Self-care and spiritual practices changed Rita's life, increased her ability to love herself.
Rita Farruggia, CEO of Happybeingwell.com – Making Self-Care Easy, Fun & Good for You
Why did you start Happybeingwell.com?
After a long career working in Marketing, I was ready to bring Happybeingwell.com into the lives of women who valued nurturing themselves and personal growth. Happy Being Well is a one stop online self-care shop that is capturing the hearts of many women with high-quality, affordable organic self-care products designed to move you from challenges to success. I have been on a self-care journey for a very long time. Life is at times challenging, in fact, challenges is how we grow, get smarter and get wiser. It is how we deal with life’s challenges that matters most in life. Self-awareness is the first key ingredient when responding to life’s challenges in a healthy way where you can see how to use it as leverage for bringing in more happiness into your life. I have personally experienced the consequences of living life with high stress as normal by being all consumed with work and the demands of life. Neglecting time for self-care. The consequence of neglecting time for self-care is burn out. During my personal development journey, I discovered the importance of really getting to know myself and connect with myself so I can make the best decisions for my life that is aligned with my beliefs and values. I cultivated getting to know myself through my self-care activities of taking long hot baths to meditate and journal while my nervous system is deeply relaxed to communicate with my sub-conscious mind. I cultivated good habits and taking massive positive action through doing affirmations while giving myself facials using organic facial masks that I now have on Happybeingwell.com. To replace soothing stress with food, I meditate and do yoga. It was a challenge to find leggings that I both loved the creative designs and fully supported me in the past because sometimes the waist band would get loose. When I wear leggings that I love, it motivates me to do a yoga class, meditate, go to the gym, take a walk or join a hiking group. This wellness lifestyle restored me, gave me more energy to experience more out of life. It was then that I created being happy being well and wanted to spread that joy so more women can be happy being well. By committing to a wellness lifestyle using organic products that they love using such as, all natural facial masks, natural bath soaps, natural bath bombs, natural essential oils, natural candles, natural deodorants, aromatherapy diffusers, crystals, herbal teas and much more amazing organic products to use everyday to feel happy being well including wearing leggings you love to move in, you feel good about yourselves because you are showing yourself love by giving yourself the gift of vitality. We all need high levels of energy to be able to fully show up in our careers and our personal lives so we can have meaningful connections with ourselves and others and perform at our best. Happybeingwell.com is successful because we want what's best for women, that's why we provide a large selection of the best in high-quality organic self-care products. It is important to live a wellness lifestyle using high-quality organic wellness products.
What is Your Background of Experience?
I entered corporate America after graduating from university, first working as a full-time private college business instructor. This experience motivated me to go even deeper with personal development/wellness because I am always motivated to discover solutions to get the best results in whatever I do. In this case as a college instructor that was increasing the academic performance of my students so I went to the public library and discovered Tony Robbins. I would sprinkle into my lessons how putting in the most amount of effort into their studies not only translates into good grades, also molds their characters to be better thinkers and forms good habits that translates into success in all areas of their life after they leave the classroom. I would also do muscle testing (applied kinesiology) demonstrations showing how our beliefs and integrity (being aligned with truth) affects the strength of our muscles for example, when you say, “I can’t do it” your dominant arm that you use to write with becomes much weaker. Your dominant arm also becomes much weaker after you tell a lie as well. This exercise would really captivate my students when they experienced this themselves on their own bodies. Prior to being a college instructor, I was always reading personal development books in high school and in university along with taking yoga and mediation classes. Rita’s curiosity and study of personal development/wellness became deeper with each passing year along her career journey. When Rita transitioned her career into marketing to become a more effective marketer and communicator, she studied neurolinguistic programming and hypnosis. After realizing how powerful the subconscious mind is in relation to how we behave this paved the path to attending more meditation, personal development/wellness and yoga classes. This increased my awareness on how we treat ourselves affects our self-esteem which influences the decisions we make in life and how we respond to situations. For example, if we chose not to commit to self-care activities, this is telling ourselves that we are not worth having the rewards of self-care. If we stay in toxic relationships, we are telling ourselves we are not worthy and not worthy of having healthy relationships.
