How to Choose an Organic Mattress: Obasan Organic Bed Review

October 8, 2020

I’ve been searching for and researching organic mattresses for a few years now knowing that I would have to upgrade my youngest to a big bed eventually. Now that the time has come and passed, I wanted to let you in on the process of purchasing a brand new mattress that was as healthy as possible. There are so many things to consider when it comes to investing in an organic mattress. I’m also sharing the cleanest organic brand that we landed on after spending a lot of time looking into different brand options.

* This items in this post were gifted to me by Obasan after I contacted them personally. As always, I will only recommend brands that have passed my seal of approval and that I truly love. After testing these products for 60 days, this is my honest review. Thank you for supporting my little green space on the internet. *

Organic First Aid Kit for on the Go (What’s in my Purse)

August 1, 2020

Over the years, I have managed to find some of the best quality on the go first aid items to keep in my purse. When you’re out and about with Children its quite often you might find yourself in need of an item for a bruise or a cut. If you don’t have it, then there’s the inconvenient rush to the nearest pharmacy to purchase an option you wouldn’t necessarily opt for. I don’t like being in a pinch when it comes to this scenario and I’m not always going to be near a health food store that can supply me with the options I have vetted over the years, so I have created a little pouch of natural health supports for every scenario I could think of. I continue to add as I go but being over 5 years into Motherhood, I’ve pretty much nailed down most of the necessities. These options aren’t just for kids, you can carry these around for yourself and to have on hand to offer to others if they are in need.

Thieves Natural Household Cleaner Review + DIY Recipes + Dilution Ratios

July 5, 2020

Cleaning my home is something I like to keep up and I especially like knowing that the products I’m using are natural as well as effective. We all know essential oils can be great tools to keep surfaces clean and get rid of pesky germs, but it’s important to get the right blend of oils to ensure you are effectively managing household germs and grime. I had always dabbled in Thieves cleaning products but when my Daughter enrolled into her first year of Kindergarten I wanted to ensure that I was managing all those germs that were headed my way each day. Previous to school, I had her home with me and while I still maintained a clean home I wanted to make sure I achieved a deeper clean without compromising on keeping conventional cleaning products out of my home. My only regret was that I hadn’t bought the entire Thieves kit sooner. I had started with the thieves essential oil to diffuse into the air at home, their foaming hand soaps, hand sanitizer, fruit and veggie soak, and concentrated cleaner and LOVED them. But adding in the laundry soap, toothpastes, on the go sanitizing spray (hello dirty shopping cart handles), and dish soap were an even bigger game changer.

The 3 Most Effective & Natural Headache Remedies

June 24, 2020

Headaches are something we’ve all dealt with, I’ve been dealing with more of them particularly since having my children. It’s the one thing that has lingered since my pregnancies and despite living a healthy lifestyle I still find myself getting tension headaches at least a few times monthly. While that may not be as bad as some people have to face, its not fun. Having to parent children who love to make noise and explore at the same time can be challenging when your head is throbbing. So I generally need some sort of relief.

Safe and Natural Nail Polish for Children (15-Free & Made with Fruits and Veggies)

June 16, 2020

My Daughter has been asking me to paint her nails for atleast a year now. She’s five and sees her friends come to school with rainbow coloured nails adorned with tiny little stickers of unicorns and hearts stuck on them. It’s something I enjoyed as a little girl, having my Mom paint my nails for me.. so it hurts a bit when I’m the Mom who says “No”. I’d love more than anything to share that bonding time with her, she’s naturally as girly as they come and her little face sinking when I don’t allow nail polish strikes the level of Mom guilt to a 10.

Healthy + Vegetable Packed Carrot Cake Muffins (Vegan Option)

February 20, 2020

Muffins are an amazing way to get nutrient dense foods in one big swoop. I love getting new muffin recipes..the best thing about muffins is that you can pack a ton of healthy and nourishing ingredients in them. Even the pickiest of eaters are more likely to eat a muffin that’s filled with foods they wouldn’t normally eat separated. I have home made muffins on hand almost every week for my entire family to grab on the go. They make for the easiest breakfast during busy school mornings and they are a food that is well loved by my Baby. He gobbles them up! I like to play around with recipes and this is a mix of a few of my own recipes and one that my friend gave to me recently. It’s a spin on carrot cake, my absolute favourite.
