Our Story

how it all started

Nausea and debilitating migraines, this was my new normal after regular use of home fragrances and expensive candles labelled Soy “Natural” Candles. I thought I was paying for quality natural candles, but instead my health was suffering. So begun my journey researching candle and home fragrance ingredients, quickly discovering the toxic effects of synthetic fragrances and the candle industry's loose labeling laws that are also misleading.

Chemicals that can be found in synthetic fragrances are petroleum-based, include phthalates, which are endocrine disruptors, and carcinogens benzophenone and styrene. In addition, many people also experience allergic reactions to fragrance chemicals.

I still can't believe what we are using to perfume our lives!

My search for natural alternatives, instead led me to study aromatherapy and develop my own bespoke range of Natural, Aromatherapy Candles and Reed Diffusers, with our natural product range continually growing. At Nourish The Soul, we have now developed an extensive range of new and intoxicating products using pure and natural essential oils, that are so much more than just fragrance!

Our fragrances contain essential oil blends that may enhance your health and well-being, mood, and the ambience of your space without putting the quality of the air around you and your loved ones at risk.

I have poured my heart and soul into curating a bespoke collection that is Pure and Natural. This has been a life-changing and rewarding journey, that has also been incredibly helpful in my journey with chronic pain.

Our commitment to using all-natural and non-toxic products is at the core of our brand.

Our Customers

I purchase products on a regular basis from Nourish the Soul, and I still cannot believe how beautiful and unique the scent from both the diffusers and candles are.

I now have a young daughter and find the reed diffusers make my entire house smell lovely, without worrying about the flame of a candle with her inquisitiveness.

Nourish The Soul products help me feel less stressed, and instead lift my mood and freshen the air quality around me.

I now purchase reed diffusers for my workplace as well, and recommended your products to all my friends.

I am completely in love with my Nourish The Soul candles! My absolute favourite aroma is Heaven Scent.

 I can't get enough of this one and burn it everyday while I wind down before bed. I swear the first whiff sweeps me off my feet. They look gorgeous in my home salon... and in every other room, lol. I've had loads of compliments from my own customers because of the candles I burn. They help to set the mood and make my salon look gorgeous. Thank you for using essential oils instead of fragrance. The difference in quality between the 2 is immeasurable.  The quality in these candles does not go unnoticed. Even the wax is divine... it looks like silk! I'm a huge fan of the whole range and will definitely be ordering these online for presents. I feel good that I'm buying from an Australian business. 5 Stars all the way!

Using Only Natural Fragances

Fragrances are the most complex ingredients in our candle range. Fragrances are composed of natural, naturally derived, and synthetic ingredients. Nourish The Soul only uses natural fragrances that are also phthalate-free in our Natuals Collection. In addition, all fragrances used by Nourish the Soul follows the code of practices set by the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials (RIFM), ensuring all fragrances are safe for consumers.

Natural Fragrance

Nourish The Soul sources premium quality, pure essential oils from ethical and responsible sources.

Blending essential oils with similar or complementary properties can be used for an intended olfactory impact and potential therapeutic benefits.

When certain essential oils are blended, they can enhance the effect of the individual essential oils, creating a powerful synergy.

Our fragrances aren’t just fragrances, but synergies best used depending on the time of day or the desired effect and mood. Among the countless benefits of essential oils used in aromatherapy, as the most appealing attributes, they can create a calming atmosphere, lift spirits, promote feelings of peace, and balance emotions and moods.

My Story

Eleven years ago, I was involved in an accident that resulted in multiple surgeries and ongoing treatments with no relief. Instead, I developed unbearable neurological pain and changes to motor function of my left arm. Unfortunately, several months after this horrendous pain started, I was diagnosed with a serious disorder of the nervous system called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS).

My entire life changed the day I developed CRPS; I was now living with excruciating nerve pain. The chronic physical pain is just one part of the journey, but as a result of this condition I also lost everything I had worked so hard to achieve in my life; my physical and mental health, my career, independence, fitness, friendships and financial freedom.

Over time, my Chronic Pain Medical team started helping me with non-pharmaceutical, non-invasive options to help with my pain as the other options were more surgery and opioid addiction. Finally, I decided to take charge of my treatment and began researching natural therapies to fight chronic pain. As a result I adopted significant changes to improve my quality of life, including work to remove energetic blocks, I changed to a plant based diet, and focused on surrounding myself with a natural, non toxic, healing environment.

The crucial change I made was to not only address what was happening to my physical body but to work on my Mind, Body & Soul.

My energy shifted; my pain had reduced significantly, my energy levels increased, and I found a new passion to share the products I had begun creating for myself.

A 100% natural product range, no chemicals, toxins, no animal products and no migraine inducing synthetic fragrances.

Our senses are such a powerful system, and aromatic therapy can significantly impact our emotional and mental state.

I found a healthier way of living, and found a higher purpose in the process.
