Editor's Letter
I am thrilled to finally bring to life this spontaneous idea of creating a green lifestyle magazine which truly warms up my heart. As the Corpo Natura Clean Beauty Online Boutique is already two years in the market, I’ve realized how much is needed to spread the word about the amazing benefits and fulfillment of living a more holistic and heart-centered life despite the usual hectic of everyday life.
The launching of Corpo Natura has been a spontaneous and wild journey with the normal learning curve challenges. At the same time it has been extremely rewarding to me. I truly believe that living a more purposeful life is the most fulfilling way to live, not because it sounds “cool” or “trendy”, as I have experienced this myself. After having a serious health setback some years ago, I started questioning many things about how I was living my life, the real purpose of what I was doing and the impact of my actions. I questioned the impact of the food I ate and the products I used, not only on my body but also on the environment. Is this food really nourishing me? Is this ingredient ethically sourced? Am I helping someone with my choices as consumer ?
Finally, being diagnosed with a chronic illness was a big wake-up call for me and nowadays from time to time the Universe kindly reminds me when I start deviating from my true purpose. In order to live a healthy, nourishing life, one must realize that living a life like that is a path of no return. Once you are in, you can’t look back ! I just happen to be passionate about clean living because that is where my values stand and what I have genuinely come to believe.
These past years have been challenging but they have also filled me with incommensurate joy, as I’ve met a bunch of delightful women who - thanks to the Universe - crossed my path to help me grow. I was able to learn exactly what I needed to learn at the right moment. That taught me that there is so much goodness in the world to be shared and I wanted to put my grain of salt on this by creating this magazine.
Also I have received so much gratification by inspiring and empowering others to make better decisions as consumers while being truthful to themselves.
My dream is to create an intimate circle of sisterhood, and encourage everyone to live a more purposeful, fulfilling and conscious life, one day at a time and at their own pace.
Much love,
Anouk
