Vision & Mission
Our goals are to increase transparency within our community and help share expertise and resources to anyone on a journey towards a healthier, more natural lifestyle.
For people just starting out on their journey, we want to make it easier for them to find the relevant resources they need to progress. For those of us who have some experiences and recommendations to share, we want to make it easier to share them and help reach the people that are looking for them.
For the professionals offering support, coaching or any other services linked to our mission, we want them to be discovered and help get them the visibility they deserve both globally and in their local communities.

Because we feel that, as a community, there are no easy ways to know what the people we trust recommend in terms of brands to trust, resources that help and professionals giving the best support.
At present, these recommendations are scattered among facebook groups, Instagram feeds & stories, and maybe some blogs or websites.
We want everyone to discover the incredible richness of what’s available today to learn more and progress. There is a strong movement at work towards a healthier lifestyle but also a lot of misinformation everywhere.
Our aim is to increase transparency, discoverability and serendipity.
Yes, absolutely. It doesn’t matter what you think of your expertise or value to others: you have valuable and useful feedback to offer to others. If a few resources have helped you getting started, then please join and share them with everyone.
Yes please. You can choose your username though, but since our goal is increased transparency, we insist on real names.
Absolutely not. Saying that our lifestyle is a main factor behind many chronic and non-communicable diseases and that we should adjust it with preventative health in mind doesn’t mean we are anti medicine. On the contrary, combine the power of the two and you’re in the best place possible.
Resources
The clothing resources present on the community are there because they offer sustainably produced options you can use to even further shift your lifestyle towards a more natural and sustainable one.
We all share the same vision that natural environments are our best playgrounds and just a great place to spend time in for our mental health. Let’s keep them as pristine as possible by choosing sustainable alternatives where we can.
Sustainable products are great but they also need to fit into our wider vision of being beneficial for our health.
While that’s not so much a consideration for most brands, it is for some. So a great sustainable footwear alternative that isn’t minimalist and aligns with a barefoot-like ideal feel won’t be added.
We’re all about inclusivity and want to list resources that can help others in their journey regardless of where they’re at and what their own personal goals are.
Some of us are already living a lifestyle that is pretty different from the standard modern lifestyle, but some of us are only just starting and need transitional resources, at least at first or maybe even as a personal end goal.
For example, some of us avoid all processed food, and might tick at seeing processed food listed. But for those of us just starting on their journey, knowing that there are “better processed” food brands is super useful. It might just be the difference between starting on this journey because it seems a bit easier, and not starting at all.
We’re trying to include any resources that might be helpful for some of us. If they don’t seem to fit our stated mission in your eyes, please consider that they do for others.
