How many toxins are you exposing your body to in the bathroom?

As we become more conscious we also naturally begin to nurture our bodies in more wholesome ways. Sensitivity to toxins gradually increases and we begin to find that the personal care products we were buying in the supermarket no longer work for us.

Shampoos, moisturisers, deoderant and toothpaste can contain a range of chemicals that have not been tested for your safety. They also have to undergo a range of toxic processes to make them smell, taste and feel good. You really don't want to know what they looked and smelt like before they were processed!

Miessence™ products are Certified Organic or Organic. They nourish and nurture your physical body so that it can be healthy and happy. You can learn more about Miessence products here.

The Temple of Your Soul - How Are You Treating It?

That glamorous bottle of bodywash on the supermarket shelf marked "Organic" may contain some of the following ingredients:

• Sodium Laurenth Sulphate(coconut) - May be contaminated with nitrosamines, which are carcinogenic. Surfactants can pose serious health threats. They are used in car washes, as garage floor cleaners and engine degreasers - and in 90% of personal-care products that foam.
• Methyl Paraben (organic preservative) - Used as inhibitors of microbial growth and to extend shelf life of products. Widely used even though they are known to be toxic. Have caused many allergic reactions and skin rashes. Highly toxic.
• Dimethicone (silica) - Silicone emollients are occlusive - that is they coat the skin, trapping anything beneath it, and do not allow the skin to breathe (much like plastic wrap would do.) Recent studies have indicated that prolonged exposure of the skin to sweat, by occlusion, causes skin irritation. Some synthetic emollients are known tumour promoters and accumulate in the liver and lymph nodes. They are also non-biodegradable, causing negative environmental impact.

One third of all personal care products contain one or more ingredients classified as possible human carcinogens.

Go to your bathroom now, pick up a bottle and check the ingredients with this list to find out what is inside. Here is an article that explains the dangers of the personal care industry to your health - it's called Skin Deep.

89% of 10,500 ingredients used in personal care products have NOT been evaluated for safety.

Miessence is the World's first extensive range of internationally Certified Organic skin, hair, body, cosmetic, oral and nutritional products. Narelle Chenery, the creator of these products, was looking for healthy products for her children. She was horrified by what was on offer and decided to try making her own. In her kitchen at home Narelle worked out a way to create organic products that need no preservatives and that maintain their purity and potency.

Alf Orpen stumbled upon Narelle selling her products at the local markets. He had been working in the organic industry for 20 years and started talking to Narelle about what she had to offer. When he realised the uniqueness of what she had created he offered to join her to make the Miessence products available to the global market.

The Miessence range includes over 70 products including skincare, haircare, bodycare,a Certified Organic Probiotic and Berry Radical - a Certified Organic antixoxidant superfood. My new favourite is Bio-Pure, a probiotic cleaner that uses powerful probiotic bacteria, antioxidants and enzymes so you can clean without chemicals, and its living benefits continue to work even after the initial application. And it smells divine.

You can buy your products online and they will be delivered to your door practically anywhere in the world.

If you are ready to love your body, this is the way to go.
