Feeling fresh is always a concern of mine. I am teaching children all day long, and then I work with kids after school for tutoring. My work day is often very long, but I need to feel clean and fresh as much as possible. I always carry some hand-sanitizer with me to ensure that my hands stay germ free. I also have a supply of mints available in case my breathe doesn't feel as fresh as I … [Read more...]
Taking time out in my life for myself has been a struggle. I hardly spend time making myself feel great, because I spend a lot of time trying to make others feel great. This year I made it a goal to take better care of myself this year. Taking care of your skin is the most powerful way to make a difference in your appearance. A wonderful skin care line is worth its weight in gold if it … [Read more...]
Crest has just released an all new product for overall dental health, introducing the Crest Pro-Health Complete Rinse. I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had been invited to try the new Crest Pro-health Invigorating Clean Multi-Protection Rinse and tell about my experience. It has been a few weeks and I can tell you that this is by far my favorite mouth rinse I have ever tried! I love the … [Read more...]
My poor son has some bad genes when it comes to allergies. My husband suffers from asthma as well as allergies to numerous allergies to just about anything with fur. He has been getting allergy shots for the past 4-5 years! I am not allergic to as many things, but getting a cat is out of the question. Knowing that TJ would be susceptible to allergies, we have a home air purifier separate … [Read more...]
We are huge fans of Horizon Organic milk in our household. I refuse to buy anything but organic milk for TJ. After seeing how quickly regular milk spoils and hearing about all the chemicals they put into milk or feed the cows, I am not comfortable giving anything but organic milk to my family. While it might cost a little bit more than store brand milk, the benefits far outweigh the price … [Read more...]
Maintaining a healthy immune and digestive system depends a lot on having more good bacteria in your body than bad bacteria. TJ is exposed to germs a lot. He goes to daycare, and then his mommy works in an elementary school so the germs are flowing around our house. We do a lot of things to keep TJ as healthy as possible. Recently we have been using Culturelle Probiotics for Kids to … [Read more...]
I despise the cold and flu season. As a teacher I am constantly in contact with germs. This past month we had a lot of kids out of school because of a cold or the flu. I use Lysol wipes and spray in my house and my classroom to try to minimise the cold and flu from infecting those that I care about. Did you know flu and cold activity most commonly peaks in the U.S. in January or February? … [Read more...]
We are a family that uses a lot of hand sanitizer. I am a teacher and I will do anything to stay healthy throughout the school year. I have had to deal with dry hands for a while because of all my hand sanitizer usage (combined with the fact that I have been blessed with bad skin). My husband works in law enforcement and often uses hand sanitizer out in the field when he can't get to a … [Read more...]
I take a daily multivitamin to ensure that I get all the nutrients that my diet might leave out. I try to maintain a healthy lifestyle. One thing I have hardly ever worried about is how much fiber I was getting in my diet. Experts tell us we need fiber, which comes from whole grains, vegetables and fruits, to help support your digestive system and maintain immunity. But as busy women on … [Read more...]
In honor of Barbara's Bakery's 40th birthday, I am encouraging my readers to make a stand and say NO to bad snack foods and YES to natural foods. Around this time of year, a lot of people make New Year Resolutions to be healthier in the upcoming year. I admit that I try to eat better and exercise more, but I usually fail. One of the major reasons that I find it hard to keep up with a … [Read more...]
