This one goes out to all the mamas, baby mamas, and grandmamas.
Did you know that it only takes 26 seconds for the cleaning CHEMICALS in your floor to enter your child’s bloodstream through their feet? WW! Let that sink in.
It may be time to consider switching stores— if not for you, for your little ones.
I am so glad I found plant-based cleaners for our home at The Wellness Store. Our heath improved and I’ve never looked back!
Growoing up, we always had one of these plants in our house. One had been in the family for generations. We called it the Snake Plant—it was great, it didn’t need much in the way of care, but it was a steady grower. Some people told us they called it the “Bedroom plant” as they kept it in the bedroom as an air purifier. Today, I have a large one in my living room and many larger ones out along my fence in the backyard, and they are spreading. Now I found out the “old wives tales” about purifying the air are true!
NASA has classified Sansevieria, now called Dracaena, as an air purifier due to its ability to remove toxic compounds such as benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, xylene and toluene.
This plant uses the acid metabolism of the Crassulaceae to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide, enabling it to resist drought.
The microscopic pores on its leaves, called stomata, open only at night to limit water loss through transpiration in the heat of the sun. Unlike other plants, Sansevieria produces oxygen and absorbs carbon dioxide at night, making it an excellent indoor air purifier while we sleep.
Draft baby detergent, is’s good, right? Well, not necessarily. Many of you probably use a different detergent for your baby’s clothes, and you probably assume this detergent is a special formulation. This is very rarely the case
Any laundry detergent you use will leave a residue on clothing and linens, which is then inhaled and absorbed (via skin) by the people who come in contact with it…and most conventional detergents, be they marketed for baby clothes or grownup clothes, contain some combination of the following:
• synthetic detergents, which are often made of petrochemicals;
• phenols (established endocrine disruptors, of which BPA is the most notorious);
• fragrance, which often contains phthalates;
• optical brighteners, which are often made from benzene, a definite carcinogen;
• bleach, which contains chlorine (an environmental toxin–and possibly a carcinogen and endocrine disruptor);
• phosphates, which break down minerals and render detergent more effective, at the cost of harmful environmental ramifications.
Another one of the many reasons I switched stores. The link below lists Dreft Baby Detergent ingredient by ingredient and shows the various ingredients and toxins it contains.
My go to cofffee is now organic.. I learned that coffee beans are the most heavily sprayed with pesticides so I only drink organic now…and this one is the best I’ve tried!
We are attracting capable, talented, positive families into our lives and business. Each day we pray for more like-minded people to live their lives with us. Over the past 20 years I’ve been blessed beyond measure to meet and work with some of the most amazing people on earth. The list is large—literally hundreds of families that have said “Yes”.
I’m so happy to say many lives have been changed. I am beyond grateful to each and every one who decided to take this path path to wellness. The Best is yet to come.
This is one tip that I’ve used in my home for several years now. MelaBoost is a laundry fragrance booster that my entire family loves. When the bottle is empty, I fill it up halfway with water and give it a good shake. I mix a few capfuls of rubbing alcohol with it to help it evaporate after I spraying. I had a spare Reivie spray bottle so I decided to use that and wrote “Boost” on the side so I know what I’m grabbing. So now you are probably wondering, what the heck do I use it for? Well, this is the best way to use every last drop of MelaBoost and I use it as a room refresher spray on soft surfaces, such as the couch; carpet; curtains; blankets; dog beds; and beds. It helps everything smell like heaven and not a a drop of this goodness is wasted!
Cholesterol is wrongly demonized. It is actually essential for life and health, that is why our body makes it. Cholesterol is a fat-like, waxy substance that helps your body make cell membranes, many hormones, and vitamin D. The cholesterol in your blood comes from two sources: the foods you eat and your liver. Sugars and carbs and insulin is what makes it a problem, not fats.
Have you noticed… The faster you try to lose weight the more your body will resist?
You need a sustainable solution to keep the weight off. Losing weight is about adopting healthy habits.
You see… You don’t have a weight problem, you have a lifestyle problem.
Do you need a tribe to keep you focused on healthy, lifetime changes?
