I don't know about you, but after the last few crazy years we've had, I'm approaching my New Year's rituals a little differently...
Normally, after a couple of days off after Christmas, I'm off in a mad frenzy - channeling Marie Kondo to blitz the house, writing resolutions and a bucket list for the year. This completely unfounded belief that we have to "be better" (and that the process has to start January 1st without fail!) is built on the conditioning of society and consumerism; it's a sneaky way of making us vulnerable and as a result, more malleable.
This year, I'm consciously choosing to take back control. I'm planning on doing it with one little word that I'll use as a reference for each decision I make. The word is SUPPORT, and the question I'll be asking myself is "how does this support me?". Whether it's about who I spend time with, what I read or watch, or as fundamental as what I eat or drink, this is the word I'm using to check my intention.
At Koru Pantry we're passionate about ensuring our offerings are more than just a delicious drink. We want to support you in your health, and support you in creating time and space for connection - whether that be with yourself, those you love, or even with those new friends we're yet to meet...
To begin with, we're ensuring we incorporate a daily cup or two of "Clean up your Act". It's a nourishing caffeine free brew that is rich in minerals, phenols and Vitamin C. Some of its ingredients such as Liquorice, Schisandra Berries, Sarsaparilla & Burdock Root are traditionally used for adrenal, immune, liver and kidney support, with anti-inflammatory and adaptogenic qualities that can be particularly helpful in countering stress!
Created in consultation with our inspiring friend, Western Herbalist and Nutritionist Sam Murphy, this is the first step in our support system to start off the New Year in a loving, self kind way. It is NOT a punishment "detox" for "indulgences" over Christmas - what is life without some joy? It's simply a step to support our move forward to greet the challenges and growth of new beginnings.
To help you in this we are offering 10% off any size package of Clean up your Act (cylinders or refills) that you purchase. Simply use the code "CUYAsupport"
And when the kettle is boiled, and you sit down for your first cup, we'd encourage you to turn off your phone, pick your favourite chair, and just pause for 5 minutes as you drink it with your intention clearly focussed on self care.
