| Natural Clothing Natural clothing is much preferable to synthetic fabrics. Natural clothing allows our skin to breathe, not strangle it. Natural fibers interact with people, things like cotton, wool, and silk. For our children it is important to wear natural clothing. In the summer it will keep them cooler and in the winter it will keep them warmer. It is vital to a baby's health to be kept warm and natural fibers will help you do this. Infants cannot maintain their own heat and is dependant on his caregivers to provide clothing and blankets to keep warm. Synthetic fabrics are not absorbant, nor do they keep you warm or cool as well as natural. Silk is the finest natural fiber. It interacts wonderfully with the human condition and comes from the silk worm's body. After silk there are fibres like sheep wool, camel hair, rabbit hair, and the like. These substances come from the animal, however in most cases animals are not hurt in the process and thus it benefits us at no cost to them. Next is the higher vegetable types of fibre. Some examples of these fibres are linen, cotton, hemp, and nettles. Natural fibres come from nature while synthetic fibres are man-made. Man-made fibres have different auras than things in nature and often these can clash with people's auras making them nervous and jumpy. Natural fibres do not have these problems and can calm people. However, in most cases true natural fibres are more expensive than man-made products. Among other problems of sufficating the skin synthetic fabrics have many drawbacks. Many of them are highly combustable and hazardous to skin. In the case of syntethetic children's sleepwear it has been treated with Tris to be flame resistant. Tris can be absorbed through the skin and cause problems. It has recently been proven Tris can have carcinogenic and mutagenic effects. Also, Tris cannot be removed with repeated washings or other measures. There are many reasons for loose fitting natural clothing. |
