Candle's calming effect can boost spirit

Name: Jennifer Morse.

Name of business: Crystal Candle Gardens, Scottsdale.

Title: Owner.

Age: 50.

What I do: I create products that turn your attention toward beauty and harmony, and away from stress.

About my business: Crystal Candle Gardens are focal points of beauty for your home, office or a special event. But they are much more than just an attractive art piece.

When you pause for a moment to appreciate the beauty of a glowing Crystal Candle Garden, you experience a whole series of mental and physical responses during this stress-reducing time. I believe that the more positive moments you have in your day, the more your personal biochemistry leads you to creativity, resilience and resourcefulness.

These qualities become advantages for you in your professional life and in encouraging your general feeling of well-being.

What I've learned in business: I've studied successful businesses that thrive in the midst of the revolutionary products they create, such as the computer animation studio Pixar. These businesses develop strong boundaries around their creations through stylized language that is specific to their products.

This language brings its own positive focus, keeping them on task as they work toward business goals, while pushing non-supportive ideas away. These positive boundaries and focus on goals are elements that strongly support the ultimate success of these businesses.

Goals: My goal is to have a Crystal Candle Garden in every home and office where their presence increases harmony and reduces stress.

What community I live in: Scottsdale.

Where I grew up: Seattle, Northern California.

Favorite film: Phenomenon, a 1996 drama, romance and fantasy film starring John Travolta.
