Natural living and beyond!

Naturally! That word is quite a run of the mill to use when you want to sound everything perfect. By saying that do we even think how natural affects our life or are we so much over-Whelmed from day to day living that we don't even need to take a pause and think. We know it is good for ourselves and the environment to live naturally. But the question is how we do it or even if we know how to do it the next question is, is it economical? Natural products are considered to be more expensive than their synthetic competitors. There are several ways to cut down the cost especially in this economy, where people have become more money wise. There are simple things like making your own natural body scrub from commonly found household ingredients like oatmeal, honey and rosemary oil. If you want to make it more luxurious add a few drops of lavender, which also acts as soothing ingredient as it calm nerves and helps to get a good night sleep.
Nowadays with so many options and a overly stressed life, we don’t even think before using or throwing away things that are not bio-degradable. Take an example of thousands of computer and Television sets that are thrown in the dump for that big screen LCD or plasma. The question is do we really need it or is my television set SO out of order that I need to get a new one. Isn’t it common sense to know that every electronic that we buy is out dated in a couple of years. We have to learn to be wise and responsible, through the minimalistic approach. Abundance can be harmful at times when one does not have the wisdom to use it correctly. Simple things like getting in the car and reaching a place is taken for granted and we don’t even give a thought about walking to a near by grocery store or car pooling to work. Anyone who cares about themselves, their family, their community or the planet as whole should come up with ways to live a more holistic and sustainable life. Till then live well Naturally!
This is my Favourite place to shop when I am in search of ingredients for making Natural Handmade soaps.
