Health & Wellness

I am an actively recovering (managing) type A personality, business owner and a Mother of two. Stress and cortisol are no new phenomenon to me. I have always had to work on managing my stress levels and letting go of perfection. Motherhood added an entirely new rush of cortisol into my life because keeping babies healthy and happy is no joke. There is nothing I love MORE than being a Mother but I would be lying if I didn’t tell you that managing everyone’s schedules, meals, health, happiness and the mental load didn’t impact me on a daily basis. Stress and high levels of cortisol are known to make a massive impact on your overall health and are at the root of many illnesses and chronic disease. It is no surprise that Women (Mother’s in particular) experience an insurmountable level of autoimmune disease. Not that stress can’t impact Men too, simply ask my husband about the daily stressors of life and he could tell you he feels the same. But I wanted to shed some light on how something like a calming drink would be of interest to someone like me. Could it help reduce the intensity of my daily stress, lower my cortisol to a manageable level and help me feel better overall? I have tried many products that failed to help, but have landed on something in the last year that has helped incredibly. I wanted to share all about Nello Supercalm, a drink mix that tastes delicious (a must for me) and helps calm the system. I’m also sharing an exclusive Nello discount code.

Colostrum is a supplement that has gained some well deserved traction over the last few years. It is a whole food supplement rooted in ancient biological tradition that has kept humans healthy for a very long time. It provides a major dose of vitamins and minerals, bolsters up the immune system, heals the gut microbiome and so much more. I will get into the nitty gritty of Colostrum’s health benefits and why you should be taking it below. But, it can be confusing to choose which colostrum you should be taking.

I have both data and personal experience to share so you don’t have to waste your money trying them all for yourself. I have compared two of the top selling colostrum’s in a blog article HERE. Today, I wanted to compare Cowboy Colostrum vs Wondercow Colostrum. Let’s see how they stack up against each other and which I’ve decided to use for myself.

I have been purchasing and using Perfect Supplements Brand for many years now. They are an online wellness market that also creates their own line of supplements. I love that they carry many of my favorite wellness brands. I also particularly love their house brand of supplements, The Perfect Supplements brand. They have created a line of high quality yet affordable supplements. They also focus on whole food vitamins and supplements over synthetic vitamins. They have been where I purchase the bulk of our Family’s base supplements for many years.  I wanted to run through my favorite Perfect Supplements brand products that we re-purchase often. This is a complete review of Perfect Supplements brand and an exclusive Perfect Supplements discount code (scroll to the end).

Cowboy Colostrum has been my favorite bovine colostrum supplement for almost two years now. I have shared full reviews of their colostrum, all about the health benefits of taking colostrum supplements, how it helps boost immunity and more over the years. I am a huge advocate of colostrum for it’s ability to heal the gut, boost the immune system, clear the skin, help healthy hair grow and more. It really has become a staple in my family’s daily wellness routine. The best part? We all LOVE the taste. Cowboy Colostrum created the most delicious creamy flavors that blend well into different liquids and can be added to recipes easily. I am excited to share that they have launched their newest flavor: Cowboy Colostrum STRAWBERRY! It’s as delicious as it sounds and a complete throwback to one of my favorite flavors from the 90’s since I was a huge strawberry milk fan. But thankfully, Cowboy Colostrum Strawberry powder is much healthier than my beloved and departed strawberry nesquik powder from childhood. I’m sharing all about the new flavor, some incredible recipes that I’ve whipped up since getting my hands on this new flavor, and a Cowboy Colostrum discount code for all THV readers.

Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a trending wellness therapy that has gained popularity over the last decade or so. It’s been backed by thousands of studies for it’s ability to treat health ailments. Red Light Therapy used to only be available  in certain health practitioner’s offices. More recently, anyone can purchase their own red light therapy device for at home use.  Many companies have created red light therapy devices that are easy to use and incredibly effective. It can be confusing to know what company may be the best option. I have scoured the internet to find some of the best red light therapy devices in different markets. This post is highlighting my very favourite Canadian Red light therapy brand. Here is my Kala Red Light Therapy Review and exclusive Kala Red Light Therapy Discount Code (scroll to the bottom) for THV readers.

We’re gearing up to Summer time and that means shifting from snow suits to sunscreen. There are so many benefits to the suns rays. Especially the boost of Vitamin D we all receive through the Winter months. We often go outside and appreciate the health benefits the Sun can provide for us. That being said, there are many days where we need to consider Sunscreen. This can mean days where we will be outside at peak UV hours with less shade options. On days like this I like to ensure we have a non-toxic sunscreen handy so no one ends up burnt. Unfortunately, most sunscreens on the market are filled with harsh chemicals and additives. I don’t want to be applying this to my Family’s skin. Instead I opt for a non-toxic tallow sunscreen called Sky & Sol. Sky & Sol sunscreen is made with healthy and clean ingredients. In fact, their ingredients are so clean you could eat it (but don’t do that). Since summer is on it’s way, I figured what better time to put together a review of my favorite non toxic sunscreen brand. So here is my full review of the Best Tallow Sunscreen SPF 50 made by Sky & Sol. I’ve included an exclusive Sky & Sol Discount Code at the bottom of the article so you can save on quality non toxic sun care.
