Get a FREE Citrus Oil & Reference Guide When You Join Young Living (before 12/1)!
Young Living essential oils are amazing. Have you tried them yet? I was super skeptical at first and now I’m a believer. I think they are a MUST for every home. And, if you know me, you know I’m not normally that forthcoming with my opinion. We use these oils instead of over-the-counter meds, all the time. For allergies, colds, fevers, burns, and all sorts of other things. You can read some testimonies here. I’ll share one quickie: my neighbor had been trying to kick a sinus infection for almost 3 weeks. He thought the oils were rather hooky, but since he’d tried EVERYTHING else, why not try the oils?…

Are Your Adrenals Dragging?
Join us for a live stream, beginning tonight, Wed 10/9, at 8pm! Live Stream: Are Your Adrenals Dragging? I don’t know how many times I have asked my doctor, talked to a friend, read a book, or searched the internet for ways to help my adrenals. Our adrenals are small but busy glands producing hormones that regulate our body systems. Their most important role is helping us deal with stress. Dr. LeAnne Deardeuff says that, “The adrenal glands of a person who lives a stress-filled life are constantly secreting cortisol in an effort to deal with the stress.” This can wreak havoc on both our hormones and immune system. Adrenal…

Why Cleanse?
“True health is self-made”. Have you heard that before? Can we personally affect our health, or is a pill our only option for allergies or infertility? I’m going to challenge the status quo, and ask, “What if it’s not our only option after all?” Don’t get me wrong, doctors are an asset and the medical field is much needed. If you are in a car wreck, you need a hospital. If your little one breaks a bone, you need a doctor. And there are certainly medications out there that are absolutely necessary. Doctors are a blessing. And so are alternative options, whenever possible. What does Dr. Leanne Dearduff, author…

Top Ten Things I Do Differently With Baby #3
As moms, we live and learn. Here are a few things I’ve noticed that I do differently with #3: 1. Instead of diaper rash cream, I have a jar of coconut oil at the ready next to the changing table. 2. When M got his first cold, I took him to the chiro. Just a few hours after his adjustment, all his symptoms were gone! 3. He sleeps on his tummy and I don’t worry about him. 4. I don’t “shush” my other kids when M is asleep on the floor of the living room. He sleeps right through the bedlam. 5. If I want to bolster his immune system,…

My Water Birth Experience
It’s not easy deciding on a photo for a post about water birth. Most photos show… more than I’m comfortable with. So, enjoy this picture of my new precious little man! 🙂 Look at those awesome lips. And enjoy the story about my water birth experience! 🙂 I have a history of quick deliveries. I was in active labor with my daughter for only a few hours before she arrived. No time for pain medication of any sort! I remember asking the nurse for Tylenol (or something!), and she just laughed at me. I delivered her completely unmedicated, but also completely unprepared for delivering ‘naturally’. It was not a pleasant…

Review & Giveaway!!! Sambazon Organic Supergreens & Acai
I recently had the opportunity to sample a few bottles of Sambazon, and we are fans! While the price tag ($2.99/bottle at Whole Foods) doesn’t make them appealing for everyday drinking, they’re a perfect grab-and-go for a healthy drink from the grocery store or for a burst of energy during a juice fast. The Acai and Supergreens were definitely our favorites, out of the 3 we tried. I’m not a huge fan of drinking greens (shh, don’t tell), but the Sambazon greens were tasty! It contains some of the most high-powered greens like kale, spirulina, and chlorella. While the Sambazon organic Protein drink tasted fine, it contains a…
