Its such a difficult thing to accept that the chemicals we put on our skin, breath into our lungs or use to wash ourselves with can manifest into something such as rough spotty skin, eczema, gut problems, or skin cancers.
My journey to appreciating nature and what it can give my mind, body and soul.
As a young adult unaware, I used to joke that makeup doesn’t like me. Each time I would try different makeup, some deodorants, perfumes or lovely body lotions I would end up with puffy inflamed skin, and sore to touch. I would look quite the opposite of beautified.
If only I knew then what I know now!
When I became pregnant, my awareness started to grow. I was seeking the best natural products I could afford for my unborn child. Eager to help my body, that would ultimately be providing the nutrients to that baby. I was cautious about the foods that should and shouldn’t be eaten, I gained awareness of the chemicals in the products that I applied to my body. Including those used to clean, to bathe, to relax, and to smell.
When my baby was born, so was my love for Weleda, (as well as my fresh natural delicate baby). I discovered the baby products and the Weleda nappy cream and lived by these for years to come, adding to my Weleda repertoire each year that passed.
As my child grew, I expanded my search for natural products. I soon discovered the Weleda products range spanned much further than the baby stage. Even past the let mum have a relaxing bath stage as my child grew and developed into a pre-teen.
Next, I was on the hunt for natural deodorants, shower washes and gentle face wash for a different stage of skincare.
My pre-teen.
I needed help and advice and I found my way to the Weleda website. I made an unplanned phone call and soon I spoke with a Weleda advisor who opened my world to a huge selection of natural products by Weleda.
I was most elated!
Much to my surprise from asking for advice, I had not only found new products but a whole community of like-minded women that share the same ethos of natural and sustainable living!
I am now so glad I became a Weleda Wellbeing Advisor; it flows so well with my
Holistic Healthy Living beliefs.
To this day I am still discovering new ways of enjoying these beautifully sourced natural products.
I love using them in my home, on my skin and with all my family.
From homoeopathic remedies to easing bumps & bruises. Facial routines to muscle soak, and delicate baby care all the way to delightful shower washes.
