Overthinking...


Hi Catity Cat Cats!

So lately I've been thinking about many things, some of them good, and some of them bad as usual, in fact I came to a resolution. We Cant be always happy, but in fact we can try to forget things that make us sad.

Sometimes it can be really difficult to be happy in some circumstances, but it's on our hands to change those facts, you can't always overthink, overthinking is probably one of the greatest problems everybody has, me included.
Overthinking can give you stress, bad toughs, bad mood and all the other bad related stuff, overthinking can also lead your head to see things that are not there and you just imagined. You'll always see things that doesn't exist if you think to much about something...

I'll give you some tips to forget about your problems and start to live your life more peacefully in some cases.
 1 - STOP (You're the one who's creating most of your problems)
 2 - Go OUT! (Stay home won't do anything)
 3 - Surround by your friends (The same has I mentioned above, stay alone wont do any good)
 4 - Meditation (Relax and stay calm)
 5 - Distract with something that make you happy!
 6 - Don't try to be perfect.
 7 - Move On (I know it might be difficult, but sometimes is the best way to solve problems)

If there's something that is making you overthink or something that make you sad, try to follow one of this steps. It might be has hard has it can get, but you can change it, be happy for your own sake! We don't want any Sad Cats around here. But if you're sad, The Cat Is Organic will be here to help you out.

Need to change your life? Begin with your bedroom!!



Hi Catity Cat Cats!!


This week I've been wiling to change somethings in my life, so I've decided to recover an old habit that I used to do whenever I needed to forget something or someone. CHANGE MY BEDROOM!



And this is the advise i'm going to share with you... 
This change is like a major clean up for your room and also your life, get rid of something that's been bothering you and bring fresh air to your room and new horizons to your life. It's really simple, I advise you to prepare it first, think about the new options and ideas. Draw sketches of your new room, bring those curtains you love so much and you forgot you had back, change some pictures, posters, put some decorative candles. It's all up to you.

This is a change that you need to do all by yourself, choose some happy song to guide you and sing it as loud as you can, forget about what the neighbors might think, choose a song that makes you happy even tough it can be kinda embarrassing. :)

In the end, call some of your greatest friends and invite them to your new and reformulated room, they might even not know the difference, but it's there, grab a movie, a fun game and do something together. Enjoy the happiness that your small change brought your and forget about the problems you just left behind.

You need to know that you're the one who's in charge of your life and your bedroom, so step up and change, think positive and be happy!

Lady talking: The Lunette Menstrual Cup


Never heard about it??Well-Well LADIES what have you been missing!!!


The Lunette menstrual cup is a reusable menstrual protection product made in Finland. It is an easy-to-use, safe, and hygienic alternative to pads and tampons. By using the cup, you will help protect the environment, save money, and get peace of mind. Just fold, insert like a tampon and it collects blood rather than absorbs it. You empty it rather than change it — a little bit different.



The Cat  has just tried and he is amazed at how effective it was!
He got his “Clear” model (also available in Purple/“Cynthia”, Green/“Diana”, Yellow /“Lucia”, Blue/“Selene” and Orange/“Áine” ) from Lunette. The cup cames along in a satin-like pouch and offers 2 available sizes.


The “pros” of it are sooooo many that our advice is DO IT, because:

-You'll be cutting down considerably on household waste!

-You'll never have to be embarrassed about the contents of your bathroom trash again!

-It´s far cheaper in the long run, as one of these can last you for 10 years if you take care of it!

-It´s safer, more comfortable, and more sanitary than tampons!

-Won´t leech chemicals& paper fibres into your body like tampons!


-It´s Eco-friendly as there's no paper/plastic/cotton waste!

-Doesn't create a dank/gross smell like pads, as it wont collect/harbor bacteria from outside your body!

- You'll never have to deal again with the stress of running low on "supplies" again!

-A cup holds a quite a lot more fluid than other menstrual products and doesn't need to be tended to near as often, leaking far less if used properly!

-Very easy to use once you get the hang of it!

-Easy to care for: rinse in water after emptying it (or just wipe it down if you're in a public restroom) and boil it for 5-10 minutes after your period is done!

- It needs to be emptied only two to four times a day and can be used overnight!

- It's IUD-compatible as well, which is important for women using that method of birth control!  

- It´s designed for women of all ages and sizes!


It´s just PURRFECT! 
Tampons or pads, Never-Ever again!

Copo Menstrual Lunette?Um copo??Menstrual???Sim!Nunca ouviram falar? Bem MENINAS,trata-se APENAS da grande inovação deste século que veio revolucionar a forma como lidamos com a menstruação!

Fabricado na Finlândia, o copo menstrual Lunette é um produto de protecção menstrual reutilizável, sendo este uma alternativa fácil de usar, segura e higiénica e bastante mais saudável em alternativa aos comuns tampões e pensos!
Este, além de ajudar a proteger o meio ambiente, ajuda também economizar dinheiro e atingir muita paz de espírito!
Para o efeito deverá apenas adquiri-lo (segue mais abaixo o link), dobra-lo (este é bastante flexível), inseri-lo tal como se fosse um tampão e este deverá por sucção colectar o sangue, em vez de absorvê-lo!
Assim,a grande diferença é que ao contrário do tampão, ao invés de o mudar,deverá apenas esvazia-lo e reutiliza-lo novamente!
No final do ciclo deverá fervê-lo,guarda-lo  religiosamente no seu saquinho de cetim colorido (vendido juntamente com o copo), e esperar descontraidamente pelo mês seguinte!

