Firstly, don't worry if you are waiting on more Natural Skincare recipes! I have taken the decision to continue this theme on an ongoing basis, so stay tuned for both aforementioned recipes (such as the beard oils &amp; lip balms), plus more recipes which have not even been dreamed up yet! They could very well be Seasonal too, so make sure you're subscribed to the YouTube channel HERE, or follow onTwitter HERE.  If you prefer PInterest find it HERE.  Look out for other platforms being added this year too","content":"<p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/b8dv8ce1wjuoumsqew2pjrbsxwio8zvg7reebv07d4klxdhi.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"b8dv8ce1wjuoumsqew2pjrbsxwio8zvg7reebv07d4klxdhi.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>What will this year bring for us all?

Personally, I took up the new hobby of CROCHET during December. I had unexpectedly rediscovered the old crochet hook my late Mum had gifted me when i was 10yrs old. I thought it was long gone in house moves, so you can imagine my delight!<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/ce2ngktbne0jal6i0yrkapik4ysrjcvdcoih81sblnxs93bb.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"ce2ngktbne0jal6i0yrkapik4ysrjcvdcoih81sblnxs93bb.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>Not content with beginning on a square blanket, I decided to try a dress! The plan is to keep me cosy, while i use less heating - good for the environment &amp; brings heating bills down. We can all do with bringing bills down, for sure! Make sure you stay ahead with Egeiro Naturals updates on the socials - including some crochet..specifically, Tunisian Crochet...this is the dress so far!<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/bzy4befxquqrdfboha2utlno6jbo7zhqt8om5hiunk0xd81c.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"bzy4befxquqrdfboha2utlno6jbo7zhqt8om5hiunk0xd81c.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>I\u2019m also looking forward to making some creations with a silk yarn I bought late November. It is a gorgeous soft yarn in warm PEACH. I had spotted it in a bargain deal &amp; couldn't resist.<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/ecetg0l8cobdq4hnmu7iokm7iujbhyozzdsb01p7zproawxc.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"ecetg0l8cobdq4hnmu7iokm7iujbhyozzdsb01p7zproawxc.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>I have since found out that the 2024 colour theme is \u201c PEACH FUZZ\u201d. How serendipitous!<\/p><p>Apparently other 2024 themes are surrounding such things as Sustainability, Authenticity, Nurturing &amp; Connecting with others. So 2024 promises to bring so much FUN &amp; things to look forward to!<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/kd9hgaby6e880lr2jer9wuj3h2665igt7mqtuxoicpqubtfw.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"kd9hgaby6e880lr2jer9wuj3h2665igt7mqtuxoicpqubtfw.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>Interestingly, one of the main trends currently developing, is Organic Cotton! This is something i am particularly excited about because it promotes the new way we are reducing landfill by recycling our clothes - something which Egeiro Naturals has been promoting recently! Not only does Egeiro Naturals sell Organic Cotton Clothing but also RECYCLED cotton garments (look out for \u2018Remill\u2019 in product titles). You can also return your products for recycling once you have finished with them!<\/p><p>Follow this link <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/egeironaturals.com\/product\/ladies-sustainable-energy-hoodie\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a> to Egeiro Naturals\u2019 NEW Sustainable Energy Hoodie (scroll down product page to customise or change garment type!)<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/ulcpoviaq7jzfzdnucrfpuqo9m54a1dxx5lbpzxjiuthklod.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"ulcpoviaq7jzfzdnucrfpuqo9m54a1dxx5lbpzxjiuthklod.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>So you are \u201cSaving The Planet\u201d THREE TIMES when you buy from Egeiro Naturals! We offer \u2018guilt free shopping\u2019 (look out for offers such as \u201cBuy One Get One Tree\u201d where a tree gets planted with every purchase) but you are reducing landfill when you return your items (excluding refunds). On top of this, all products are print on demand &amp; made using Renewable Energy!<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/qtw9xqz2nbwrstkiiqwimbwku7wfflsrt3iq8iumi8qznrvg.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"qtw9xqz2nbwrstkiiqwimbwku7wfflsrt3iq8iumi8qznrvg.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>Follow this link <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/egeironaturals.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a> to browse all our products &amp; collections You will be pleased you did! Whether you are looking for a gift, or yourself, it is always worth spending when it helps the planet in so many ways!<\/p><p>Organic Cotton also has health benefits, being breathable, good for the skin PLUS keeping us warm in Winter &amp; cool in Summer.<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/air4lcslktibiocjsh4h9cciuuxmnqvox2up4zscfvj99bqn.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"air4lcslktibiocjsh4h9cciuuxmnqvox2up4zscfvj99bqn.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/><\/p><p>I love this next bit too! 2024 jewellery themes are going to be Rose Quartz &amp; Pearls!<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/pen6d9mibahbcsrmq7ei6iq810xdahk0xnw9diaph4urty8w.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"pen6d9mibahbcsrmq7ei6iq810xdahk0xnw9diaph4urty8w.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>Pearls are undoubtably beautiful &amp; symbolise wisdom, purity &amp; protection but they are also seen as luxurious, attracting abundance, as well as symbolic of nurturing, so perfectly marry with this year's themes of connection, softness &amp; caring\u2026(they also happen to be my birthstone, which I love!)<\/p><p>The Rose Quartz trend equally delights me, as I have worked with crystals for countless years (I would often incorporate crystal therapy in my holistic massage business &amp; it was quite popular). This semi precious gemstone also sits perfectly with 2024 themes, as it's known for promoting unconditional love both for ourselves &amp; others, improving our relationships &amp; connections and generally bringing harmony into our lives.<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/xmho9eoac6wluyduakwpvophupiigdxpcxvovzovojel1w5w.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"xmho9eoac6wluyduakwpvophupiigdxpcxvovzovojel1w5w.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>Crystals (especially Quartz which is even used in our phones, computers &amp; watches), are known for holding the vibrations of the Earth itself (similar to how storage heaters operate). They work by interacting with our own electromagnetic fields (we have a few - the brain &amp; heart have their own individual electromagnetic fields which work in sync with our overall field\/aura, when we are operating in balance).<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/zms0jorjeofe7lnjp8n2p7iloqctb3amoc5nyz3fabyn6cyr.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"zms0jorjeofe7lnjp8n2p7iloqctb3amoc5nyz3fabyn6cyr.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>There is much to say on crystals. They deserve a blog all of their own - which i may well write in future! However, in short, they can \u2018reset\u2019 our energetic fields to bring us back to a balance\/centre. Energetic balance can be achieved in many other ways (eg Reiki, a Japanese energy healing system) but having used crystals for years, I can say they are a very useful tool to have on hand!\u2026Plus they look gorgeous, so bring joy even before we touch them.<\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/vkulv5sfqqfmqvs5onuf5fia5zy7afreufinuwrvwt7xjqkm.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" alt=\"vkulv5sfqqfmqvs5onuf5fia5zy7afreufinuwrvwt7xjqkm.jpg.jpg?w=1140&amp;v=2\" \/>We nearly disappeared down a rabbit hole there!..Another time!..Back to the here &amp; now which at this moment offers a blank page in front of us to write our own destiny! What are your hopes for the next 12 months? Top tip - list them on paper &amp; pin them to the fridge, I can almost guarantee you will achieve 80% of them this way!..but most of all have fun!\u2026&amp; bring as much joy as possible, to others along the way\u2026<\/p><p>Until next time, take care of yourself.
