This Is What I Learned About How Yoga Helps Your Spine
Spine health is something that we should all focus on but it’s not something that we know a lot about due to education. I did not know anything about how important taking care of our spines are until I met my husband Derrek, a chiropractor and the person who educated me on this subject.

This post is in partner with Lovevery! All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. With five kids, I’ve seen my fair share of kid’s toys.

The garden that the kids and I planted earlier this spring did exceptionally well. A few things just didn’t grow like we wanted, spinach, kale and beets didn’t produce like previous years but I’m proud of what we’ve grown, is still coming up to pick and what we can start planting for fall. I suggest that anyone that can, grow some sort of garden. Even by using small planters indoors if you don’t have outdoor space, you can make it happen to grow your…

This post is in partner with AirDoctor. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. 2020 has made me look into and refocus my attention on many different things, one of those being the quality of the air in my home. As many of you know, I strive to live a nontoxic lifestyle. This is something that is a continuous and is something that we can all do. Here I am, several years into this transition because I’ve decided to be happy with progress over perfection, and I added an air purifier to our home. I focused hard on air purifying when Vivi…
