This is part of uOpen’s ‘Meet The Maker’ interview series - your exclusive opportunity to get to know the real people and personalities behind the subscription boxes you know and love, and the ones you will soon come to!
This week we're pleased to welcome Aura Kits founder, Charlene Godfrey to tell us more about her Aura Kits subscription box business and how it all got started.

Aura Healing Kits | Meet The Maker

Aura Kits is a monthly wellbeing subscription box promoting mindfulness and self-care through a range of conscious, energy cleansing items.

Aura Healing Kits includes a monthly selection of products aimed to help you pause, reflect and heal.
What sparked your decision to start up your box and how did you get started?
The idea for Aura kits was born during a meditation I did after recovering from
burnout and pneumonia.
I realised I had it all wrong and couldn't continue down the path I'd been travelling for so long! I was working too hard, being a mother to young children and taking care of everyone but myself.
After learning to practice self-care, meditation and that a holistic self-love approach was having such a positive effect on my life I started to source quality products, such as the ones I was using personally and put together Aura Kits!