O The Cat is Organic já experimentou e ficou absolutamente maravilhado com a sua eficácia e conforto!O modelo usado foi o "Clear"  da Lunette (disponível em http://www.pegada-verde.pt/index.php/higiene-intima.html). Além da cor transparente, existem outras  cores disponíveis: Roxo / "Cynthia", Verde / "Diana", Amarelo / "Lucia", Azul / "Selene" e Laranja / "Áine".Estes modelos são vendidos em dois tamanhos, e para o seu transporte fazem-se ainda acompanhar pela referida adorável e colorida bolsinha de cetim!

Mas afinal o que torna este copo tão especial e indubitavelmente preterível aos vulgares  meios de protecção menstrual?

-Reduzem consideravelmente o nosso lixo doméstico!
-Nunca mais necessitará de esconder o conteúdo do lixo da casa de banho!
- É muito mais barato pois a longo prazo,  cada copo, se bem cuidado,poderá durar até 10 anos!
- É mais seguro , mais confortável e mais higiénico do que tampões e os pensos!
-Não contém produtos químicos nem fibras de papel prejudiciais para o seu corpo!
- É Eco-Friendly pois não contém desperdícios como papel, plástico ou algodão!
-Não estando o deposito em contacto com a pele, não gera “aquele” cheiro nem aloja bactérias no seu interior que em contacto com a pele se tornam prejudiciais (como será o caso dos tampões!)
- Nunca mais terá que ir a correr de urgência para o supermercado mais próximo comprar tampões ou pensos!(ufffa)
-O copo se usado correctamente, aloja bastante mais fluido do que outros produtos menstruais e podem ser mudados com menos frequência que os demais ! Além disso, dão azo a menos acidentes!
- Quando apanha o jeito,é muito fácil de usar!
- É de fácil manutenção:basta apenas passar por água depois de esvaziá-lo duas a quatro vezes por dia(ou limpa-lo, se estiver numa casa de banho pública) e no final do período, fervê-lo por 5-10 minutos!
- Pode ser utilizado confortavelmente durante a noite!
- É compatível com o DIU!
- Foi idealizado para mulheres de todas as idades e tamanhos!


Em suma, não poderia ser mais é mais perfeito!
O The Cat is Organic está super fã e espera que as nossas gatinhas-leitoras também!

What´s your skin eating?



Though we still don’t know for sure what percentage of the chemicals we put on our bodies everyday is absorbed into the blood stream, the fact that it happens should be enough to motivate us to be more careful. For your health and the health of those you love, look at your skin in a different way—when you put something on it, imagine that substance inside your body. 


People used to think the skin was an impenetrable barrier, blocking anything from entering (or exiting) the body. After all, if it wasn’t, we wouldn’t be able to take a shower without bloating up with water, right?
Now we know better. Skin does provide a barrier to the world, but not an impenetrable one. Stay in the bath long enough and you’ll see—skin absorbs water to a certain extent, which is why it wrinkles.

The Importance and Benefits of the DIY Lifestyle



Our Sundays are dedicated to DIY, because:
It's Cheaper! 
It's Healthier!
It's Eco-Friendly! 
And it's Fun! 
As an hobby,it can enhance our well-being and can give more meaning to our life. Just as physical exercise is important for the body, cognitive relaxation, i.e. relaxation of the mind is also essential. The creative forces of energy present in everyone should not be repressed. In fact studies reveal that people who cultivate themselves through such activities are less likely to suffer from anxieties, rage, depression and other negative feelings.

For all the Honey Bunnies

We present you our newest love:


Dr.Russell
Honey&Rose Nourishing Face/Body Cream(for dry skin)

Inspired by the oldest face/body cream recipe in the world (invented  in the 9th century, nearly 2,000 years ago!!) by a Greek physician*, our version added the ancient recipe some extra nourishing ingredients such as Honey, leaving dry skin super moisturized and smelling lovely Honey&Roses!It is also amazing  to remove Make Up! and for Body Massages!


Curiosities:
In 1814 a poem credited "Dr. Russell" talks about a pot of this cream offered to a lady named Eliza.In this poem it gives account of the benefits attributed to the cream in question.




Honey Bunny it here:https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=758508267499200&set=pb.554485917901437.-2207520000.1382120053.&type=3&theater

*Aelius Galenus or Claudius Galenus (AD 129–c. 200/c. 216), better known as Galen of Pergamon (modern-day BergamaTurkey), was a prominent Roman (of Greek ethnicity) physiciansurgeon and philosopher. Arguably the most accomplished of all medical researchers of antiquity, Galen contributed greatly to the understanding of numerous scientific disciplines, including anatomy,physiologypathology,pharmacology,and neurology, as well as philosophy and logic.

There are many misconceptions that animal testing is required on products or that it is the most effective way to see how a product works on humans. That is simply not true!
There are still a lot of quite famous cosmetic brands that (such as L'Oreal-Kiehl's,Kerastase,LaRoche Posay,Lâncome,Maybelline etc. -Johnson & Johnson,Estee Lauder,Dove,L’Occitane,Clinique,Pantene etc.) DO test on animals!

"Autumn truly is what summer pretends to be:  the best of all seasons.  It is as glorious as summer is tedious; as subtle as summer is obvious; as refreshing as summer is wearying. Autumn seems like paradise."

Gregg Easterbrook


Autumn is definitely my favorite time of the year, unfortunately it flies by in a flash!In Autumn the days have cooled down, the leaves have turned, and the world is busy preparing for something new: the winter,school,going back to job...i love this feeeling of starting something new! And there's also something magical in the air wich brings the first smell of the woodstove or the fireplace.When i tell my friends that i prefer Autumn to our looong exasperating hot (Portuguese) Summer they would eye me with a strange look,how could i prefer it to the days of summer?well....just take a look at the beautiful images above and maybe autumn will become your favorite season too!;)
