tanya maidment from greenlifeorganics
I'm a Mum, business owner, environmentalist, singer, truth seeker, writer and
essential oil lover! I love connecting with like minded people and I am so
pleased that you are here! My passion is educating about the power of plant
medicine and empowering families around the world to live happier, healthier and
more sustainable lives, as well as achieving financial and time freedom. Let me
tell you where it all started! I have always had a fascination for our
environment. Fossils and nature intrigued me and I went on to study geology at
university. For many years I worked as an exploration geologist then a
hydro-geologist. I learnt many things, including how delicate and fragile our
environment is, and how important it is that we respect it. It made me think
about where our drinking water comes from, where it goes to and how vulnerable
our water supplies are to pollution. I discovered that pollutants from everyday
household rubbish can easily (and quickly) end up in our drinking water, and
many of these pollutants are readily bought off the shelf in our local
supermarkets. It made me really start thinking about what and how much I was
throwing away. Then I became a mother! After the birth of my son, I became even
more interested in how our environment, and the products that we use, could
affect our health. I discovered that we are surrounded by an increasing range of
toxins, carcinogens, and irritants in common use around the home, garden and
workplace. Products we eat, breathed or put on our skin every day! I was
horrified and decided that something had to change. So I started looking for
solutions and GreenLifeOrganics began. I believe that our health and our
environment are interlinked in ways that we will never fully understand, but if
we strive to improve our environment, then there is a good chance that our
health will benefit. And if we all make small changes towards leading a
healthier and more sustainable life, then there is a good chance that our
environment will benefit.
