Green is the new Black:
a critical look at Greenwashing in the Organic Industry


floralWalk down the personal care isle of the supermarket isles and you might see 3 or 4 hair products with "organic" or "natural" ingredients or branded with an organic sounding name. Take a closer look at the label and you will soon realize that underneath the feel good name these products are still made of synthetic cleansers, include artificial fragrances and are chock full of preservatives.

True to label claim there may be ½ a percent of an organic essential oil or herbal extract but is this what we really expect as consumers when we read "organic" or "natural" on the label of a product?

Practices such as these are known as greenwashing. To be more specific, when a company or organization misleads consumers by claiming have green practices or sell green products without actually having any or limited basis for this claim, this is known as greenwashing.

Natural body and Food tips
Summer's nearly here, time to get thin!

Sandy Kumskov is our Holistic Counsellor at Sowelu has another idea......

Summer's nearly here, it's time to get to work losing that winter weight so your body can be beach ready!

At least that's what the magazines and TV shows and pharmacy chains and fitness centres and family and friends, and, well everyone really, would have you believe.

And if you don't want to do that this year, you might feel guilty about it. You might be feeling like 'there's no point anyway, it just comes back on' or you might really not like the obsessive cranky person you become when you are dieting.

So why would anyone want to do it?

What if there was another way? What if you could finally abandon all the diet-thinking and body-bashing and just get comfortable in your own skin?

Practitioner Profile
Everyone is turning to Natural medicine!!


Jess Hamilton has joined Sowelu as our in-house naturopath.  A qualified private practitioner, Jess will specialise in general healthcare also including children & infant health, pregnancy & preconception. 
Jess Hamilton
Some people may remember Jess from her distinguished career as a swimmer - she was twice a member of the Australian Swim Team.  As an elite sportsperson, Jess was able to see first hand, the benefits of naturopathy to her own health and fitness.  This sparked her interest in the subject and is now her profession.
 
Some of the related issues which Jess specialises in are:
  • Weight management
  • Skin conditions & Allergies
  • Detoxification & Dietary Planning
  • Fatigue & stress management
  • Menopause
  • Children & Infant health
So what is naturopathy? 

It's a field of medical care, firmly rooted in the western world, with a background much the same as conventional medicine.  Naturopaths study very similar classes to medical doctors (biology, biochemistry & physiology etc).  It works in companion (complimentary) with conventional medicine - not always instead (alternative), and looks at wellness as a total picture and assists the body to self heal through nutrition, supplements, herbs and lifestyle modifications.
 
Health rebates for consultations with Jess are claimable under most private health insurance.

Appointments can be made through Sowelu on 07 3367 1950 or email
