Clean and Green! Only with eSutras!

By



Everyone has that favorite piece of clothing they can't live without. You'd wear it everyday if you could! And when you use the detergents and cleansers lining the aisles of the supermarket today: colors begin to fade almost immediately, using too much irritates your skin because of the harmful chemicals in them, or god forbid bleach accidentally spills and your favorite shirt is ruined forever! Say good bye to all of that when you use eSutras (baby-safe) Soap Nuts Laundry Kit! Our organic kit includes:
  • 4 ounces of organic soap nuts, which contains an organic compound known as saponin. It acts naturally as a detergent that effectively cleans the most delicate material & the toughest stains.
  • 2 muslin bags with ties, our bags contain to artificial dyes, so no worries about colors bleeding onto your clothes.
  • 1 floral dryer companion pack.
How to wash: Place 2 or 3 whole soap nuts into one of the muslin bags, tie tightly, and just drop into the washing machine.
How to dry: Place the floral companion pack into the second included muslin bag, tie tightly, and place in the dryer as an alternative to dryer sheets.
Some Helpful tips:
  • For heavily soiled loads, use hot water and gently crack the soap nut shells to release extra saponin.
  • Soap nuts can be re-used up to 4 times! After washing, let the nuts dry to save for another use.
  • When all the saponin from the soap nut shell is used up, the shell will remain soggy after drying and have a grayish color. This is when you'll know to toss them!
For use as a Natural Laundry Detergent, you can use them in another way:
  • Boil 12-15 whole Soap Nuts in 6 cups (1.5 quart) of water for 30 minutes. The liquid you have is now a concentrated, chemical free detergent. The leftover shells can be placed in your compost. Use 3 Tbsp or 45 ml of this.
Now you can have fresh, clean laundry without all the chemicals!

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

By
Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.
