Natural Beauty and Motherhood: The Top 3 Mindful Practices for Aging Gracefully as a Woman - Baie Botanique.
Regardless of cultural upbringing, motherhood is a shared and lived experience of women worldwide. Motherhood is said to be a never-ending journey, from conceiving a child to raising their family; mothers carry a lifetime of lessons from generations of sisters, daughters and fellow mothers.
"Motherhood is hard enough without the judgment of others who don't know the whole story."
—Sarah Addison Allen, "First Frost"
It's interesting how the Earth is often associated with femininity and seen as a nurturing force, even though humanity sometimes neglects its care. But just like the wisdom of mothers, we can learn so much by tracing back how Mother Nature views ages, shapes, sizes and processes as part of the bigger picture.
Think about it - every stretch mark resembling lightning in the sky, every discoloration reflecting the diverse colors in biodiversity, and every wrinkle evoking natural processes. It's as if nature is a canvas that tells a story of timeless and formless beauty in every line and nuance of color.
The gift of Mother Nature never ceases to amaze us at Baie Botanique. With our brand founder and mother of two Sophie, we believe we have created a safe space for women, regardless of their ethnicity, age and skin concerns. We have confidence in what we do by bottling nature's best for your skin.
Our goal is to harness the power of nature through honest formulas and the finest botanicals and organic ingredients. Our products are our gift to women worldwide to rejuvenate their skin and achieve their best skin goals without sacrificing a luxurious and eco-friendly self-care experience by harnessing nature and natural beauty.
With that goal in mind, we'd like to share with you three mindful practices for embracing motherhood and aging gracefully, naturally - the Baie Botanique way.
1. Mindful consumption
Staying conscious and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is what really matters. Be mindful of what you eat, where you get your food and drinks from and how they are sourced. Eat foods rich in antioxidants, omega-3 and naturally occurring vitamins and minerals. Always remember that you deserve healthy and nutritious meals according to your diet. Avoid synthetic additives in your food and drink enough water daily depending on your lifestyle and age. Be it through pure water or through plants and fruits rich in water and vital minerals.
And another thing to remember is that consumption is not just about what we eat, but also what takes up space in our lives. In doing so, we should be mindful of what media we watch and read and how we use social media. Being mindful of everything we consume not only helps us become a better person, but also fosters a safe space for ourselves.
2. Mindful relationships
In addition to maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle, we should also maintain a positive attitude and have a stable network of friends and family as a good support. Connecting with others who share similar experiences can help us understand ourselves better and feel more comfortable and reassured.
Another way to connect with others is to find like-minded people; finding someone who shares your hobbies or enjoys the same things as you can have a positive impact on your mental and emotional well-being. A mindful relationship is characterized by the ability to grow together, have more meaningful conversations, and enrich ideas.
Gratitude, compassion and acceptance are the keys to a healthy relationship.
3. Mindful self-care
Find something you really enjoy and that is good for both your mind and body. Small stretches throughout the day, joining a yoga class, or even low-intensity workouts are always game-changing.
With all the pollutants around us, it's important to make sure your skin feels clean after a long day. But unlike other skincare products, we've made sure our products do their job but don't strip your skin's important oils. A clean face shouldn't mean dry and flaky skin, but should still be able to retain its natural moisture.
Taking full advantage of nature, playing with your kids, or enjoying your picnic date outside with your family means sun exposure. The sun ages our skin, but we don't have to worry if we have the right sun protection and protection to ensure we reduce the appearance of sun spots and avoid sun damage, allowing us to have more fun days under the sun.
As we celebrate International Women's Day on March 8th, we at Baie Botanique would like to express our deepest gratitude to all our supporters, especially the mothers who include us in their daily routine for happier and healthier skin as well as their journey through motherhood. It is truly an exciting adventure to formulate good and honest products for women who love clean beauty routines.
