Big Natural Wonders

Here are several natural products I've tried and loved.  Be both healthy and beautiful with these simple smart buys.  They are now considered staples at my house because I cannot live without them.  Had to share this knowledge with you.
Dr. Bonner's Magic Soap:  This soap has been around for 60 years and talk about double duty!  This single product has the ability to serve you in countless areas.  Carry this with you when you travel- use it for cleaning and moisturizing the body, washing hair, brushing teeth, opening pores, and clearing acne prone skin.  Those are just a few reasons I can think of to convince you this is a must-have item!  Something else to keep in mind; it's natural and works great for sensitive skin.  This will be one of those items I always have stocked in my home!

Pure Africa Shea Butter:  This is yet another multipurpose product, 100% organic, and feels so good to the touch.  Why wouldn't you want to rub it everywhere?  And you can!   This product can be used for the following;  stretch mark prevention, acne reliever, soften skin, even skin tone, restore elastisity to skin, add sheen to hair, and so much more.  Again, this is another natural product and can be used daily.  I use it daily on my  body and face, and typically use for my children's hair and scalp.

Tea worth talking about: 
Stash Premium is my favorite go to brand for tea.  Stash produces a wide range of teas made with 100% natural ingredients.  The taste is subtle and has just  enough sweetness.  My favorite flavor right now is Mangosteen.  View the many benefits of mangosteen below, but check with your doctor before consuming it in large or daily doses, as it can also work against your body if you suffer from certain ailments.

Yogi Organic Tea is a new brand I recently tried.  They offer a  full collection of  natural herbal teas that
can make the body feel good, prevent an illness, and also heal.  Consider healing everything from cramps, migraines, and the kidney, to treating a heart condition,  naturally.   They even offer a line of teas dedicated strictly to women.  I'm currently drinking 'Stomach Ease,' which supports healthy digestion.  Too early to say how well it works.

Kelp Powder - Mineral Hair Treatment

View my sea kelp natural hair treatment I tried over the weekend.  It is a simple process that offers great results- shine and additional minerals that are great for the hair.  My concoction included kelp powder, aloe vera juice, and oils.  I decided to use coconut and red palm oil in my mixture, but feel free to use whatever oils work well with your hair- almond, apricot, etc.  Leave the mixture on for 2 to 4 hours.  It's easy to wash out, and the smell is minimal.  The first pic of my hair shows my texture prior to the treatment.  View the sheen and length after treatment.  This is a completely natural home remedy.  Care to learn more about kelp and how it supports hair growth, and the overall body-depending on how you use it.   Check out the link from Herb Wisdom for additional info.   http://www.herbwisdom.com/herb-kelp.html

Me, Myself, and I

Life can be so fast paced, non-stop at times. There are days when I say, 'I'd like to get off this ride and take a break!'  And I will slow down if at all possible, meaning saying no to someone, I can't help, I can't go.  Sometimes it's just necessary for me to check in with myself and realize when too much is too much.  Just two weeks ago, I was laid out on a beach, on an island, alone. No children, no husband, not even a girlfriend.  Just me, my music, and a good book.  It's rare that I get time alone, but I believe it's highly necessary.  I've gotten a few raised eyebrows because I have taken several trips without my children, a few outside of the country.  I don't feel guilty one bit.  I'm certainly not a perfect mother, but I know that quality time is important in my household, along with family fun, activities, and traveling.  Although challenging, stealing alone time really needs to be made a priority.  This time can attribute t...

Savvy Wash

Dishes and laundry are two household tasks that we all know well.  These are chores we picked up on way back in our teen years, if not younger.  You have probably got them down to a science, but how about I give you a few interesting facts and tips that can save time, energy, money, and protect  the environment.  Read on! We have an understanding that using the dishwasher is greener than washing by hand. This is true in most cases, and even more so if you have an energy-efficient dishwasher.  Here are a few suggestions to keep in mind to be even greener and cut costs on your water and electricity bills. Reduce your water consumption: Avoid pre-rinsing and only run full loads.  If you are neat freak and just hate to go to bed with a disorderly kitchen, throw the dishes in the dishwasher and run it once full. Try using the cold-water setting if this is an option on your dishwasher. Also let the dishes air dry, versus using the heat dry option.  The h...
