3rd Ritual’s Mindful Objects + Botanicals Inspire a More Connected Life

When you move half as fast, you notice twice as much. Those words alone are powerful and inspiring, but they only represent one belief of 3rd Ritual. Founded by aromatherapist and meditation teacher, Jenn Tardif, 3rd Ritual is a collective made up of teachers, seekers and makers. The shop creates mindful objects, such as their BEL Meditation Candle Holder and Candle, and botanical creams and gels. Influenced by Taoist, yogic and design philosophies, 3rd Ritual’s collective pulls meaning out of what might first appear ordinary. It’s through this cultivation and practice that puts a more connected life within reach.

The BEL Meditation Candle Holder and Candle is handmade in India with solid brass. Three brass pins placed in the candle mark the passing of time, when one drops your meditation is complete. Three hand-dipped coconut candles, infused with essential oils of palo santo, French lavender and sage, are included.

With top notes of eucalyptus and tangerine, middle notes of lemongrass and mint leaf and base notes of rosemary and ginger, Sun is invigorating. Using aloe vera and mango seed butter, this gel creates a cool-to-warm sensation by increasing blood flow to the surface of the skin. Awareness is stimulated, while sore muscles or congestion are relieved. Use before practicing sun salutations, through palm inhalation or self-massage of your shoulders. Sun Botanical Body Gel is vegan and cruelty-free.
