Organic September is here and this month I’m going to be celebrating all things organic and sharing some health, beauty and household organic products with you.
Every year The Soil Association runs a month long campaign which aims to raise awareness of organic products, and the brands, producers and farmers who bring them to us in the UK.
If you haven’t made the switch to organic products, then you can ‘Organic Your September’ by making simple and easy changes. Check out The Soil Association’s tips on 30 Ways to Organic Your September
I’ve shared that I regularly incorporate supplements in my daily routine. As part of Organic September I’ve discovered some new brands and today I’ll be sharing…

Overall I really enjoyed using these blends and will incorporate them in my daily routine. The voyager packs are a great way to sample each blend to find your favourite. They are also handy to take with you on short breaks.
I started off mixing each blend with just water to see what it tasted like. I actually don’t mind the taste, they don’t taste gross but some people might find it strong.
If you are looking for inspiration or feeling creative, the website has recipes for each blend
The website also has lots of tips and articles including 5 ways to combat stress , green pregnancy nutrition and foods to support breastfeeding.
