Our Story

Hi, I’m Anu, founder of Bettinka and also a Reiki energy healer.

Bettinka began as a personal journey. I was looking for ways to bring more calm, balance, and intention into my everyday life. What started as a few handmade candles and blends to support my own mindfulness and Reiki healing practice slowly grew into something I felt called to share with others

The name Bettinka is especially close to my heart, as it's named after my mother, whose strength, love, and wisdom continue to guide me. She inspired me to create with care, live with intention, see the beauty in everything, and be courageous and honest in all that I do.

 

 

My roots in Mongolia, a land rich in ancestral wisdom, shamanic heritage, and deep reverence for nature, shape the way I approach my art and practice. I’ve always believed that everyday objects can hold energy. A candle isn’t just a candle—it can shift the energy in a space, support your rituals, and help you reconnect with yourself.

With Bettinka, my intention is to create products that hold meaning, pieces you can feel. Everything is handmade in small batches in Vancouver, using natural ingredients like 100% Canadian soy wax, pure essential oils, and plant-based materials. From candles and roll-ons to soaps and greeting cards, every item is crafted with love, spirit, and purpose.

Thank you for being here. I hope Bettinka brings a little more peace, light, and connection into your life.

With love,

Anu
