The Ugly Feet Cure



Suffering from chapped skin, odor, rashes, or perhaps foot or nail fungus?  As always, I will say that some symptoms call for medical attention and are possibly signs for underlying illnesses or ailments.  But, if your symptoms appear to be payback for ignoring your feet for a period of time, the remedies/recipes mentioned may assist in getting your 'baby' feet back.  Cconsider these easy tricks to avoid the shame in showing of your toes this Summer: 

Foot Polish - *great for dry skin
Mix brown sugar with coconut oil, and massage concoction into feet.  Pay close attention to cracks in heels.  Wrap feet in plastic wrap for 30-45 minutes.

Foot Scrub- *address odor and cracks in feet
Mix cornstarch with aloe vera juice to form a mud-like paste.  Rub small batch of mixture over feet.  Cleanse with warm water once the product has set and completely dried out. 

Foot Milk Bath- *soothe aches and pain for disgruntle toes
Mix warm milk and blueberries in a small tub/bucket/bowl.  Let your feet rest in the bowl for 30 minutes, then rinse with warm water.  Blueberries are packed with both vitamins a and c.  This easy recipe will leave your feet soft to the touch and improve the overall appearance. 

Foot Zest- *refresh and cleanse feet
Grind orange/and or lemon peels into a powder substance, along with essential oils like peppermint, rosemary, or eucalyptus.  Rinse with fresh warm water.  This will freshen your pretty toes in addition to clearing up fungus and bacteria.  Perform this technique once every few days for about a week. 

Foot Salt Scrub- *remove dead skin
Mix sea salt with coconut or olive oil.  Vigorously rub on feet and wear a pair of old socks for an hour or so.  The longer you wear the socks, the more effective this process will be. 

I of course have my own homemade remedies that I prefer to use at times, but if you are in need of a quick fix, consider paying $20 and purchase Baby Feet at Amazon.com  http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Foot-Easy-Pack-1-2/dp/B00461F4PA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364397203&sr=8-1&keywords=baby+feet.  This is a natural product that's so easy to use.

Unbelievable results are possible for your feet if you start giving them the tlc they deserve!!

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...
