In Hosane, I ask for the… HO!
We are often asked questions about the pretty name of our brand Hosane… We promise, we will write you a post on the subject. But you should already know that we chose this name because it makes sense: it carries the values that we defend and it is therefore no coincidence that it begins with… Ho.
This syllable which begins our name – and thus stands as a founding base – infuses the spirit of the brand. Ho in Hosane means Holistic .
But what does this word really mean? Why did we associate him with our project? It is indeed a term that is rarely used… and which requires some explanation!
Without giving you a lesson in etymology – no, no, don’t run away! – Holistic comes from the Greek word Holos which means “Totality, whole”.
Holism is a movement born at the beginning of the 20th century. Its founding principle is to consider a phenomenon taking into account the system that surrounds it.
Holistic medicine, for example, considers the individual as a whole: to treat them, it is as interested in their body as in their mind or emotions. It does not treat the symptom only, but seeks to understand the root causes of the disorder.
This approach is in perfect agreement with the spirit of our Hosane brand, and with the qualities of the products we create!
Your body, your mind, your living space as a WHOLE
All our components (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, environmental, sociocultural) – everything that constitutes us, therefore – interact constantly: we therefore obviously need to be interested in the whole to treat a part.
An imbalance in the system and the whole thing collapses! You have certainly experienced it: a big bout of stress in your professional life for example and… your eczema returns!
Treating only the symptom would be in vain: if you do not tackle the roots of the problem – in this case stress – eczema will reappear!
Your health as a coherent whole
Everything is therefore linked: nutrition, sleep, stress, pollution… To preserve your immunity, you know how good it is to have a balanced lifestyle, a healthy diet and how important it is to take care of your environment.
And it is very often this last point that is forgotten in health and well-being routines! However, a recent study has clearly established a link between fungi and bacteria in the digestive system and the quantity of chemicals present in the homes of the people tested! Too many toxic household products in the house, and your intestinal flora is turned upside down!
So, your living space must become a healthy and caring space: at Hosane, this is the mission that we have set for ourselves!
By drastically reducing the use of chemical substances, you take care of your health: less risk of illness, hormonal disruptions, toxicity. And it’s a virtuous circle: this positive environment will influence your emotions and free your mind! A healthy interior, free from harmful products, does not pollute your body and creates a healthy environment around you. This cocoon comforts you and sends you positive waves.
BE AN ACTOR, YOU HAVE YOUR BEST ROLE TO PLAY: REINVENT YOUR LIFESTYLES!
Another characteristic of the holistic approach is action . You have to take control of your health to preserve it! You must not suffer from external aggressions, but on the contrary be a proactive actor in your well-being and your balance. By being aware of your actions and feeling responsible, you will be the actor in changing your lifestyle. You get involved and you choose the changes you want to make.
Have you started eating healthier? Doing physical exercise or meditation to better manage your stress? To reconnect with nature? Follow through on your project and also adopt well-being and health routines for your living space: house maintenance is one of them.
Knowing that you are taking action, that you are doing good to yourself and that you are doing good to your loved ones reinforces your joy, your serenity and considerably lightens your mental load. You no longer have to worry about the consequences on health: your choices are consistent.
At Hosane, through the products we offer you, we support you in discovering this holistic approach: by adding your home to your little daily touches, you really take care of “the whole”!
