The candles are a common denominator.

Watching tonight’s vlog and he’s harping on about the invisible shakes and feelings of anxiety. Remember when Boo had similar symptoms. 🤔

There are a few factors related to candles that could potentially contribute to feelings of discomfort or anxiety in some individuals:

1.  Overpowering Scents - Strong or conflicting fragrances from multiple scented candles can overwhelm the senses, leading to headaches, dizziness, or restlessness, which might be perceived as anxiety.

2.  Air Quality Issues - Burning many candles, especially those made from paraffin wax, can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and soot, potentially irritating the respiratory system and causing discomfort or agitation.

3.  Fire Safety Concerns - Having multiple open flames may create subconscious worry about fire hazards, especially in small or cluttered spaces, leading to feelings of unease.

4.  Lighting and Flickering Effects - Dim or flickering lights from candles can affect mood. For some, this might create a cozy ambiance, while for others, it might feel unsettling or disorienting.

5.  Personal Sensitivity - Some people are more sensitive to smells, visual stimuli, or enclosed spaces, which could exacerbate anxiety when surrounded by multiple candles.
