Why My Higher Being Chooses Natural & Sustainable Materials
At My Higher Being, every product reflects our commitment to holistic health, daily well-being, and respect for the planet. We believe that the items we wear and use daily should align with a lifestyle of mindfulness and self-care. That’s why we offer:
1. Organic Cotton Clothing & Bags
2. Plastic-Free Phone Cases
3. Stainless Steel Water Bottles
Below, we share our main reasons for these choices and how they contribute to a healthier you—and a healthier planet.
Organic Cotton vs. Synthetic Fabrics
1.1 Gentle on the Skin
•Natural Fibers: Organic cotton is free from toxic pesticides and fertilizers, ensuring fewer irritants come into contact with your skin—the body’s largest organ.
•Less Chemical Leaching: Unlike synthetic fabrics (e.g., polyester, nylon) that can release chemicals and microplastics with heat, friction (during workouts), or even just daily wear, organic cotton remains largely free of harmful substances.
1.2 Reduced Microplastic Pollution
•Minimized Fiber Shedding: Every time synthetic clothes are washed, microscopic plastic fibers (microfibers) shed and enter our waterways, eventually contaminating oceans and marine life. Organic cotton sheds significantly fewer fibers and does not contribute to plastic pollution in water.
1.3 Breathability & Comfort
•Natural Cooling: Organic cotton is breathable, making it ideal for warm days or intense workouts. You’ll experience less trapping of sweat and odors compared to many synthetic materials.
•Hypoallergenic: Many people with sensitive skin find that natural fibers like organic cotton cause fewer rashes or reactions than synthetic blends.
1.4 Better for Farmers & the Planet
•Eco-Friendly Production: Organic cotton is grown using sustainable farming methods that protect soil health, water quality, and biodiversity.
•Fair Labor Practices: Many organic cotton suppliers follow stricter guidelines for worker safety and fair wages.
Plastic-Free Phone Cases vs. Conventional Plastics
2.1 Chemical-Free Peace of Mind
•Avoiding Harmful Additives: Typical plastic phone cases contain chemicals such as BPA, PVC, or phthalates, which can leach over time—especially in warm conditions (like a phone in your pocket, under the sun, or during charging).
•Skin Contact: Phone cases frequently touch our hands and faces. Plastic-free alternatives reduce potential contact with chemical residues, supporting overall wellness.
2.2 Reduced Plastic Waste
•Sustainable Materials: Our phone cases are made from biodegradable or plant-based materials. They break down more easily at end-of-life, reducing long-term plastic pollution.
•Circular Mindset: Embracing plastic-free phone cases is one small but powerful step toward a more circular economy, where products can return safely to nature or be recycled without toxic effects.
Stainless Steel Water Bottles vs. Plastic Bottles
3.1 Protection from Microplastics
•Heat & Wear: Plastic bottles degrade over time, particularly if exposed to heat (e.g., left in a hot car or under direct sunlight). This process releases microplastics into the water we consume. Stainless steel bottles, on the other hand, do not degrade or leach microplastics.
•Taste & Purity: Stainless steel tends not to retain flavors or odors, allowing water (or other beverages) to taste fresh. Plastic, especially when reused frequently, can develop an unpleasant taste or smell.
3.2 Safe & Durable
•Chemical-Free: Stainless steel is free from BPA, phthalates, and other harmful plasticizers.
•Long-Lasting: These bottles are sturdy and built to last, reducing waste compared to single-use or short-lived plastic bottles.
3.3 Lower Environmental Impact
•Reduced Waste: Each stainless steel bottle can replace dozens or even hundreds of disposable plastic bottles per year, helping to keep plastic out of landfills and oceans.
•Recyclable Material: At the end of its life, stainless steel is highly recyclable, often with minimal loss of material quality.
Aligned with a Habit-Focused Lifestyle
Beyond offering safer, more sustainable materials, My Higher Being pairs these items with habit-focused messaging—reminders to ground, sungaze, hydrate properly, meditate, and more. Our products become daily motivators to:
1.Prioritize Wellness: Every time you wear our organic cotton shirt or carry our tote, you’re reminded to foster healthy habits like mindful eating, daily movement, and self-care.
2.Reduce Toxic Exposure: Our designs help you avoid potential chemicals in your everyday life, which can support overall mental and physical vitality.
3.Embody Eco-Conscious Values: By choosing plastic-free and natural materials, you’re contributing to less plastic pollution, healthier oceans, and a cleaner environment.

At My Higher Being, our mission goes beyond offering products; it’s about building a community of individuals dedicated to uplifting themselves and our planet through mindful daily habits. We believe:
•Holistic Health: True well-being involves consistent self-care that protects both mind and body.
•Sustainability: Choosing eco-friendly materials isn’t just a trend—it’s a responsibility and a way to encourage the same consciousness in others.
•Inspiration & Education: Through our habit collections, we strive to educate about the impact of synthetic chemicals, microplastics, and sustainable alternatives.
