Bringing Natural into the New Year

Happy New Year! I am sure you have heard the phrase "each year seems to pass faster and faster". Well-it is true. I blink and it seems that the year is almost over and the kids have grown another five inches. At times I just want to hide in a shell and pretend that time is not passing by and everything stays the same.

Well, I CAN NOT do that unfortunately, AND I know that there are some things that I definitely want to continue to change for the better of my family. I am sure that you are the same. The hardest part is being able to integrate the ability to pursue a natural lifestyle when you it seems you are ALWAYS on the go. I just recently told someone the other day - I never in a million years thought I would be even MORE busy being a homeschool mom than working a full time job teaching! But here I am.... constantly in a whirlwind - trying my best to give my best to my family.

Is your goal for this year to integrate and provide natural healing, cleansing, and immune support for

yourself and/or your family? Let me help you get there. The amazing thing that I found was that it was SOOOO SIMPLE to being. I know the idea of going natural can seem daunting....just start small. Essential oils are an AMAZING place to start and provide a true POWER HOUSE of cleansing and healing. Want to go a bit further? Add in some pretty awesome supplements to your morning routine and/or for focused immune boosting when you feel the sniffles coming on.

Let me take you on a journey this year and help you make it easy to integrate natural health and healing into your everyday busy lifestyle.

For those of you that don't know me- I am a wife and mom of three amazing kiddos (who are growing WAY too fast) and teacher. I taught in the public schools for 16 years and brought my own kiddos home almost four years ago to school at home. We have been transitioning into a natural household now for about 10 years - the last three years being more focused on health. In fact-with the exception of once, we haven't been to the local doctor's office in the three and a half years since we have been homeschooling. I know and truly believe in the power of natural medicine and wholistic healing. It works people. Think about the thousands of years and the ancient civilizations that had to fend of illness and disease WITHOUT all of the "conventional" doctors and medicines that we have today.

No, I am not a doctor, and I do not claim to be. If you have a serious illness or concern, please by all means visit your local doctor, or go to the emergency room for major concerns. I do believe doctors also have a calling and that there is a time and place for them. If my kiddo breaks their arm - you will for sure find us in the ER.

What I want to help you with is a "wholistic" approach to health and wellness. A preventative measure of sorts. Natural ways to boost your immune system, to attack any germs and free radicals that attach during the day, easy ways to clean and purify the house of those toxins naturally, natural supplements to boost your body's ability to function..... and so much more.

My goal this year is to show up every few weeks for you and to bring you something you can easily use and integrate into your home and your busy lifestyle. I hope that you find something you can use each and every week -even if it is just one thing. Living and integrating natural wellness does not have to be hard, and it can actually be a ton of fun!
