About Us

Modern Origins was born from a moment that changed everything.

After facing a personal journey with colon cancer, I was forced to slow down and take a hard look at how I was caring for my body and mind. In the midst of uncertainty and healing, I began to rediscover the power of stillness, intention, and the small rituals that bring peace and clarity.

What started as a way to cope and reconnect with myself became something bigger—Modern Origins. A space dedicated to supporting others on their own path to wellness. Every candle is crafted to encourage moments of calm, reflection, and healing—infused with clean ingredients, soothing scents, and meaningful details like crystals, affirmations, and botanicals.


Whether you’re starting fresh, nurturing your spirit, or simply pausing to breathe, I hope these candles help you honor your own journey—just as creating them has helped me honor mine.

With gratitude,
Erica | Founder of Modern Origins
