Meet Plum

Hi, welcome to my blog called Being Plum. My name is Tanya and I'm a blogger from Johannesburg, South Africa. I'm currently living in Paris and during the day I am a Marketing Manager and on weekends I enjoy exploring the city, taking photos and trying out the amazing French cuisine with friends. Being Plum is a treasury of my preoccupations in life. I hope you'll enjoy the posts as much as I enjoy putting them together. Happy reading xxx

I went to @dischem_pharmacies to get my fave @niveasouthafrica shower gel which was on special ... and, I came home with all of this 🙀 I am especially excited to try some new makeup goodies I have been eyeing and are finally in store 👌🏻#itsneverjustonethingatdischem #nivea #catrice #avene #maybelline #libresse

Morning routine ✨ Making sure I get my multivita

Morning routine ✨ Making sure I get my multivitamins in that also contain antioxidants and greens, as well as rescue remedy drops when I’m under a lot of stress with major deadlines.

These @amipro_metagenics_south_africa multivitamins with antioxidants and green food formula are an easy way to fill in nutritional gaps and protect your body against free radical damage. The vitamins support healthy vision, glutathione production, immunity, blood sugar, prostrate and cardiovascular management.

Some days my anxiety is really low and others it gets really high. When it’s high, I make sure start my morning by putting a few drops on my tongue of the Bach Rescue Remedy. You can take these drops as often as required.

Both these products are available on the @faithfultonature site 🌿 #paid #wellness #betterchoices

Over the last year, I’ve become a lot more aware

Over the last year, I’ve become a lot more aware and focussed on my health and wellness - both physically and mentally. Living through a pandemic and lockdown has been unreal and has had pros and cons for me. The cons were that I started eating really badly and my anxiety levels were at an all-time high which meant I wasn’t sleeping properly and on edge all the time. The pros were that I made a conscious effort to start looking after myself better. I started exercising daily, choosing to rather spend time reading instead of watching series, being more aware of what I ate and how my body reacted to certain foods, and consciously making time for myself to journal and work on myself.

When @faithfultonature approached me about partnering with them, it was serendipitous ✨ Especially since my focus this year is working on managing my stress levels and anxiety. They sent me the most awesome package of goodies to test as well as empower and uplift me. All of the products are natural and kind to Mother Earth, as well as carefully chosen to meet my needs.

I will keep you updated on how things go with these products. I am already positive about the results as @faithfultonature source products that are earth, animal and people friendly and all of the products they choose are reviewed based on three core values namely: health, environment and social.

I had a very successful morning with my sibling. We arrived at @sandtoncitymall before the shops opened, so it was nice and quiet. We were second in the queue for the @istoreza, and I have now ordered a new phone for myself 🙌🏻 As we were leaving, we passed the @breadbasket.sandton and we couldn’t help but smell the freshly baked goods. So, we popped in and had a cappuccino and croissant each for R39! I highly recommend this combo. The croissant was delicious and so fresh and the cappuccino was perfect 👌🏻 #croissant #cappuccino #breadbasket
