I started with a garden. I wanted to grow my own vegetables and be able to just run outside if I needed a tomato or something. We live in an in town neighborhood so I really don't have a ton of room but I was able to grow, three different kinds of tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, and blueberries (which never produced). Let me tell you though, those tomatoes, cucumbers, and green beans were great, I really had way to much and gave some away to my neighbors! Plus my son loved helping in the garden too. Next year I hope to add a second raised bed garden and I can't wait!
So when you're trying to eliminate toxins, that includes medicine, some of them just have such nasty side effects! I've never been a fan of taking medicine if I don't have to anyway so this wasn't as hard, but in August I decided to join Young Living Essential Oils as a wholesale member, which means I can now get oils with a 24% discount (if you want to try some, please let me know and I will add your order to mine so you can have the discount too!). I did a lot of research before I decided on Young Living but in the end, you just can't beat going with the original company, with 20 years of experience and a seed to seal guarantee. If you would like more information on Young Living or essential oils, please email me!
Needless to say, this is still a work in progress. I have eliminated shampoo & conditioner, body wash, deodorant, harsh cleaning products, and medicines (Tylenol, Advil, stuff like that, we were not on any prescriptions). Don't get me wrong, we don't not use soap now or anything. I'm making them instead and I LOVE it!! I know all the ingredients that go into them and know that they're safe, including being safe for a peanut allergy, you wouldn't believe the places those darn peanuts pop up, seriously! I'll be posting the recipes as I make and try them so that you all can enjoy them too! Here's an awesome mouthwash I made and love, while you wait for more to be posted!!
