Fact: Oils Rule Everything Around Me (and My Self Care Routine). 

So much so, there is barely a domestic pleasure practice I routinely indulge in that doesn’t get oily.

My days are bookended by oil. In the morning, I awaken my tired face with a gentle oil cleanse and a warm face cloth, comfortably reminiscent of the hot towels they used to offer you on long-haul flights. 

Post shower, I massage handfuls of botanically-spiked oils across my body with an ambition to emerge from the bathroom like a glistening steamed wonton.

Before I sit down at my desk and gaze down the barrel of unopened emails – a few drops of CBD oil lingers momentarily under my tongue. 

When I blend my AM sustenance into the form of a pinkish smoothie – a capful of flax oil included for my awkwardly clicky joints. 

When I imbibe my comically-large daily buffet of vitamins, minerals, and–of course–antidepressants; a soft gelatin capsule of vegan omega is included in the mix.

My lunch salad is splashed (read: saturated!) with avocado oil, and my evening skincare routine commences with another face-oil cleanse; massaging away the remnants of my attempt at the Julia Fox eye with vigour. 

Once a week, I apply drops of Argan Oil to my bleach-deranged tresses and castor oil to cheerlead the growth of my eyelashes and brows.

Countless times daily I massage almond oil into my nerve-ravaged cuticles. 

So, when my friend Claudia recently mentioned to me that she made time for a morning ‘oil pull,’ my attention was quite literally piqued. 

“Basically,” she explained, “You swish a bunch of oil around your mouth and in between your teeth for a handful of minutes, then spit it out. It pulls out all the gross stuff.” 

Two minutes and a few browser tab-clicks later, this ritual was confirmed to be in my very near future. 

Also called Kavala or Gundusha, this Ayurvedic practice has been cited by holistic practitioners for centuries to improve gut flora and reduce intestinal diseases. 

Others say this ritual has the potential to eliminate bacteria in plaque, which can strengthen teeth, gums, and the jaw while also preventing tooth decay, dry throat, and cracked lips. 

Further benefits like whitened teeth, vocal clarity, and sensory enhancement have also been applauded by wellness punters and experts alike. 

Either way, Claudia has one of the most mega megawatt smiles I have ever seen, so I was absolutely willing to try.

Like most holistic therapies born outside the Western medical plane, there is little evidence or scientific research that can attest to these claims, so my report on its efficacy is primarily anecdotal. 

What I will say is that this ritual for me is time well spent. Here’s how I went about it.

Wake up and swill the coconuts.
 Oil pulling is a game changer for optimal oral health. Keeko's supercharged sachets serve up an individual portion of raw certified organic cold pressed coconut, lemon, chamomile, myrrh, peppermint and spearmint oils to effectively clean, detoxify and nourish teeth and gums.
 <meta charset="utf-8">Unlike chemical filled mouthwashes, oil pulling reduces the amount of harmful bacteria in the mouth without disrupting the natural pH balance, and works to nourish the oral microbiome by f<meta charset="utf-8">lushing out bad bacteria species and plaque that lead to bad breath, <meta charset="utf-8">gum inflammation, gingivitis and cavities.
 
 
 HOW TO USE START 1. Massage sachet to warm coconut oil if it has hardened (this is normal in cold climates) 2. Open sachet and pour oil into mouth. Gently swish and swirl around your mouth for 5 – 10 minutes, or until you feel the oil transforms into water. 3. Spit into a tissue and place in the bin. Do not spit down the drain or in your toilet as this can clog pipes. 4. Repeat once a day for 14 days for best results, or as needed when your mouth feels like an extra spring clean! 
 If you are pregnant or breastfeeding you should consult your doctor before using this product. HOW TO USE END

Morning Mint Oil Pulling Sachets 140ml

After researching a little online (my #1 hobby,) I decided to perform this ritual as soon as I got up in the morning; pre-coffee and existential dread. 

That way, all the toxins that had accumulated atop my mouth’s resident microbiome overnight would be kindly escorted into the bin.

The practice itself is a delicate dance of both deep satisfaction and fear of gagging, so I suggest starting small (a few teaspoons swilled for five minutes) before promoting your mouth to the suggested half-a-mouthful for 15-20 minutes. 

I found it a wonderful time to wander around the quiet house watering my plants while plugged into a podcast. What I loved the most about the process was the gratifying emission of the oil once my time was up (into a cup and the bin – no oil down the drain please!) 

After two weeks, my teeth are whiter, my mouth feels shinier and I’ve only accidentally spat out the oil once or twice (nobody saw!)

 What my dentist thinks of this new ritual… well, I'll get back to you after my appointment next month.

Promising multiple benefits to your oral health and beyond, this daily Ayurvedic ritual is worth your time.

