Why I Use Non-Hormonal Birth Control
There are many reasons why I choose not to use a hormonal birth control. I do not think that it’s normal for us to not have regular periods. God designed our bodies to naturally have monthly cycles and some hormonal birth controls stop you from having a period all together. The concoction of chemicals makes me weary on how much it affects your body while you’re taking them and when you decide to stop and try to conceive naturally. In the US, the numbers of infertility amongst women are growing by the day. These are caused by many factors and one of them can be side effects from hormonal birth…

Stretches you should try to do every morning + night!
One of the things that I try to do every day for my health is stretch. Stretching is important. When you take the time to stretch it helps to keep your muscles flexible, strong and working properly.

Non Toxic Sunscreen Guide
The kids are officially back in school and I’m dreaming of cooler temps, but the reality is… it’s still HOT HOT HOT here in South Carolina. Now that we have a pool in our backyard, the kids are wanting to swim 24/7 when they’re not at school and I am making sure that they are covered in sunscreen. There will be no burns on my watch! Before I had kids, I was really lacking knowledge in the sunscreen department. My idea of protection was slathering on Banana Boat body oil and feeling the burn! (cringe!) After I had Nolan, I started researching about sunscreens to use and was shocked at…

Please read my disclaimer page for more information. When you enter the nontoxic world, it is easy to become overwhelmed with information.
