Back to Basics
Reviving Simpler Ways
In a world that constantly seems to speed up, filled with technology, distractions, and an endless list of things to do, it can be refreshing and grounding to slow down and return to the basics. Back to Basics rediscovers the lost art of doing things – the joy of life’s essentials, finding peace in everyday routines, and embracing a more intentional, mindful way of being.
At its heart, Back to Basics returns to simple living. Reconnecting with age-old skills that generations before us relied on—skills like cooking from scratch, growing your own food, and learning to live with less but appreciate more. In the kitchen, it means moving away from processed foods and embracing the art of preparing meals with fresh ingredients, cultivating connections at the table with family and friends and allowing the space to enjoy the simple things together.
Sometimes the simplest things are the most profound. Going back to basics is not about abandoning progress, it’s a rediscovery of nourishing every part of life.
Old School Living
Old school teachings are rooted in timeless wisdom, passed down through generations, that emphasise patience, hard work, and a deep connection to the natural world. Returning to quality over quantity, where the process itself is just as important as the outcome, and where respect for tradition enriches our modern lives with purpose and balance.
Garden to Table
Garden-to-table is a celebration of freshness, sustainability, and the simple joys of growing your own food. It’s about cultivating a connection to what we eat by planting, nurturing, and harvesting ingredients right from your own backyard (or balcony!).
Apothecary
Using oils and apothecary remedies to nourish the body is a practice as old as time, rooted in nature’s abundant gifts. For centuries, people have turned to essential oils, herbs, and natural infusions to support health, heal ailments, and soothe the soul. These ancient recipes, passed down through generations, rely on the power of plants and oils that God has created—like lavender for calming, peppermint for digestion, and eucalyptus for respiratory support.
