Our Unique Quality
Dr. Hauschka Skin Care provides pure, therapeutic, luxurious preparations that focus on the interrelationship between the vitality of the plant and human skin. The processing involved in creating these products is especially unique because of the way in which each ingredient is extracted from nature.
The cultivation of healing plants begins with healthy soil. Plants are harvested at sunrise, wet with dew, when the medicinal aspect is most vital. The conscious attention and gentleness of the worker are taken into consideration along each step of the way.
The challenge is to preserve the living, healing element, the life force of the plant, in the finished product. The solution was found in Dr. Rudolf Steiner's principle, "Rhythm is the carrier of life". After many years and thousands of experiments, a successful process was discovered employing several rhythms: sunrise and sunset, warmth and cold, stillness and movement. These rhythms produced in the laboratory reflect processes that the plant undergoes in its natural state, and serve to enhance and preserve the life forces. These are the healing forces that restore harmony.
Most of the laboratory work is done by hand without chemical or technical interference, which might weaken the vitality of the plant. The thoughts and attitudes of each worker also influence the processing of the ingredients. Throughout the entire process, a pharmaceutical standard is employed enabling Dr. Hauschka Skin Care to rely exclusively on natural preservatives. Products are pure, safe and effective.
Our Philosophy
Developed by Dr. Rudolf Steiner in the early 20th century, Anthroposophy is a spiritual scientific path of knowledge and self-transformation. He described this path as an "awareness of one's humanity." Humanity (anthropos) has the inherent wisdom (sophia) to transform both itself and the world. This philosophy embraces a spiritual view of the human being and its relationship to the universe, with an emphasis on knowing, not faith.
Born in Austria, Dr. Rudolf Steiner was a scientist, educator and philosopher. His work in Anthroposophy has had a significant impact on agriculture, education, therapeutic and medical sciences, social structure and the arts. |
