If you haven’t yet had a sniff of the Aveda Light the Way Candle (£16.00), make sure you do, it’s divine. It supports the Aveda Earth Month Initiative . Over the past 8 years, Light the Way candle purchases and donations have raised over £6 million to support Global Greengrants Fund water projects – like the one in Madagascar that helped the children who drew the artwork that inspired the box design for the Light the Way Candle.
The candle itself is made from soy wax with organic spices from Madagascar, and the full 100% of the purchase price helps to protect clean water.
To fit in with this initiative, Aveda will be hosting #ThoughtfulThursday yoga classes at the Lifestyle Salon and Spa in Covent Garden throughout April. Every Thursday, places permitting, you’ll be able to join in an early morning yoga class in the calming Aveda space, and all they ask for is a minimum donation of £5 which will go towards Earth Month fundraising efforts.
Nahid de Belgeonne, founder of Good Vibes Glow Yoga, will be guiding each session herself, so you’ll be in seriously good hands. The sessions will focus on wellbeing and mindfulness, and a ‘Thoughtful Fact’ will be shared during each one.
We’ll be popping along for sure.
The Aveda Light The Way Candle (£16.00) is available from Aveda.co.uk from April. To find out more about the yoga sessions click here.
