I love drinks. Sounds silly, but it’s true. Hot drinks, cold drinks, sparkling drinks, thick drinks, thin drinks and so on..
Well, this morning I wanted a new “pick me up” so I combined some of my favorite supplements into one cup with BAM.. A new love was formed! this hot energy drink tastes like cider and is loaded with benefits! Benefits like increasing mental fitness, cognitive alertness, physical acuity, supports adrenals and aids in digestion!!
WHAAAT!?? All in a drink?? Yep!!
Ingredients:
- 6-8 oz hot water
- 2 oz Ningxia Red
- 1 shot Nitro

Ok, moms! Who’s sending their kids on a mission trip or to summer camp? 🙋♀️ These types of activities are great opportunities for our kids to take ownership over their health practices! If you reach for oils at home on a daily basis, it will be first nature to them when they are away form you.
Prepare by making the necessary roller bottles and inhalers:
I pack roller bottles and inhalers to address physical and emotional needs they might have as they travel!
I buy the amber colored rollerballs with metal rollers and gold lids:
Roller Bottles from Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LrOnkV
✅Tummy: Digize, aroma-ease, lemon
✅Bravery: valor, inner child
✅ Insect and Bobo Eraser: purification, lavender, (citronella: optional)
We have used essential oil inhalers for years with great results! When you get the essential oil combo right it feels like mouthwash for the nasal passage! :P The results are AMAZING!
✅Calm: cedar-wood, peace and calming, copaiaba
✅Energy: peppermint, bergamot, lemon
✅Thieves Mouthwash in a squirt bottle for the airplane to clean breathe!
✅Thieves cough drops for all the singing
Of course I can only recommend YL oils because I know their standard and processes. Check out the Seed to Seal promise with YL here: https://www.youngliving.com/us/en/company/seed-to-seal
I’m an advocate for purity in all our products and foods. If you want to hear how toxins can affect us, I did a workshop on this last month and will send you the audio with the power point. Just ask me for it.
I would love to hear from you if you use any of these recipes!
This stuff is AWESOME for greasy hair. Especially if you are just now switching from toxic shampoo and conditioner to clean products. When you first do that, your scalp may not be used to what you’re giving it, so it could over produce oil. NO WORRIES. Finish your natural and clean shampoo and condition bottles, and use this dry shampoo to help keep the grease at bay while your body is adjusting to the new products.
DIY Dry Shampoo Recipe
Ingredients
4 TBLSP ARROWROOT, tapioca, or non GMO cornstarch
4 drops YL Peppermint Essential Oil
4 drops YL lavender Essential Oil
For Brunettes:
4 TBLS cocoa
For Blondes:
3/4 tsp turmeric
For Red Heads:
2 1/4 tsp paprika
Instructions:
Mix the dry ingredients in a small, very dry bowl and mix well with a dry spoon. If the coloring seems too light add more of the appropriate ingredient for your hair color. Add the essential oils and mix well. Add to an airtight container for storing. It would be ideal to use a foundation brush to apply the powder to your hair starting at the front and moving to the back. Run a comb through to distribute evenly. Enjoy your clean hair! (If I knew who to give credit to, I would! Thank you, Dana Crenshaw for sharing this with me! It's changed my life!):P
Let’s get SASSY! Ok, so it’s no joke that we have A LOT of girls in our home. And not just any girls, super fun, extra girly girls. I’ve loved learning and coming up with clean and safe alternatives for our home. A big one is hair care! The girls in our home want to participate in the daily “glam up”, while not harming our bodies with toxic chemicals. A couple of our favorites are the Sweet and Sassy Hair Spray and Dry Shampoo!
SASSY HAIRSPRAY
Ingredients
- 15 drops lavender essential oil
- 10 drops lemon essential oil
- 8 drops of Cedarwood essential oil
- 4 drops geranium essential oil (for dry hair types)
- half an ounce of vodka or Witch Hazel
- 5 ounces distilled water
Instructions:
Combine above ingredients in a spray bottle and spray onto dry, damp or wet hair. Best if sprayed before bed. Style as usual but beware… Your hair will be full of body, excess product residue and build up will be gone and you will need less styling products! Warning! Some women have reported a little more sassy in their step… Now isn’t that sweet?
