THE FOUNDER

Aurélie Bachelet

“I created Gingerly after 15 years in the textile industry, where I notably served as Collections Manager. This role allowed me to travel internationally very regularly, especially to Asia, including India, a country I'm passionate about.”

OUR HISTORY

Of the transformation...

This feeling of constant imbalance, linked to stress and a hectic life, I knew for a long time. It was my daily life and I even thought it was the price to pay for wanting to juggle everything. And then one day, I understood that this feeling came mainly… from me.

I had this revelation when I discovered yoga during one of my business trips to India in 2015. Thanks to this practice, I immediately felt the beneficial effects on me. And it was in wanting to understand "Why" that I discovered Ayurveda: the Indian medicine from which Yoga originated.

I wanted to experience this practice again by returning to India for an Ayurvedic treatment. It was a second revelation! I didn't really know what to expect but I discovered a way of life entirely focused on well-being. Both a heritage of ancient knowledge (Ayurveda has 5,000 years of history) but also resolutely anchored in the present.

Upon transmission...

Implementing Ayurvedic advice into my daily life changed the way I live. Less stressed, more aligned, my life seemed lighter to bear. In a word: more balanced. But it was when I realized that the changes I had experienced also resonated with many other people that I decided to share these benefits with those around me.

From "Practitioner," I wanted to become an "Expert." So, wanting to learn how to transmit this knowledge, I began a dual training program: Yoga for 4 years at the IFY (Institut Français de Yoga) in Paris and Ayurveda for 3 years at the International School of Ayurveda in Brussels as an "Ayurvedic Nutrition Counselor."

... to ritual infusions

"I love your advice, but I don't have time to implement it." It was by often hearing this argument during my corporate sessions that I had the idea of creating a ritual that would allow for at least 10 minutes a day to take care of oneself. As a big fan of infusions, I used to create my own recipes for personal consumption.

Thus, in 2020, I decided to offer the Gingerly infusion range with the "10 minutes for me" Ritual. While the plants steep, you benefit from a guided meditation, a seated yoga pose, or a mantra. Then, you can consciously drink your infusion. More than just products, this approach aims to anchor a moment in the day while spreading it to as many people as possible. Because everyone has the right to feel balanced.
