I am over it.
Every day there is a new symptom.
Stuffy nose
Uncontrollable cough
Pain around my 12 year old's belly button
Our schedules are off and we either can't sleep or are exhausted.
I am seriously over it.
We already have a pretty healthy household.
If you didn't already know ... I am a little crunchy. I still shave my legs but no candles or toxic ingredients over at my house. No sir.
But I know there are a few items that we could add to our home that would make it way more healthy.
1) I buy bottled water.
Boo ... I know. But I just don't like how the Brita filters work and tap water is just plain gross (in my opinion).
If I had this bad boy ...
The Berkey Water Filtration System ... I would no longer need the bottled water.
And let me tell you, the water filtered through this thing tastes amazing.
It does cost $288 but I think it is well worth it to have a the junk removed from the water we drink.
The only downside is that it sits on a counter and we just don't have a lot of counter space in our small kitchen.
2) Pink Himalayan Sea Salt Lamp
Ok this does look very crunchy but the health benefits of this lamp are amazing. It is relatively inexpensive around $35 or less.
The Wellness Mama has a post about the benefits but the short list is that it provides cleaner air, eliminates allergies, and increases your mood!
If I was really wishing I would want one of these bad boys in each bedroom and then one in the living room.
3) Young Living Aria Ultrasonic Home Diffuser
I love everything Young Living! I already have 2 home diffusers but this one is on my wish list. It is expensive at $225 but it has a remote with built in sounds and LED multicolored lights. I think this would be beautiful in our bedroom. Since we co-sleep it would be beneficial for the littles who sleep with us as well. See how I am trying to justify it.
Right now if you purchase it through Young Living you get a 5ml bottle of Northern Lights Black Spruce for free.
Side Note: If you are interested in Young Living oils please contact me. I would love to talk oils with you!
4) Hydrolyzed Collagen
Ok I am sure that this sounds gross ... if you are not the crunchy type ... but if you are the crunchy type then you probably already know what this is.
And right now The Humbled Homemaker is having a giveaway.
I was so glad that she admitted that she doesn't like to drink bone broth to stay healthy because I don't like it either. I would drink if it was in soup but I would never just drink a cup full.
No way.
So this is an easy way to get the healthy hydrolyzed collagen your body needs to stay healthy.
Go here and enter the giveaway. I know that I will.
5) A friend's get-together
I don't know about you but I need to get together with people in order to stay emotionally healthy. Especially people you think and believe like I do. Actually, it can be fun to have people around that are nothing like me either.
But with the weather getting colder in the midwest, it gets harder to get together with people.
Winter = house bound for me! Boo
So because I need adult interation I decided to start a book club on Periscope! That way I don't have to leave my house but I still get to hang out with people ... not just people ... adults!
The book we are starting next week is called Say Goodbye to Survival Mode: 9 Simple Strategies to Stress Less, Sleep More, and Restore Your Passion for Life.
I just did my first Periscope today ... just introducing myself and saying hello.
I hope that you come find me and join in.
