Healing Peace
Around this time, he also began volunteering at a Dominican priory, doing the most menial of tasks. Eventually, Martin was welcomed as a brother and he used his barbering and surgery skills to care for the other Dominicans and the poor in the infirmary.
In art he is often depicted with a lemon tree, which signifies the many miracles attributed to St. Martin, even during his life. Part of his work included tending the priory garden and one story tells of a lemon tree that he planted that blossomed and bore fruit year round, providing fruit for the monks and the poor.
You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:
- Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
- Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
- Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
- Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
- Keep out of direct sunlight
We purchased these as gifts for teachers, staff and volunteers at our school. They smelled amazing.
Anna I just love ❤️all of your candles !
thank you ! I look forward to the one a year sale every year and I love sharing these with my friends
Happy with my purchase of "Lauds" & "Healing Peace." Bought for my parents as a gift and they love the smell & sentiment. I also love the smell, which is hard to pick out online. I really appreciated the story behind each candle & it helped me pick out the perfect candle for each of them. My mom is a hairdresser "Healing Peace" & my dad loves his morning devotional time "Lauds." I would definitely recommend Corda!
This candle is my absolute favorite - it smells fresh and clean, light and airy, as well as bright and uplifting. It’s like a smile and a hug in a jar!
This is one of our new favorites! We will be buying more!
I have tried all (or maybe almost all, by now) of Corda’s scents via the samplers. This is a beautiful, light scent—lemony, floral, lightly fruity, but clean and calm. Very appealing.
Has a lovely scent to it and is wonderful to pray with. Just too strong for me, extremely fragrant.
Such a cool candle to give to your hairdresser or barber for Christmas! It was much appreciated and hopefully planted some seeds of interest in this amazing saint.
What a unique idea for a gift Amy! Thank you so much for sharing and for the review! - the CORDA team

Thank you for your review, Christopher! - Anna
The combination of lemon and barbershop is soothing. As with other CORDA candles, the throw of the scent is pleasant, not overpowering. Thank you, Anna, for all your work in making CORDA candles!
