Ever feel like you are just in a never-ending energy slump? Yeah, I’ve been there too. A lot. I usually just load myself up with caffeine and hope for the best, but in my effort to try to live 90% cleaner, I wanted to do a little better. With that in mind, I wanted to figure out how to boost…
90% Clean
I have to admit, I like junk food. Not just your typical sweets and candy (which are still excellent btw), but all of the carb-y goodness that french fries, doughnuts, cake, and bread have to offer as well. In my quest to live 90% cleaner, I’m also trying to clean up my diet without giving up every single comfort food…
Clear skin is the holy grail of any beauty regime. Who doesn’t want to have clear skin? I know I do. Clear skin means you can wear less makeup, have fewer hassles in your morning routine, and all around just feel better about yourself. But, due to that certain time of the month, a stressful event or work project, or…
During the cold winter months, it’s only natural to lock the house up air tight, start (or turn on) the fireplace, and hibernate for a while. The good thing about this is that it’s comforting, the bad thing is that it traps all of that air in the house, without new fresh air circulating in. With all of the off-gasing…
No matter which way you slice it, losing weight is not the easiest thing in the world. You have to watch what you eat, make sacrifices, and all around not like the process. I, like a lot of people out there, could stand to lose a couple of pounds that I have been holding on to a lot longer than…
I don’t know one person out there who doesn’t like some form of sugar. If you ever meet that person, please let me know. We are a country (and probably world) almost obsessed with sugar. There are even programs on TV that are dedicated to sugar decorating and competitions. Most of us also know that sugar is not the best…
Thinking about trying to make your Valentine’s Day a little more eco-friendly, maybe even some organic ideas floated in there? Gift giving is a perfect time to try out eco-friendly or organic products. People usually wouldn’t seek out these type of products, but once they have them, they will wonder how they ever lived without them and what a genius…
We all know that we should switch out all of our beauty products and cosmetics to cleaner versions, but the whole idea of finding clean products that work just as well as the conventional ones can be an overwhelming idea to say the least. If you don’t have the time, money or gumption to change all of your products out,…
Even with all of this winter cold, believe it or not, spring is not all that far away. And, with spring comes the hope of a fresh start and new beginnings. There is no other better new beginning than bringing a new baby into this world, and if you are going to be bringing a baby home soon, you are…
In honor of the New Year and trying to live healthier, I decided that I needed to add a green smoothie recipe into my life. I’ve been down this road before though, and most recipes that I found tasted chalky from protein powders, had too many weird ingredients, cost an arm and a leg to make, or just plain tasted…
