Yourself to Love (Anahata)


The Heart Chakra, or Anahata, is the center of love, compassion, and connection. When this chakra is balanced, you feel open, supported, and able to give and receive love with ease. When it’s out of balance, you may feel guarded, disconnected, or weighed down by old hurts.

Our Heart Chakra Candle is created to gently soften those edges – inviting in tenderness, forgiveness, and warmth, both for yourself and the people you care about.

Fragrance Story: Soft, Green, and Comforting

The Luz del Mar Heart Chakra Candle is hand-poured with eco-friendly soy wax and blended to nurture emotional healing and harmony in your space.

  • Top: Soft rose petals
  • Middle: Fresh green herbal notes
  • Base: Smooth sandalwood

Gentle rose petals evoke sweetness and affection, green notes bring a sense of renewal, and sandalwood adds a cozy, grounding warmth. Together, they create a soft floral-woody aura that feels like a comforting embrace for your heart.

Signs Your Heart Chakra May Need Support

You might feel drawn to Heart Chakra work if you notice:

  • Difficulty trusting others or letting people get close
  • Feeling emotionally “shut down” or disconnected
  • Holding onto resentment, heartbreak, or old wounds
  • Struggling with self-love, self-worth, or compassion toward yourself

Working with the Heart Chakra is not about forcing positivity; it’s about giving yourself a gentle space to feel, soften, and heal at your own pace.

Heart-Opening Candle Ritual

Keep your ritual simple and kind. Here is a heart-centered practice you can try:

  1. Create a calm space. Choose a peaceful spot – your nightstand, a reading corner, or a small altar. Place the Heart Chakra Candle in front of you, and add anything meaningful (a photo, crystal, or handwritten note).
  2. Light with a loving intention. As you light the wick, take a slow, deep breath. You might repeat silently:
    “I am open to giving and receiving love.”
    “My heart is safe, supported, and strong.”
    “I choose compassion for myself and others.”
  3. Bring awareness to your heart center. Place a hand over the center of your chest. With each inhale, imagine a soft green or pink light expanding from your heart. With each exhale, release tension, heaviness, or emotional tightness.
  4. Let the fragrance hold you. Breathe in the gentle rose and sandalwood notes. Notice any shifts in your body – your shoulders softening, your breath deepening, or your chest feeling a bit more open.
  5. Close with gratitude. Before you extinguish the flame, thank your heart for all it has carried and all it continues to feel.
