We use the word ‘recover’ a lot. The origins of Purica itself really began with our signature product Recovery Extra Strength all those miraculous years ago. But what does it mean to recover? What are you recovering from or to? And who are you in your ‘recovered’ state?
The word ‘recover’ itself points to a return of something; getting something back; re-establishing a normal state of being or sense of wholeness that once existed and was somehow 'lost'.
You may recognize when some aspect has 'recovered' because of how natural it feels. How it restores a sense of ease and power. With bright eyed wonder, and all the familiar feelings of coming home again, suddenly, there it is. A part of us has returns and we feel alive in it. You’ve probably had this experience. It’s a little like:
- Coming home and kicking off your shoes after a long tiring journey.
- Wearing underwear that just doesn’t fit right and makes everything feel all bunched up, awkward and ‘contorted’ down there (speaking for the men) or crawling into places nature never meant it to (for the women) and then triumphantly ripping it off, going ‘oh natural’. Ahhhh… Better! (You feel that right?)
- Moving from a state of chronic inflammation to a body and mind at ease, able to rest, recoup and restore.
- Landing settled within your own being and knowing it is good.
- The true restoration we seek.
For all this and more, we look to the ancient medicines and wisdom traditions when we’re talking about recovering true health of mind, body and energy. (Not just an idea of ‘health’ where the average is simply lowered and an ill health is now normalized, further hiding the depth of potential waiting within us to actually recover. This is all too common these days’. Experts’ included… Ok, Rant is over.) Throughout the wisdom traditions and ancient medicines we know what has stood throughout time, because it consistently worked across time and cultures, producing the kind of luminaries we want to see walking this world. No Instagram or flashy advertising to help keep it alive for thousands of year. No peppering you with advertisements. Just pure experience and depth and profound awareness of the human experience and how true health is a whole big affair. Including even aspects of ourselves, and the world around us, we may not be aware of. Traditions and luminaries that recognize the profound wholeness and potential in you waiting to be recovered. It seems a reasonable place to get inspiration from doesn’t it?
Recovery Is Empowerment
According to the ancient medicines and wisdom traditions, our true ‘normal’ is actually one of profound relaxation, shining clarity, vibrant awareness, and vast connection (which, as you may recognize, we name and curtail many of our products to match and support).
Our uncluttered, undisturbed, foundation is a mind at ease, a body in harmony, and energy in flow. And it’s damn good news to recognize our nature is actually the relaxation, vibrancy and clarity we so often seek; especially good news for those of us who feel far from it at times.
It’s never lost. Only temporarily covered up.
We repeat: It’s never lost. Only temporarily covered up.
Feel free to repeat this to yourself as well. (And you may add to that a triumphant ‘I am’!)
As the Chinese proverb goes — “Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are." This is our heart’s wish for you. And that’s what all our supplements and offerings are geared towards, whether working more on the mind, body, or energy.
Sometimes, true recovery starts as simply as the right words of wisdom, and sometimes it’s with a product like Recovery Extra Strength or 3.0. Named for their ability to help restore a baseline state of well being, using natural elements, so we may remember and get a taste of our innate vibrant ground of wellbeing. It’s working from the roots of wellness up. Not just treating symptoms of one issue (while often causing others) and calling it a job well done. That's unnatural dependancy. That is no sustainable way of well being. True help helps set you free.
Hopefully, in our growing efforts, you find the help you need, to recover what you truly are. Because true freedom exist without honouring the roots of who and what you are at your core. We’re big fans of the innate natural you. A wonder of life if there ever was one! Why wouldn’t we help support that!?
Anyone who questions that must be out of their natural clear mind!
Ps.
Recovery Extra Strength and, especially, Recovery 3.0, relieves the body’s chronic inflammatory response and the effects of this which, also has a calming effect on the mind, allowing our natural energy reserves to return. Energy levels that have been zapped from being in a constant state of stress, alertness and defence, which is what inflammation is. So if you’ve been working hard to calm the mind, but still find yourself hyper alert and overwhelmed at times, sometimes it’s rooted in the body being on high alert and chronically inflamed. Look into it. We hope it helps.