Wonderclean Team Toothpaste & Toothbrush Set

Whiten and refresh with the Coconut Mint Whitening Pen: a two-in-one teeth brightening and detoxifying tool.
 Made with low levels of food grade hydrogen peroxide, our mighty pen brightens teeth, gently and naturally, without irritation. Lighten your tooth enamel and combat troublesome stains.
 EDITORS NOTES START
 Increasingly, we are learning the importance of a healthy oral microbiome. It’s not just about a sparkling smile and fresh breath (as much as we all desire those). The oral microbiome is made up of 700 species of bacteria living inside your mouth (including the teeth, tongue, hard palate, gums and areas surrounding) and maintaining the correct balance of these good and bad bacterias is the cornerstone of good health.
 An imbalance can lead to inflammation and disease, which inside your mouth can manifest in decay, gingivitis, and oral thrush. Beyond the mouth, almost half of the bacteria found in the oral microbiome also reside in the gut - therefore an imbalance in the mouth can also lead to problems in the gut, immune system, and beyond. 
 Choosing natural, toxic-free ingredients in your oral care routine, tongue scraping daily, flossing, including an oral probiotic in your daily routine to boost good bacteria, and choosing alcohol free mouthwash (alcohol rids your mouth of good bacteria along with the bad) are all ways we can support a healthy oral microbiome. 
 Gem’s range of delicious toothpastes and mouthwashes are free of toxic ingredients, and rich in oral probiotics, while tasting delicious and sitting pretty on your bathroom vanity.
 All Gem products are Australian made and free of parabens, triclosan, SLS and BS.

 HOW TO USE START
 Twist the bottom of the pen until liquid rises to the tip (about 15 cranks on your first go). 
 Using the brush, apply a small amount of liquid to your teeth, avoiding your tongue and gums. Leave for 10 minutes, then rinse with water
 Use once a day, preferably at night after brushing your teeth. Do not eat or drink for 30 minutes after use. HOW TO USE END

Swish, Don't Swallow: Oil Pulling for Beginners

"At the end of the day, at least you have dot dot dot..."

We’ve probably all said them, too. However - regardless of their intention or the earnestness of delivery - as a rallying call to motivate you to ‘carry on,’ feeling forced to endure suffering with a smile hurts. 

It invalidates your experience and the very real human emotions you are feeling.

These kinds of reassuring platitudes, however well intentioned, are missing a vital ingredient: Empathy.

And that’s toxic; even more so when it invalidates the experience of a marginalised or less privileged person in your community.

With so much tragedy unfolding, and the daily news cycle a constant stream of horror, it is so easy to feel guilt over seemingly trivial emotions. "I shouldn't feel unhappy when I don't have it as bad as..." is a regular thought for many of us.

It’s a brand of toxicity that lives on the periphery of almost everything we do and consume. 

From ‘live, laugh LOVE’ slogans on Kmart homewares to the words ‘No Bad Days’ splayed on the walls of an inner city yoga studio, these kinds of messages reflect a falsification of the human experience that is both grossly disingenuous and quite frankly, disillusioned.

What’s even stranger is that although messages like this send off alarm bells in our heads, we continue to buy into these ideas, these products and these branded experiences – with hard cash and emotional engagement. 

So, why are we here, existing in a flux of false reassurances? 

Global mental health statistics propose that mental health and substance use disorders affect 13% of the world’s population. 

On a macro scale, we’re facing the rapidly declining health of our planet - the evidence of which is playing out manifestly here in Australia, the world teetering on the edge of a world war, a global pandemic, and racial and gender inequality. 

On a micro-scale, we’re contending with the intimate effects of these issues in our worlds; online and off. 

Here are a few things we found helpful in deconstructing our tendencies to perform toxic positivity to better support our family and friends in their times of need – particularly those who are marginalised or experience less privilege than we do.

Learn the distinction between a reality check and toxic positivity

Like the majority of human interactions, we don’t get a rule book when it comes to this type of response and like all of them, it isn’t black and white.

The difference between performing toxic positivity and calling someone out for inappropriately lamenting over an experience can feel murky at best. 

Your values and relationship with this individual will be your guide here, but our advice remains the same. Listen more; speak less.

When you catch yourself in the moment or after the fact, it’s normal to feel defensive or distressed that you dismissed a friend’s experience or tried to sideline their feelings with a barrage of happy mantras. 

Combat this by calling yourself out and openly admitting you got it wrong. Being open to this type of self-inquiry is what builds a better cultural discourse with these types of behaviours, and ultimately leads the way towards a more accepting and mindful style of communication for all.

If you are struggling with your mental health and require support, please call the Beyond Blue 24-hour hotline on 1300 22 4636.

There is practising gratitude, and then there's Toxic Positivity. Here is why always 'looking on the bright side' can invalidate the human experience.

We asked our community to inspire us by sharing what youtime means to them.
