I think most of you know that I choose alternate family medicine for myself and my family rather than traditional medicine. Now, I’m not saying we never use medications or go to the doctor. I think if you’ve read my birth story you will already know that. 🙂 While I know that our doctors and nurses serve a very important part in our communities; I also feel that as a culture here in America we are way too fast to […]

Awhile back I ordered a baby bath blend of herbs from the Bulk Herb Store. It smelled amazing and was intended that you make infusions and pour the infusions into the baby’s bath water.

I started watching what I ate and right away noticed that highly processed foods such as white bread, fake butter and white sugars made it much worse. After about two weeks of dealing with this, it was time for hubby and I to go […]
