What is Fulvic Acid?

November 30, 2014 by Katie Wells

I’m always fascinated when modern research and science explain things that traditional cultures have intuitively known for years. For instance, modern science is uncovering the many important roles that Vitamin K2 plays in the body and how it supports oral health, and many traditional cultures have eaten K2 rich foods like raw dairy and natto for …

Coconut Oil Pulling Chews

November 26, 2014 by Katie Wells

I’m a big fan of oil pulling. I’ve shared before how I originally started this age-old practice and why I eventually started using coconut oil for oil pulling instead. Why Oil Pulling? If you aren’t familiar with oil pulling, it is simply swishing oil (usually sesame or coconut oil) in the mouth for a period of …

Bronzing Moroccan Oils Lotion Bars

November 25, 2014 by Katie Wells

Ever since I made my first basic lotion bars, I’ve been experimenting with fun variations and natural scents. Lotion bars are wonderful because they are used on dry skin and are a concentrated lotion that leaves skin feeling like silk.

The Dark Side of Blogging

November 21, 2014 by Katie Wells

This week something happened that doesn’t happen often. I got mad. Not to say I don’t have bad days, but I rarely get in a pissed-off, mad-at-the-world mood. But this week I did. Don’t get me wrong- I have days where I wish I kept my cool with my kids, or wish I stayed calm or got …

Why I DON’T Use Antibacterial Soap

November 20, 2014 by Katie Wells

In our home, we don’t use antibacterial soap in any form. I realize that statement may sound like heresy as we launch into flu season, but our decision is supported by science. Is Antibacterial Soap More Effective? Last year, the FDA announced that there was no added benefit to antibacterial soaps over plain soap and water …

Natural Shimmer Lip Balm Recipe

November 7, 2014 by Katie Wells

I love making my own cosmetics. I’ve made foundation, natural bronzer, homemade lipstick and even mascara (recipe coming soon!). In the comments of my homemade lipstick post, I had multiple people ask if there was an alternative to the beet root powder since theirs didn’t seem to be incorporating correctly. A natural option that shines… …

Lemon Basil Natural Cleaning Spray (Borax Free)

November 3, 2014 by Katie Wells

Last week, within a 24-hour period, we had 5 separate spills that caused big messes at our house. One was the shattering of a quart size jar of homemade elderberry syrup, another involved tomato sauce on a wall, and yet another involved mashed sweet potatoes painted on the side of our Berkey filter. Needless to …
