Organic to us is a lifestyle, a commitment and a maze to find high quality products and ingredients that are and alive, energetic, grown in the best possible conditons and certified. Ingredients that actually do what they say they do. Not everything that says it is good for you is good for you, not everything labelled organics is as pure as you might be led to believe. We will be doing a comparison or labels and shampoo"s and conditoners specifically soon as there is still much confusion and misguidence within the packaging, labelling and marketing. Natural and organic should not be a trend, it NOW is a marketers dream, the point we switch is to be healthy and in aware not another marketplace commodity. Healthy and organic products should be carefully chosen to make a huge impact and difference in you life and your loved ones, your bodies and your cells. Your immune system your organs all of it counts. Remember we truly are what we eat and what we put in we get back out, just like life and karma as the Buddhists know it.
One consistent thing we found in our 25 years in the business and the health and beauty industry we have always seen that packaging and delicious inviting labeling still sells products, lots of products we are still sensual beings, sexy sells if organic were more sexy everyone would buy it! Do not be deceived, truly organic is CLEAN the labels are often simpler and ecologically designed to be biodegradable and inexpensive, as is the container, think of it more all round.
Another thing we have found in our 25 years is that high quality ingredients and life force - alive nourishment is not cheap, good quality costs a little more and in the health costs you will surely reap the benefits and save for sure. Be aware be informed. You might want to ask yourself "How much is your health worth to you?
To me it is priceless if we have vital health we have abundance and empowerment. More on that later...........
So we suggest always do your research and network with like-minded companies (Tip: good ethical companies have nothing to hide and are clear with you) and individuals when you find a company that fits your need and the products do what they say they do, stick with them and grow organically as a whole. Enjoy you journey

natural v's certified organic we are what we eat ...really !!
IS "NATURAL" REALLY BETTER?
There are people who really do think there are "safe" synthetic chemicals, which can be applied to the skin and eaten in food without doing any harm. However didn't the cigarette manufacturers maintain for over thirty years that the synthetic chemicals in smoke didn’t cause cancer too? It is easy to bury your head in the sand and ignore these dangers as we listen to the hollow platitudes of vested interests that are making billions from a gullible public.
Today, harmful synthetic chemicals are found everywhere, in the food we eat, the air we breathe and even the products we have in our bathrooms. It is no wonder that people everywhere are becoming sick. That is why there is a growing trend, worldwide, towards certified organic products.
The glossy images we're fed by the media hide a dangerous secret: Most of our toiletries, even the "natural variety", are made from the same harsh synthetic chemicals used for industry".
We should avoid toxic synthetic chemicals from all sources. We can do this by sourcing organic produce as much as we possibly can and using only certified organic personal care products and cosmetics. You may be amazed at the huge difference these simple measures will make to your health.
WHY CERTIFIED ORGANIC
HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT WE ARE BUYING IS REALLY “NATURAL” AND “ORGANIC"?
Have you ever wondered what "NATURAL" actually meant when you read it on the bottle of shampoo or skin care product you just bought? Or did you assume because the word natural was used that it must be good for you and safe? You get the product home and then you find you can't even read the long synthetic chemical names on the label let alone pronounce them! Why on earth do they say it is "NATURAL"? How can this be if the synthetic chemical names are so long I can't even begin to pronounce them?
Would you be shocked to find what manufacturers can claim is "natural" is actually so far removed from natural it isn't funny?
If we look in the dictionary for the word organic it is pretty obvious to us what we expect to find as far as safe products in general are concerned. Would you say in the context you are expecting to use or find the term organic that this would be a fair description; "produced and involving production without the use of pesticides, artificial fertilizers or synthetic chemicals." To me it seems rather elementary that when describing a product as organic that this is exactly what the customer would expect. However to the marketing men this is not what they mean by organic.
