Light a Candle

Finally a book that says it all in little words.Highly recommend this.Everybody should light a candle and snuff out the darkness.

I think this is a wonderful book, and it's very simple and to the point. She makes a point in the book that the scent and the color of a candle can have different meanings and affirmations for each person, and it's up to the individual person to make that decision. The photography in itself is as inspirational. Do not pass this book up! Do yourself a favor and get inspired!

I found this book very refreshing. although it is a small book, I figured as much when I saw it on the website. However, like one of the other reviewers, I went to the bookstore and looked at it and decided not only did I like it, I bought a couple more for gifts for friends who also enjoyed it. I have always lit candles purely for the prettiness, I never thought about giving each candle I light a meaning. I got a reason now to light candles and every time I do I will say a prayer and give that beautiful flame and scent a reason.....

I have never thought of using candles the way Sylvia has written about it in this book. This book is great as a guide, and it says so right in the front. It gives a great base for how you want to use candles, it has affirmations and ideas on how to use candles that I never thought of. It is a simple book which I think is great, not so much reading to do, it just got right down to the point, I loved it. I see nothing childish about this book....unless you let your children play with candles(which most people don't! I thought the illustrations and photos are beautiful. I have bought more candles and arranged them in ways she mentioned in this book and now every time I light a candle I give it meaning. No, if you want a book purely written with NO pictures or pretty writing, then you best find a textbook on candles, but this book is very spiritual and uplifting just as all her other books. I saw NOTHING childish about this book at all. BTW, I looked through this book at the store, so if you aren't sure about a book, go to the bookstore and thumb through the book first before buying it, that way you know just what you are getting and if it's the right book for you or not, instead of blindly purchasing it and then griping about it later!
