How NUAGE Was Born: My Journey to Healing
Somya RawatHow NUAGE Was Born: My Journey to Healing
It all started when I landed in Canada and began my first job at The Body Shop. During my training, I was introduced to the ingredients behind every product and how they are made. To my amazement, I discovered that many of their key ingredients—like mango, neem, and coconut—were sourced from India. Seeing these humble, natural elements from my homeland transformed into luxurious creams sparked my deep curiosity.
During my workdays, I was increasingly drawn to reading product labels, catalogues, and descriptions. This newfound fascination with natural science planted a seed of passion in me, though I didn’t know it yet.
Life took a turn when I moved to a different city and developed severe health issues, which also resulted in severe breakouts. I lost a drastic amount of weight, struggled with insomnia and anxiety, and even missed my periods. My body was in chaos, and stress only made it worse.
Desperate for relief, I tried everything—endless medications, home remedies, and treatments for my acne. One treatment, in particular, caused a severe skin reaction that was the final straw.
It hit me: I didn’t need fixing; I needed healing.
I returned to India, broken but determined to heal. Slowly, I began exploring holistic lifestyles and rediscovered my love for clean, natural remedies. Through patience, self-care, and ancient wisdom, I began to heal—not just my skin but my entire being. I realized that the key to wellness is harmonizing the mind, body, and soul.
As I healed, so did my passion for natural living. I immersed myself in studying nature’s remedies and understanding how our ancestors lived harmoniously with the earth. I saw the profound healing power hidden in India’s rich biodiversity—our forests, herbs, and ancient practices.
NUAGE was born from this journey. It’s more than a brand; it’s a movement to spread awareness about healing through simplicity and nature. I’ve lived through severe acne, missed periods, and anxiety, and I cured myself through practices rooted in slow living, clean personal care, balanced nutrition, and inner work.
At NUAGE, we bring you the essence of India’s ancient remedies—unfiltered, pure, and effective. We aim to remind people that embracing the natural world is the cure for so many of our modern struggles.
NUAGE is my pledge to share what I’ve learned. It’s about reconnecting with nature, healing from within, and realizing that we are part of something much bigger.
