Great Women behind Great Products: Tina Kaiser, Co-Founder of LOVEHEALING
Tell us a little bit about your brand and the mission behind LOVEHEALING
FOR THE HAPPY STATE OF MIND - that's our slogan and I think that sums it up pretty well. Our products are meant to spread love, magic and positive energy. Our Aura Sprays, Crystals and Incense products are perfect for this.
These are all products that have a long tradition but unfortunately too often disappeared in the eco-corner. We have given it a stylish touch without neglecting the tradition and depth. That's why our products are so popular as gifts: because they look cool but still represent a wonderful ritual. It is also important to us that our aura sprays have only natural ingredients and that the crystals and incense products are sourced sustainably.
Your signature product is a series of beautiful Aura Sprays. How do you define the word Aura and what changes when we start using the Aura Sprays?
From a yogic point of view, the aura is the radiance of a body. Fragrances can be used specifically to influence our aura and our mood. Each LOVEHEALING spray has its own special effect and contains a high-quality combination of pure essential oils (aromatherapy) and clear quartz crystal essences. In addition, on the back of each glass bottle is an affirmation that can be repeated out loud or in silence.
How an aura spray works? It's actually quite simple: the scent molecules go from our olfactory organs directly into the limbic system, where the control centre of our emotions is located. Whether we feel fear, tension, joy or stress - essential oils are able to influence our emotions.
What many don't know: Scents leave much stronger memories than visual impressions!
How was your personal wellness journey like?
Oh, it's been a long road. I tend to strive for the superlative and am therefore always a little stressed. :) My job didn't help with that either. After studying German literature, I first worked as a model, then later as a presenter for German TV Channels like ProSieben, Sport 1 and RTL München Live. At some point I had to find a way to live a more balanced life and to find my inner peace. That's why I started with yoga 10 years ago and later learned Transcendental Meditation and various Breathing Techniques. Crystals and incense products have been part of my life since my travels to California. However, I have not yet seen an aura spray there - that's something really new. :)
How do you calm yourself when life gets busy? What are your favourite rituals?
I love the Wim Hoff breathing techniques. I also do Transcendental Meditation, always carry a Crystal with me and use the LOVEHEALING Aura Sprays depending on my mood. At the moment the PURIFICATION Spray with frankincense and sage is my favourite... And now and then it may also be a gin tonic. :)
Being a mum and entrepreneur is an exiting journey but doesn't come without its challenges. What are your golden tips for implementing self-care time into a busy schedule?
I honestly don't have an ultimate tip here. My personal integrity is really important to me. If I notice that this is being compromised, then I immediately set boundaries and speak up. I used to say yes to a lot of things I didn't feel like doing. "NO" is a wonderful word I think.
Also, I now only spend time with people with a positive energy and a place in my heart.
How does your current skincare routine look like?
I use 90% natural cosmetics (except for shampoo - I haven't really found a good natural shampoo yet). But I'm not very consistent and often change the products. It is important to me that I buy products which haven't been tested on animals.
When do you feel most beautiful?
When I am happy.
Or when I've played an hour of tennis and sweated out all the stress.
Or when I'm sitting by the sea with friends and having great conversations.
Or when I see palm trees.
Oh, actually, I like myself. :)
When creating your products you also thought of the little ones with the "LITTLE SPIRIT" crystal kit and the BYE BYE BOO aura spray. How do we introduce crystals and aura sprays to our children?
The idea for the LOVEHEALING Aura Sprays actually came to me because of my daughter Liv. As soon as it got dark, she was afraid of monsters. She didn't feel comfortable in her nursery anymore and didn't want to sleep alone in her bed. That's how I got the idea for the BYE BYE BOO spray. She personally chose the monster on the bottle. Since then, she sprays the spray on her pillow every night and puts an aventurine crystal underneath her pillow. Children love rituals! The lavender scent has a calming effect and crystals are wonderful lucky charms! By the way, Liv's crystal collection is now larger than my own. :)
What is your favourite LOVEHEALING product?
Oh, that always depends on my current mood. Currently, it is the LOVEALING Purification Spray and labradorite crystals. They change their colour depending on the sunlight and have something very magical...Besides, they are the perfect accessory for the apartment.