Why Do People Use Products from Happybeingwell.com for Their Self-Care Routines?
Every single person on this planet earth experiences stress and everyone wants to look good and feel happy. Allowing stress to constantly build up in our bodies and minds can lead to health problems. We all need to physically move (walks, hikes, yoga, gym) our bodies as a way to release stress and make our minds stronger, especially women. Women on average have higher levels of stress than men according to a 2016 study published in The Journal of Brain & Behavior. Happybeingwell.com provides activewear leggings and bras designed to inspire women into action because they feel and look their best when wearing leggings that not only looks highly fashionable also feels highly comfortable and highly supportive.
Taking care of our bodies by applying all-natural skincare is extremely important to reduce the amount of toxins we are putting into our body. Every woman deserves to have glowing and youthful skin without risking their health and their pocket book. Happybeingwell.com provides all natural facial masks that are highly effective to get a clear, glowing and youthful skin complexion. Also, it is important to use natural bath soap bars when taking a shower or bath, which people can also get at Happy Being Well. It is important to use all natural ingredients in our bath products when we are taking a long hot bath to destress and detoxify our bodies such as natural bath bombs, natural bath salts, and natural essential oils to add to our bath to increase our muscle relaxation. A perfect all-natural way to take a detoxifying bath is to add natural Bentonite Clay to our bath. When Bentonite comes in contact with a toxin, chemical, or heavy metal, the clay draws out and absorbs the toxins, releasing minerals to the body to use. In addition, most regular deodorants contain aluminum – it is important to use an all-natural deodorant that Happy Being Well also provides a selection of natural deodorants to choose from.
Reducing our use of harmful chemicals on our bodies and in our homes is vital to our health, how we feel and how much energy we have to live our best lives. Before creating Happy Being Well, I was always looking for all-natural and non-toxic skincare products and found many claims as “natural” or “organic” but did not provide much value when you read the labels. I was looking for truly all-natural products that worked to give me that perfect clear, youthful glowing skin complexion I wanted and did not cause my skin to break out. I would spend hours researching skincare products online and then researched each ingredient used. I was often met with disappointment when realizing there was at least one chemical in it, often more and yet these products were one hundred dollars or more for each jar. You can imagine my excitement when I finally found all natural skincare products and at affordable prices, which can be found on Happy Being Well’s online store in our facial masks section.
Happybeingwell.com is saving women from toxic overload in their bodies. The average woman applies approximately 515 synthetic chemicals to her body before she leaves her house each day. A significant amount of these chemicals is then absorbed into the bloodstream, which can have a cumulative negative effect leading to cancer, cognitive decline, fatigue, insomnia and many other diseases. Our goal is to have all women be happy being well. Happy Being Well is an inclusive, all-natural holistic lifestyle wellness brand — to help you recharge and renew your Mind, Body and Home so you can be happy being well.
Our mind requires nurturing just as much as our body. A healthy mind will support a healthy body. During the pandemic, we have spent more time at home — our homes should be our sanctuary, where we love, celebrate, and rest. I have curated collections of natural products that I use and absolutely love. Happy Being Well carries products such as all-natural herbal teas to support rest and wellness, tea infusers, bath bombs, a collection of aromatherapy diffusers, clean beauty facial masks, aluminum-free deodorants, natural essential oils, natural toothpaste, crystals, natural home products, — and home crystal culinary pieces & natural candles, gorgeous luxury robes, meditation tools, crystal candle holders, preserved roses and much. Our product inventory and marketplace will continue to grow.
What is Happy Being Well About?
Our mission is to inspire wellness and all women to live happy being well.
Happybeingwell.com is the happy way of life.
Happy Being Well is a purpose-led brand and all about living happy being well. I learned through both life experiences and education how to live happy being well and want to spread this way of life to every woman to experience life by living happy being well. When you live happy being well, you no longer tolerate any toxicity in your life. Including tolerating toxic thoughts or toxic people. Many women and people overall have that toxic voice limiting their growth and overall well-being. This has a domino effect in society where people are spreading toxic thoughts/energy everywhere (workplaces, schools, homes). I want all women to live happy being well — in mind, body, and in their home. We want to help women be well, and stay well by using natural products that help women live happy being well.
