It's going to be 36 degrees C today. But this garden :
💚 is at least 10 degrees cooler
💚 provides a play space or relaxing oasis
💚 provides fresh water for birds
💚 provides habitat (native trees & shrubs) for wildlife and my doggie.
💚 helps create a microclimate to minimise the impacts of climate change like severe weather
LOVE YOUR GARDEN or make one!
It's easy and you will have an oasis at your door.
Don't worry if you don't have much space , potted plant gardens are incredible, too.

It is day 3 of the heat wave in Melbourne. It's nice to know our habitat garden is working well to provide fresh water, food and shelter during challenging weather. This little native noisy mynah bird (shown here) and other native birds have been hanging out at our bird bath pretty much all day today. The mynahs usually chase off other birds, but it's nice to see sharing when the heat is this bad.
As a reminder please leave fresh water and shelter out for animals ( native and your pets) in hot weather. And when designing gardens think about planting native trees for food sources, shelter, shade which we humans also benefit from.

I received this card for mothers day in 2019 just after giving birth to my second daughter. At the time I had a shih tsu Ruby who was very sick and we were so worried that she was not going to live much longer. It only occurred to me today that the dog in the card looks very much like our current doggie which we got much later in 2022. Maybe there was something more to this card than a dog with bed hair, not to mention eating breakfast in bed from a tray. ❤️🐶❤️

In the days leading up to Christmas and the holidays, I hope everyone remembers to take time to look after yourself and to also look after each other. Spread the word of peace, love and inclusion. ❤️🕊❤️

Taking some time out . This place is so impressive and very reasonably priced. In addition to many hot and cold therapy pools, there are loads of other things to do, plus a huge food garden.

It has been a long time coming, but I can finally say i can now sail a boat competently. Over a decade in the making, and there have been a few hiccups along the way. Never give up on the goals you make. Finally, the time will be right for it to happen. I have my next sailing goal set, I can't wait. ⛵️⛵️⛵️

Not every morning in the same at my local beach. I'm not sure what happened to this poor swan. Looks like it was washed up with the recent storms and may have provided dinner for some animal. A glimpse into the cycle of nature.

A perfect evening watching the sunset with my little princess. 💕

Mugette has combined her profession as an environmental scientist with her love of nature. Mugette’s Natural Formulae (MNF) showcases her ideas on how to live in harmony with nature, focussing on: healthy eating and eating more organic and seasonal fruit and veg; using all natural skin care which provides beauty, wellbeing and environmental benefits; doing yoga, which is so important for maintaing a healthy mind and body; and raising awareness about environmental issues.
Mugette has developed her own beauty and wellbeing products which are now available for sale. The MNF products:
- Contain specifically selected plant extracts to improve skin health and function
- Contain no nasty chemicals or fillers which are often used to bulk up regular cosmetics
- Use glass jars to ensure product quality
- Use plastic free packaging to avoid leachate from hormone affecting chemicals such as Bisphenol A (BPA) which interacts with the endocrine system and has been associated with womens hormonal health problems and specific conditions including obesity, endometrial hyperplasia, recurrent miscarriages, and polycystic ovarian syndrome
- USE no environmentally or ethically damaging products like unregulated palm oil which is commonly used in the cosmetics industries and which perpetuates the destruction of ecosystems.
Features
Active Ingredients: MNF products contain essential & vegetable oils which are rich in vitamins, fatty acids & proteins beneficial to the skin; these have been used for centuries to assist in skin rejuvenation.
Made Fresh & Small Batches: this is to ensure that the full potency of the ingredients are available when used on your skin, for instance Vitamin C quickly degrades when in storage.
The MNF range only uses natural preservatives and contains no toxic or harmful chemicals.
As the MNF range is made from fresh flower preparations and essential oils they have wonderful mood enhancing properties. Mugette recommends using MNF products in combination with a dailey yoga practice to gain the full beauty and wellbeing benefits.
