On a Healthy Path by Detoxing First

 What if you could start fresh?

On my journey for a healthier me, I have been looking around for a more "appealing" way to detox my body. Someone from my Essential Oil group put this link on social media and I had to check it out. I looked at all the ingredients and like what I see. The ingredients are always important to me, because I believe the whole process will work better if you actually like whatever it is you are attempting, especially when it's an attempt to become healthier.

 The ingredients may be a little challenging because, one; they may not be in season and two; they may be a bit pricy depending on the season. That should not really matter a whole lot if your goals need to be reached. In other words, it should be worth it to you!

So here is the link to a 48 hour cleansing.

I would love to hear if you try it and how it made you feel.

Homemade Household Products

I have been on a mission for the better part of my life to remain as "natural" as possible. In this past year, I have become almost obsessed with finding ways to rid our household of toxins.

In looking back through the rapidly passing years, I'm appalled by how easily society has become so gullible to marketed poisonous products. Anytime the advertisements get "new and improved", bigger, brighter, faster or taller, etc... people jump right off the cliff and into the pit of suckers.

I am so thankful for my Mother who raised ten children on a very meek budget, and taught us how to keep our lives unadulterated by advertisements. Shielding us wasn't necessarily on purpose, it was out of practicality. A lot of things within our household were home made and simply not wasted. Mother certainly was a pro at stretching a dollar and I fortunately have retained those lessons.

I will try to link up to blogs with similar useful household ingredients and such along the way and will include some of my own as time permits. Until next time, here is a link to the newest that I found!

This is a link to Jilly's Blog that I found very appealing.

Quick Little Moisturizer

A quick little moisturizer that I like to use is:

1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 tsp. Vitamin E
2 drops of essential oil (I like Lavender or Tea Tree Oil)

I am mixing small amounts because I like the ingredients to be fresh and I don't want what goes in my body or on my body to be stale. I can't be certain of the shelf life of this moisturizer, because I don't let it sit for long before it gets used. I just know that it makes my skin soft and pliable and for me, that works!
