Himalayan salt lamps : natural beauty and health benefits

Himalayan salt lamps have become a growing trend in interior design and wellness. Originating in the salt mines located in the majestic Himalayan mountains, these lamps are hand-cut from blocks of salt crystals and radiate a warm, soothing glow. As well as their aesthetic appeal, these lamps also offer a range of health benefits, making them popular with many alternative medicine enthusiasts.

Whether you're looking to improve the atmosphere in your home or enjoy the soothing effects of negative ions, these lamps can be a valuable addition to your home environment and overall well-being.

 

How do Himalayan salt lamps work ?

Himalayan salt lamps are made from pure salt crystals that are millions of years old and naturally contain small amounts of essential minerals such as potassium, calcium and magnesium. When the lamp is switched on, the heat generated by the bulb inside the hollow cavity of the crystal causes the water in the surrounding air to evaporate slightly. This evaporation leads to the release of negative ions, also known as "negative ions" or "beneficial ions".

 

Benefits of negative ions

Negative ions are known to have positive effects on our physical and mental well-being. Here are some of the benefits associated with negative ions :

1 - Improved air quality : Negative ions can help purify the air by attracting positively charged particles such as dust, pollen, allergens and contaminants, causing them to fall to the ground, improving the quality of the air we breathe.

2 - Reduced stress and anxiety : Negative ions are thought to have a relaxing effect on our nervous system, helping to reduce stress and anxiety and promote a calming atmosphere in the surrounding space.

3 - Mood boost : Negative ions can help increase the production of serotonin, the happy hormone, which can improve our mood and general sense of well-being.

4 - Improved sleep : Some people have reported that the presence of a Himalayan salt lamp in their bedroom has improved the quality of their sleep by creating a serene atmosphere and reducing environmental disturbances.

Purify and deodorize your home

Salt crystal is known as a natural purifier and deodorizer for your interior. Salt candle holders purify the air with the power of hygroscopy. This means that they attract water molecules from the surrounding medium and then absorb these molecules along with any foreign particles they carry into the salt crystal.

In addition, when the candle holder is lit and produces heat thanks to the candle, this same water then evaporates in the air and captures the particles of dust, pollen, smoke and harmful particles in the salt.

Beneficial negative ions

Salt crystal naturally emits negative ions. These negative ions will have the ability to neutralize electromagnetic radiation. Place the candle holder near the computer, your smartphone, the television and any other electrical device that you use frequently to reduce the potential danger of this radiation.

In addition, these negative ions are useful in countering the positive ions naturally present in the air. Positive ions are said to drain you of energy (or drain your body of energy), while negative ions help collect pollutants to get rid of them, and rejuvenate body and mind.

Once negative ions reach the bloodstream, they are said to produce biochemical reactions that increase serotonin, a chemical hormone that helps relieve depression, relieve stress, and promote daytime energy.

Using a crystal salt object daily promotes better quality sleep and improves both mood and concentration.

By eradicating positive ions from your indoor environment, crystal salt helps reduce stress and promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. The soothing and zen orange color that emanates from it also helps to soothe you but also to fight against depression and seasonal depression. When autumn arrives, for example, many people are affected by this feeling of depression due to the lack of sun. The salt crystal helps the body and the mind to cope with the fact that the sun sets earlier. Objects made of salt crystal are also used in chromotherapy to reconnect body and mind and to improve inner balance.

You can absolutely use this candle holder as part of a meditation or yoga session. It is a real ally in terms of sophrology and creating an environment conducive to relaxation.

Himalayan Salt Crystal Candle Holders

How often do you turn it on ?

We do not recommend that you leave a candle burning constantly in this candle holder. Unlike a salt lamp which does not present any risk (equipped with a bulb), a candle obviously remains more risky, especially if you are away from home. Keep in mind that salt does its job of capturing and radiating naturally. But the heat given off by the candle combined with the Himalayan salt increases the spread of negative ions which eradicate the positive ions.

In addition, if the degree of humidity of the room in which it is placed increases and if the candle holder remains extinguished, it may "weep" and deteriorate. It is a natural phenomenon. The salt picks up the humidity in the room and the candle holder begins to crumble. So there is no frequency rule for ignition.

Our advice : take advantage of its atmosphere as soon as you can and don't forget to turn it on if it starts to show signs of crumbling. And of course, do not put the candle holder in contact with water.

Origin and source of these blocks of salt ?

Cutting a block of salt with a circular saw

The candle holders we offer are made from salt harvested from the Khewra salt mine in northeastern Pakistan, at the foot of the Himalayan range.

These blocks of salt were formed over 250 million years thanks to the slow drying of the sea and the simultaneous elevation of the mountain range.

This salt mine has a total of 19 levels where the extraction takes place (including 11 underground). From the entrance, the mine extends up 730 meters into the mountain. The total length of the galleries is about 40 km. The underground part covers an area of at least 110 km². About 70% of the extracted rock salt is intended for industrial use. The remaining 30% is edible.

This rock salt, extracted from rocks dating back millions of years, is pure, without additives, non-iodized and rich in iron. Its pretty pink color is due to the oxidation of the iron contained in it.

The candle holder is carved from a plate of pink salt. It is then shaped and hollowed out to allow you to place a candle in its center. The manufacturer Zen Arôme guarantees us that no child of the country is exploited either in the salt mine or for the manufacture of the candlestick.

In which rooms should you place this salt candle holder ?

Salt crystal candle holder Rock model

A salt candle holder is a light that provides soft and warm lighting. It will bring a little of its magic wherever it is installed: living room, bedroom, kitchen, office... Its size being small (height 6 to 8 cm), it is however advisable to use it in small spaces so that its effect is really visible. Our other advice, distribute several in the same room to increase its effects and its soothing atmosphere.

However, be careful not to place it in a damp room.

As explained above, a salt candle holder has the particularity of absorbing ambient humidity. It is therefore recommended not to place it directly on a piece of furniture but to use a support. However, this candlestick is equipped with 3 shock-absorbing feet on the base to place it more serenely. Forget the idea of placing it in your bathroom or laundry room permanently.

Inside your home, the temperature should stay around 19°C with a humidity level of around 40-60%.
