The Story behind Simple Home Holism
Shh is the culmination of a life spent listening - to elders, nature, science, practical wisdom and most importantly to one's own body. The world blossoms with answers to the question of well-being, whether that be the traditional know-how passed on by a grandmother, the almost infinite knowledge contained within books or the discoveries made travelling the world for a different view. The key to living well is not a mystery and there are many ways to go about it; Simple Home Holism is my way and I'd like to share it with you.
The fun part of an holistic life is getting your hands dirty! Connecting with the process. Growing up, the food we ate was wholesome because we used simple, raw ingredients mixed by our own hands to make something delicious. Foraging in the wild was often an inspiration, whether for soap-making, a soothing balm or a batch of sumptuous jam - their is always joy in your own creation.
Later, my travels through China and India brought me to experience the meditative world of Buddhist temples and discover the whole body wellness benefits of Ayurvedic techniques. In Italy and Spain I advanced my learning of how to use foraged herbs and essentials oils to make skincare products. To complement this, I achieved an academic diploma in applied sciences and have worked latterly on numerous projects developing natural food offers, most recently for The National Trust.
However, the most important classroom always remained the home and I now want to share these simple wellness techniques with you in order for you to create your own spaces of calm and well-being...
So Shh - Simple home holism
