The Clean House Rules!



Everyone loves a clean, bacteria safe, germ-free, disinfected home. Well if you haven't made the green switch yet, the time has come.   This is not a "bandwagon" you're jumping on either.  This is necessary for protecting your family.  Natural homemade cleaning products aren’t just safer for us health wise, they are also more cost-effective while protecting the environment.  It's a win-win situation in comparison to the alternative - a germ free home with dangerous, and possibly, deadly side effects.

Many times, the aftermath of chemical exposure is hidden unless you suffer from asthma and allergies. However, our skin and lungs are silently effected by the contact of these toxic cleaning products, and even more so when we involve children and babies.

Long term, the toxins in your cleaning products can disrupt the hormonal system, cause irreversible eye conditions and visual damage, trigger asthma attacks, lead to skin discoloration or rashes, attack the lungs and other organs, and more.

With green cleaning in my home, I freely clean with my children and pet in the vicinity and even within close distance.  They can partake in cleaning the home, as the products don't consists of dangerous toxins that can harm their little lungs, or burn their eyes.  No need to air out the house, because a well ventilated place is not required.  My daughter  suffers from both allergies and asthma, so green cleaning was clearly the only option for home.

So are you ready to put those chemicals away, protect your family and your space?  See how you can create your own cleaning products - view the links below from the Greatist, The Raw Greek blog, and Earth Easy sites.  Save money, save your home!  

Bon Pour Moi offers a line of cleaning products if you prefer to purchase vs creating.  Prices range from $4-$7, and various scents are available.  Happy Cleaning!

Moroccan Red Clay - hair and beauty treatments

Red clay is one of my recent discoveries.  I came across the name numerous times while surfing the Internet, and only read great reviews.  I decided to make a purchase a few months back, and finally put this clay to use. Most of you know that I have tried several clays, and have been satisfied with each one.  I try to keep them on hand and tend to use them more for my hair than for my face or body.  My favorite clays are Indian clay and Kaolin clay.  Simply add water, aloe vera juice, and/or apple cider vinegar, and you've created an instant paste.  The amount of liquid used will of course be based on what you're creating; facial, hair conditioner, foot application, etc. Red clay can also be used on the body, head to toe.  It has been used for centuries- across the world.   Tackle blemishes or create cleaner and clearer skin.  Alleviate acne, discoloration and create youthful skin.  If you are suffering from any of...

Self Care- Make it a Habit

Self care habits in progress. I feel so good when I take time out to treat myself. It pleases me  even more when the practice is inexpensive. Polishing my nails, at-home facial, or sometimes a lengthy shower or bath.  It's extremely important to make time for yourself. I know we hear this often, but self care really promotes mental and physical health. If you're having a rough day, challenging week, or simply feeling  overwhelmed or unenthusiastic about circumstances, I strongly urge you to make time for yourself. I find that I am able to think clearer, and my stress levels are reduced significantly after I practice self care.  Sharing a few self care pics below; at home facial, read book alone in the car, or outside in the sun, make a fun (favorite drink) to enjoy alone, or try an at home mani/pedicure. I also find drawing and painting extremely relaxing. Perhaps you can take a walk or get your heart pumping by exercising. Try slower movements with yoga or pilates....
