Prakratik Living

Prakratik is Sanskrit for Natural. It is derived from Prakriti, which can also be defined as the primal force, and is considered to be the basic building block of the Universe, thus the basis of all creation.

And that is what Prakratik Living is all about, being one with nature, taking from it, giving back into it, completing the cycle, with little wasted, and whatever is, being recycled. Living natural is protecting and honouring our body, our spirit, our environment, our planet. It is questioning our consumerist status quo and being open to old wisdom and new insights.

Our intention is to initiate a movement towards living natural. A community endeavour that helps each of us to connect better with nature and our own selves. We are putting together a catalogue of every single product and service that resonates with our philosophy. And we are working to ensure that you can access them at your door step or at a store near you.
We believe that change is possible one step at a time. We are guided by our values system, which is made of 9 pillars:

- Natural
- Organic
- Healthy
- Pure
- Sustainable
- Mindful
- Local
- Encompassing
- Transparent

These are our guiding stars, our touchstones, our platinum standard for where we want to be. We are work in progress and we cannot do this alone, in fact we wouldnot want to, even if we could.

One of our principles is Ayurveda, which we define as Vedic Living,a holistic way of life that originates from the Vedas and is focused on every aspect of development: physical, mental, emotional, interpersonal and spiritual. Properly understood, it is not a religious process, and is relevant to anyone and everyone, no matter their religion or belief system. The principles are all all-embracing and are focused on balance, purpose, awareness, oneness and love.

There are no dos and donts. One is free to explore and learn. The principles are guidelines that have worked and will continue to do so because they are based on deep insights and wisdom that has come from experience.

For instance, once we accept that we are an intrinsic part of the universal fabric, we can start to follow the science of minimizing our environmental footprint and tread lighter. For e.g. Vedic Living recommends Sattvic vegetarian food as it is the least exploitative towards nature, and with awareness one can balance even that. Also a wholesome vegetarian diet is easier for our body and has a balancing effect on our consciousness.

The building blocks of such a lifestyle are based on strong and fundamental blocks including the Vedas, with insights from Nature and Ayurvedic experts.

Prakratik Living is a positive and experiential way of being that respects nature and seeks to achieve harmony with it. It is meant for those that are willing to go that extra to find products and services that resonate with their wanting to be more gentle with life.

And together we can make this the future of living.
