Creating a rich life means being the best YOU
Here is where I keep recipes and products that help achieve clean simple living. What’s that? To put it simply, it is incredible what our bodies and minds are capable of when we surround ourselves with wholesome, clean items. Going green or aiming to create zero waste are a few examples. After my husband was diagnosed with cancer, we learned that several common household products were harmful for our bodies. Many of which included cleaning products that we thought were safe.
Now we are careful about what we introduce into our home. Along the way I have discovered I enjoy making my own cleaning supplies as well as discovering what great products others have made.
And the best part is that this change isn’t hard to make! Better yet you might find it fun.
