"Effective self-care has to start from the inside

"Effective self-care has to start from the inside out. It's about being responsible for yourself, your wellbeing, and for refueling. A lot of women think that taking care of themselves is a luxury, selfish and feel guilty when taking time out for themselves.
Taking care of yourself is an integral part to taking care of your family.
When you have the time to refuel you can give more.
Can you pour from an empty cup? Can you give if your cup is empty? What do you have to give if you are not refueling? Nothing.
Remember, don't aim to be a superwoman, aim to be a sustainable woman." @haleh_banani in the Mindful Hearts Academy.

What do you do to refuel yourself?

Much of mental health and living a life that is tayyibah, or a life that is aligned with our fitrah, can be found in the Islamic Tradition. The four pillars of Noble Manners, which are drawn from the forty hadith of Imam An-Nawawi, summarize what it means to have a good conduct. These simple, yet profound, pillars affect our state of being and our connectedness to our fitrah. They are:
1. Say a word that is good or be silent.
2. Leave that which does not concern you.
3. Do not become angry.
4. Love for your brother what you love for yourself.❤️

When we started our research on Organic Food Sourc

When we started our research on Organic Food Sources in and around Cairo last year, we faced the question whether or not we should include hydroponics. With no organic certification body or organisation available in Egypt, we based our decision on what organic means according to the European Law 2007/834; 2008/889; 2008/1235. According to this law "Organic plant production is based on nourishing the plants primarily through the soil ecosystem. Therefore hydroponic cultivation should not be allowed.".
Based on this law, we decided not to include hydroponics within our research. When we visited @makarfarms , to our surprise we saw that they grow vegetables and herbs hydroponically and organically. We had a good conversation with the owner about these two growing techniques, and taking into consideration the water shortage that Egypt might experience in the future, like South Africa did three years ago, maybe the definition of organic should be reevaluated and include hydroponics?
What are your thoughts about this?🌿 Let us know in the comments below.

Look at all these goodies!
We recently visited @makarfarms and did you know that endives aren't originally Belgian? Neither did we!
Go check out our new article to read more about our visit, hydroponics and the real origin of endives 😉.

In our previous post we mentioned an Egyptian, ethical fashion and lifestyle company.
Where do you shop, or what do you do to reduce the amount of textile waste?

Did you know that the fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world? According to an article on BBC.com, 92 million tonnes of textiles waste is created globally and this number is expected to rise to 134 million tonnes a year by 2030.

The problem with the current fashion industry is mass producing low-quality clothing for a cheap price. This type of clothing is usually worn a couple of times before it starts getting worse after every wash. As a result, it gets lost to landfill. Another problem is that we are living in a consumerist society that is promoting fast fashion as pleasurable and addictive. We are manipulated into thinking that buying more will make us happier.
But does it really?

Instead of continuously buying more, we need to:
- buy high-quality clothing
- buy what we need
- start making our own clothing
- buy from ethical and local companies

@doodlefactoryegypt is an example of an Egyptian ethical fashion and lifestyle company that makes its products by working together with children, empowering them to make art, and to use their art for their designs. A percentage of their profit goes back to those children for their medical needs, support,...etc. As consumers we have a lot of powers in our hands and we need to use it wisely.
Swipe to have a look at a brief introduction video to Doodle Factory by @yasmeenkhamis .

(And oh, keep an eye on our page for a podcast we will soon share about The Idea of Happiness in The Qur'an with a very special guest. The problem of consumerism will also be addressed.😉)

Farmers' markets are a great way to get to know the producer behind the food that you buy. This face-to-face conversation creates trust and transparency between the two parties.
For our project on Organic Food Providers we are collaborating with organic farms in and around Cairo to get to know more about their supply, their owner and their way of farming.
Swipe to see a short video of the owner of @emoshas_organic_food who has answered some of our questions that are part of our research.
Click the link in our bio to watch the full video. We would like to thank all the farms who are helping us with this project.💚
