Liquid Hand Soap Recipe

February 25, 2015 by Katie Wells

We go through a lot of hand soap. A lot. From the diaper changes to the “mom come wipe me”s, there is much hand washing in our house. Ever the DIYer, I’ve been making foaming hand soap for years, and we still use it daily. The only downside of foaming hand soap is that you …

Sore Nose Soothing Balm Recipe

February 23, 2015 by Katie Wells

I’m grateful that we don’t often get sick, but when we do, it is typically the runny nose and mild cough type of illness (or just seasonal allergies). I use my natural remedies to help speed recovery, but inevitably, at least one of the children will end up with a sore, red nose from wiping …

Xylitol: Is It Healthy or Safe?

February 22, 2015 by Katie Wells

I use xylitol in my simple whitening toothpaste and by far the most asked question in the comments of that post is about the safety of xylitol usage. Though it is absolutely not safe (and can even be deadly) to dogs, there is some evidence that it has benefits in humans, especially for oral use. …

Tart Cherry Sleep Gummies Recipe

February 20, 2015 by Katie Wells

As a mom, I’m all for recipes that simplify and save time. That’s why our dinner rotation includes simple one-pan dishes like beef and cabbage stir fry and Pakistani kima, and why I pre-make coconut oil pulling chews to do oil pulling every morning so that I don’t have to open multiple containers each day …

Can Food Affect Your Mental Health?

February 18, 2015 by Katie Wells

Note from Katie: I’ve mentioned GAPS before and how that protocol affected our son’s mood and his allergies and today, Kayla Grossman, R.N. (who blogs at Radiant Life Catalog) is sharing her knowledge about the connection between food and mood . Enter Kayla… If there is something I wish I understood long ago, it is the deep, …

Why I Stopped Using Only DIY Green Cleaners

February 14, 2015 by Katie Wells

I have a confession to make… I’m lazy when it comes to cleaning. In fact, that is why I started using multipurpose homemade green cleaners in the first place… I could clean the majority of my house without the need for a bucket full of cleaning products. Green Cleaner Troubles… Unfortunately for my DIY green cleaners, vinegar stinks and …

Homemade Dog Food: Real Food for Pets

February 13, 2015 by Katie Wells

I must admit, this post on homemade dog food was written and ready to post weeks ago… but the day before I was planning to publish it our family dog Daisy (pictured in this post) jumped our fence and was hit by a car and killed. The kids (and I) have taken it pretty hard so …

Natural Liquid Foundation Recipe

February 9, 2015 by Katie Wells

I’ve shared my homemade powdered makeup recipes before but I’ve been playing with a liquid foundation or creme recipe for months (ok, years). Until now, it has just frustrated me and all of the trial recipes turned into tinted body butters or cremes because they didn’t offer enough coverage or offered too much. Some looked …

What Is a MTHFR Mutation?

February 5, 2015 by Katie Wells

When you have an autoimmune disease like I do, you get to learn a whole new language when it comes to your health. Terms like TSH, flare, leaky gut, and triggers become part of your vocabulary. One term that I’ve gotten many questions about lately and that deserves the attention it is finally getting is …
