I created Senseful Resets as a gentle invitation to pause, breathe and return to yourself.
These short guided resets offer a few quiet minutes for everyday moments, whether you’re starting your morning, taking a break or winding down. No previous experience is needed. Simply choose a reset and follow along at your own pace.
If you’d prefer to join me live, I’m also gathering interest in Senseful Sessions, a complimentary 30-minute online guided meditation in a small group. WhatsApp +65 8995 6615 with “SESSIONS” to express your interest.
Senseful Crafts SG was one of the sponsors of the SMU Bondue Business Forum 2026, contributing hand-poured scented candles as doorgifts for the professionals attending the event.
A business forum is naturally filled with conversation, ideas, introductions, and movement. We wanted our contribution to offer something quieter: a small sensory moment that people could take with them after the event.
Each candle was prepared with care and included an introduction to Senseful Resets, our short meditation podcast for everyday moments of stress, overwhelm, or simply needing a pause. The accompanying insert included a QR code for a guided reset, along with an invitation to explore our online consultations for those who would like more personal support in their wellbeing practice.
For Senseful Crafts, thoughtful gifting is not only about the object itself. It is also about the feeling it creates. A hand-poured candle can bring warmth to a space, while scent can help us slow down and reconnect with the present moment.
Our sponsorship of the SMU Bondue Business Forum was a modest but meaningful way to share that intention with a professional community. Through our candles and Senseful Resets, we hope to encourage more moments of calm, reflection, and wellbeing in everyday life.
Senseful Crafts SG creates hand-poured candles and mindful gifts designed with intention.
Some products exist because of what their maker was willing to do. Ours exist because of what I was unwilling to accept.
When I set out to rebuild Senseful Crafts, candles were central to the vision. I had worked with a wonderful supplier in the USA years before — someone whose craft I trusted completely. But when I reached out again, I learned she had downscaled and was no longer shipping overseas. That door had quietly closed.
I knocked on others. Many didn’t answer. One supplier was willing to talk — but only on his terms. He wanted beeswax in the blend. Synthetic chemicals too. “This is how it’s done now,” he told me, as if the industry had simply moved on and I should too.
I couldn’t.
Not because I was being difficult, but because I had held pure plant wax candles before. I knew they existed. I knew they were possible. And I knew that Senseful Crafts could never be built on a foundation I didn’t fully believe in.
So I learned to make them myself.
Every candle you find here — from the Batik Tins to the Wisdom Gem collection — is the result of that choice. Sourced with care, poured with intention, and made entirely from plant wax. No beeswax. No synthetics. Nothing hidden.
That’s not a marketing claim. It’s the reason this brand exists at all.
I’ve been working on something quietly for a while now, and I’m so glad it’s finally ready to share.
Meet the Mindful Journal.
It’s a simple kraft journal — but what’s inside is anything but ordinary.
Every journal comes with a randomly assigned affirmation quote on the cover and a surprise set of reflection prompts tucked inside. You don’t know which quote you’ll get. You don’t know which prompt set is waiting for you. That’s entirely the point.
I wanted to create something that felt like a little gift from the universe. Something that says: this one is yours.
Why I created this
So many people tell me they want to journal but don’t know where to start. They stare at a blank page and freeze. They feel like they need to write something meaningful, something worthy of the page.
But journalling doesn’t work like that. It works when you show up — imperfectly, honestly, and without pressure.
The Mindful Journal is designed to remove that pressure. The prompts guide you gently. The morning prompt helps you set an intention. The evening prompt helps you close your day. And the general prompts are there for whenever you need a quiet moment to come back to yourself.
No experience needed. No right or wrong answers. Just you, a pen, and a question worth sitting with.
A little lucky draw for your soul
Each journal is unique — the affirmation quote on the cover and the prompt set inside are both randomly assigned. I love that. It feels like the journal finds you, not the other way around.
What’s inside:
📓 A5 kraft journal — 34 lined sheets, 68 pages
🏷️ A surprise affirmation quote on the cover
📄 Journal Insert for guidance – a single sheet which can be used daily until you get the habit of writing without any prompts
☀️ Morning, 🌙 evening & 🌿 general reflection prompts
Available now at S$15 — from the online store and at our upcoming events.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to start journalling, this is it. 🌿
If you’ve never had a wellness consultation before, you might be wondering — what actually happens? Is it like therapy? A coaching session? Something else entirely?
It’s a fair question. And the honest answer is: it’s a conversation. A real one — and you can have it from wherever you are in the world.
Who You’ll Be Speaking With
My name is Esther, and wellness has been my foundation long before it became my business. I grew up surrounded by healers, and over the years that early immersion led me to train formally across multiple disciplines. I am a certified:
Chikara-Reiki-Do Master (Usui & Tibetan lineage)
Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultant (American Institute of Vedic Studies)
Yoga & Ayurveda Wellness Consultant (American Institute of Vedic Studies)
I’ve been offering healing sessions and consultations for years — first under Within Senses, and now through Senseful Crafts, where wellness is woven into everything I create.
