Dr Bronner's Magic "All-One"

If organic, natural, green, affordable clean is what you have been looking for, you might want to take a look at this.

   
A man passionate about cleanliness, the genius of Dr Emanuel Bronner has certainly not gone unrecognized. His famous, iconic soap with the all-one, faith and cultural uniting message printed on each and every label has brought hygiene of body, mind and spirit to many since the birth of Dr Bronner's Magic Soaps back in 1948. This is a company unlike any other - unique in every way, pioneers in more ways than I care to count. Where do I begin? I could write a book on Dr Bronner's, each chapter more captivating than the last. I find myself flooded with thoughts, yet at the same time speechless. This family-owned and operated company, Dr Bronner himself and the products are truly amazing, a trump card above the rest. As I write this, a hot bath beckons, an experience that many would say cannot get any more interesting than the last, unless of course you have a bottle of Dr Bronner's Peppermint and if you are really lucky, someone to share the experience with. Once I tried this magical soap, I never turned back.

*What is so magical about Dr Bronners?*

The magic in the soap is in its versatility, purity, lather, scent, organic nature, sustainability, environmental-friendliness, effectiveness, biodegradability and labeling. It also has a lot of good karma, that continues to grow over time. When I was first introduced to Dr Bronner's I was in the middle of planning a really big camping trip. An image of the husband, baby, cat, dishes, laundry and Winnebago, along with myself all lathered up together amongst the trees and my remote pepper garden that travels with us, filled me with the breath of laughter and delight. This soap is so versatile you can clean up everything at the same time without hurting the trees and land, while using it as an insecticide for the plants. How fabulous ...

Bronner's Magic soap is the highest quality castile soap that you can get anywhere and is the #1 selling natural brand of soap in North America. What exactly is castile soap you ask? Castile soap is a soap made with the fat of a pure vegetable origin, usually olive oil, rather than animal fats such as tallow. It is highly prized for being gentle and versatile. Castile Soap originated in the Kingdom of Castilla, a part of the country that we know today as Spain. The name Castilla (or in English, Castile) means land or region of castles. Truly fitting is the name of this soap because Dr Bronner, and his family have indeed built an empire.

*The Bronner legacy*

/Only hard work can save us, but if we teach only our clan? We're all hated then! ... " /- Dr Bronner

The Bronner story all began in Heilbronn, Germany with a family of Jewish candle and castile soap makers. Born in 1908 into the soap making business, Emanuel Bronner learned the secrets of the trade early in his life. After much dispute with his father and uncles over soap and politics he moved to America in 1929, during Hitler's reign, urging his unwilling parents to do the same. Although young Emanuel feared the growing power of the Natzis, his father did not share these feelings, remaining stationed in his beliefs that they were German and there was nothing to be afraid of. Emanuel married a Catholic beauty named Paula and they had three children. In 1944 sickness caused Paula to be hospitalized and she sadly passed into the next lifetime, leaving Emanuel to raise their three children alone. Sometime in the 1940's Dr Bronner's parents, Berthold and Franciscka were killed, murdered in death camps. The Heilbronn soap company was nationalized and stolen by Hitler, although the secrets and formulas remained alive within the mind and heart of Emanuel. A tragic story, but one with a happy ending. Perhaps the death of his wife and parents was not in vain, for the loss of his loved ones was certainly a driving force in the passionate Emanuel's heart. A heart that would make his father proud beyond words ...

An example of a true hero, Dr Bronner was an alchemist. He has created gold, not of coin, although he did that too, but of heart. His words have touched the hearts of many and his soaps are the best available, clean in design and formula without chemical corruption and without even a trace of the energy of greed. His global influence continues, although Bronner himself passed on March 7, 1997, with the labels that still remain untouched and a family who "get's it." Dr Bronner's desire was to unite humanity across ethnic and faith divides, a peace plan to bring us all into harmony despite our differences, in recognition that at the core of all faith and all people exists commonality. This mission continues on with the success of Dr Bronner's Magic Soaps.

The inheritance of this empire by Emanuel's family is not gone without appreciation. Although spaceship earth has yet to be completely united, his message lives-on, as it continues to be printed on the labels of his soaps thanks to the family, whose respect for Dr Bronner's life work is quite apparent. His legacy carried on by his lineage, continues activism and the spread of Constructive Capitalism. This family of soap makers is
a winning team, an example of what cleanliness is all about.

*60th Anniversary*

In 2008 Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps celebrated its 60th anniversary and 150th year of making soap in the family. To mark this event, a new line of USDA organic products were introduced - a few of which I have tried out myself, including the peppermint lotion and the lavender - coconut lotions ... easily described as truly amazing.

The Bronner family also marked this special occasion by becoming Certified Fair Trade, as well as USDA certified organic. Aside from the pure castile soaps, both hard and liquid, Dr Bronner's has lotions, hand and body soaps, hair conditioning rinse and cream, organic lip balm, organic body balm, organic shaving gels, organic hand sanitizer, baby and sensitive skin care, sal suds cleanser, organic virgin coconut oil and alpsnack snacks.
