Stinkbug Deodorant
This post has been compensated by Stinkbug Naturals. All opinions are my own, please read my disclaimer page for more information. When I transitioned to a non toxic lifestyle, finding a deodorant free of chemicals but controls BO has been challenging. After seven years, I can finally say that I found one that meets my standards. Stinkbug Naturals has been a lifesaver for my husband, Derrek, and myself. I have always been a “stinky” girl, to the point that I had prescribed antiperspirant when I was in college. I’ve bounced around from brand to brand and found that the most toxic deodorant would cover my smell. Parabens, which are preservatives used…

ELDERBERRY IS A MUST
My family and I have lived a non toxic lifestyle for almost 6.5 years now and I’ve researched and learned a lot through out that time. I am not a doctor so please don’t think of this as medical advice, but I have done more than my fair share of research. Also my husband is a Doctor of Chiropractic so between him and myself, we are very confident in our decisions when it comes to treating our family holistically. During cold and flu season, I am very passionate about treating without prescription meds. I feel like this is something that we can all learn from and use to really take…

Why I Suggest Buying a Live Christmas Tree
It genuinely interests me to find new ways to decrease my toxic load. I know that it’s impossible to completely phase out every single toxin but I am a firm believer that small changes make a big impact. This brings me to a great way we could also decrease our toxic load this season. Growing up, we always had artificial trees in our home but when I met Derrek he was so persistent on buying a real tree for our first Christmas. I was so irritated at him because I was always told it was a fire hazard. Little did I know, he knew better than me. It kills me…

Go Go Green Juice – Celery FTW
A little over a month ago, I started implementing a new thing into my routine. I follow a lady on instagram who raved for months about the amazing benefits you get from drinking celery juice. Apparently, I was sleeping under a rock because I had never heard of this before! I became super curious and excited to find a reason to break out my juicer again. I actually threw away my old juicer when we moved back in March because a piece was broken during our move. When I had it before the kids and I would always make random juice concoctions with oranges, carrots and cucumbers… I always steered…