A Space That’s Just for You
A consultation with me is an unhurried, one-on-one virtual session where we explore where you are right now — physically, emotionally, energetically — and what might help you feel more balanced, grounded, and clear.
There’s no script. No checklist to rush through. We connect online, at your pace, and follow what feels most relevant to you.
What We Might Explore
Depending on what you’re navigating, a session may draw on:
Reiki & energy healing — understanding and working with the energy your body holds
Ayurvedic principles — how your constitution, lifestyle, and daily rhythms affect your wellbeing
Meditation & breathwork — simple, practical tools you can use every day
Crystals & intentional rituals — how to bring more meaning and mindfulness into your space and routines
You don’t need to know anything about any of these going in. Curiosity is enough — and distance is no barrier.
Who Is This For?
This is for you if you’ve been feeling:
Stuck, scattered, or running on empty
Called toward something deeper but not sure where to start
Ready to invest in your wellbeing — not just your productivity
All you need is a quiet space and an open mind. The rest, we figure out together.
How to Book
Sessions are held virtually and available to book through Senseful Crafts. Browse the options and choose what feels right for where you are right now.
Singapore’s wellness scene is quietly blooming — and Chill Carnival: Festival for the Child Within is exactly the kind of event that reflects this shift.
Organised by Chill By Nette and held at Capitol Singapore on 1 August 2026, Chill Carnival brought together a small, intentional group of participants for 90 minutes of guided rest, play, and inner reconnection. No screens. No rushing. Just space to breathe and remember who you are beneath the busyness.
Senseful Crafts was proud to be a sponsor of this event, contributing our Batik Inspired Motif Tin Candles and Notebooks — specially curated for the Inner Child edition.
Why We Support Events Like This
As a Singapore-based brand rooted in mindful living, we believe in showing up for the local wellness community — not just online, but in real spaces where real connection happens.
Events like Chill Carnival remind us that wellness isn’t a luxury. It’s a return to yourself.

Our Batik Tin Candles started with a simple question: what if a candle could carry intention?
Each tin features an original motif design — created to be as considered as what’s inside. Not just a pretty container, but a deliberate choice: pattern, colour, and form working together to make something worth keeping.
And it goes deeper than aesthetics. Each motif design is intentionally matched to its scent — so the visual and the fragrance tell the same story. What you see on the tin is a reflection of what you’ll smell when you light it.
Inside, plant wax. A slow, clean burn. A scent crafted for your everyday — whether that’s a quiet morning, a focused afternoon, or a moment of stillness at the end of the day.
At SGD 25, they’re designed to be accessible — a small object with a considered presence. Light one. Gift one. Let it do its quiet work.
At Senseful Crafts, every candle we make is an intention — crafted to bring calm, meaning, and beauty into everyday spaces. And now, we’re ready to create with you.
We’re opening up collaborations.
If you love mindful living, beautiful spaces, and heartfelt gifting — we’d love to build something together.

Singapore moves at lightning speed. From the morning MRT rush to the constant hum of construction, the glow of screens is everywhere. It’s easy to feel swept away by the current of urban life.
Yet even in the heart of this vibrant city, stillness is possible. Not as an escape from the pace, but as an anchor within it. Stillness isn’t about silence or solitude—it’s about finding moments of presence and calm amidst the motion.
Why Stillness Matters
In a culture that celebrates productivity, pausing can feel counterintuitive. But stillness isn’t the opposite of action—it’s the foundation for sustainable living. When we create space for stillness, we reduce stress. We improve our focus. We reconnect with our values. We experience more joy in daily life.
Micro-Moments of Stillness
You don’t need hours of free time. Stillness can be woven into your day through small, intentional practices:
Morning Anchors: Before checking your phone, take three deep breaths. Light a candle and sit with your morning coffee in silence for five minutes. Set an intention for the day.
Commute Contemplation: Instead of scrolling on the MRT, try a simple mindfulness practice. Notice your breath, watch the rhythm of the train, or silently repeat a calming mantra.
Lunch Break Reset: Step away from your desk. Find a quiet corner or nearby park. Use an hourglass timer to dedicate 10 minutes to simply being—no phone, no task list, just presence.
Evening Wind-Down: Create a transition ritual between work and rest. Light a calming candle, journal for a few minutes, or hold a grounding crystal while reflecting on your day.
Creating Stillness in Your Space
Even in a small HDB flat or busy condo, you can design pockets of calm. Assign a stillness corner with a cushion, candle, and crystal. Use calming scents like lavender or sandalwood to shift the energy. Minimise visual clutter and bring in natural elements—a plant, stones, or natural textures.
Start Small
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Choose one micro-moment practice and commit to it for a week. Notice how it feels. Over time, these moments accumulate, creating a foundation of calm that supports you through the city’s intensity.
The city will keep moving. The question is: will you move with it mindfully, or be swept along unconsciously?
Choose stillness. Not as an escape, but as a way of being fully here in the life you’re living.
