Motivation Monday anyone?!?!

Sometimes Monday's feel like the middle of the week and sometimes not so much. Today, not so much. Take a moment to ready the quote below and reflect. It does wonders for a person to have their day made. Put a smile on someones face this week!

Member Service Hours

Young Living has extended their Member Service hours. They are now closed on Sundays by phone, but available later hours Monday through Saturday. And by chat of course. 

Thieves Dish Soap

This is one of the many Thieves products we keep stocked in our house! It's awesome; plant-based, natural and smells amazing.

Contains Thieves, Jade Lemon and Bergamot essential oils.

It's free of SLS, SLES, dyes, formaldehyde, phosphates and synthetic perfumes!

Soda Splurge!

I'm not a regular soda drinker, or pop if you call it that... But today an Orange soda sounded really good. So, what did I do? I snatched a Sprite and added 2 drops of Young Living Orange Essential Oil. #splurge

Below is Nutrition Facts off the label of Orange Soda. It is becoming common knowledge in today's society that many of the ingredients in soda are not healthy for you; whether it is Coke, Grape, Cherry Pepsi or Orange soda.

Between the high sugar, artificial colors, high fructose corn syrup... it doesn't make me wonder why America's obesity rate continues to increase. Of course fast food and other unhealthy eating and exercise habits contribute to that as well.

Now this is the label of a Sprite. There is still sugar, but 24 grams vs. 44 grams.

I'll take half the sugar any day. It contains literally half the sugar content. I almost did a double take because it just doesn't make sense the sugar is double, but it is!

For me, all I need to do is add 2 drops of YL Orange Essential Oil and wah-la I am now sipping on an 'orange' soda; without the added sugar, calories and artificial colors.

End result; clean soda & organic EO! 

What makes you feel great?

It the world we call current, it feels like someone is always judging us for our actions, our words, our beliefs. I'm sure you could continue to add to the list if given some thought. What truly makes you feel great? 

I love the quote below because it hits the heart of what makes me feel great. I have enjoyed being a hairdresser for that reason, making each and every person feel like a "somebody" when they leave. Some already have that feeling before even sitting down, but many don't. Do you recall the true reason you went to the salon last? Maybe you can't style your hair anymore. Or you want something new. You're feeling down so you want to spruce something up. Many people come into the salon because they don't feel great about themselves and want a change, something new to make them feel great. THAT is why I loved being a hairdresser.

Now that those days are behind me (for now anyways) it reiterates why this quote hits the sole with me. I strive to 'be somebody who make someone else feel great'. 

Make someone smile today.

NingXia Red

Spring is here, at last... well it is supposed to be! We are expecting more SNOW in Wisconsin this week, but I'm not letting that bring my spirit down! I've recently started a new workout program and I'm loving it. It has me inspired for the new season regardless what Mother Nature throws at me!

With spring comes gardening. Do you garden? I grew up gardening and now that I'm a homeowner, I'll be kicking it into gear this year. You'll hear all about it right here on my blog!

I love my fruits and veggies. My husband, not so much with the veggie part, but he's not terrible. We take 1 oz of NingXia Red a day to make sure we are getting the energy and nutrients we need on a daily basis, the healthy way. Take a look!

This is not intended to replace your fruits and veggies but give you a boost. You should still strive to get those whole foods into your body but hey, sometimes it just isn't possible. Why not make a daily routine of NingXia Red? It'll give you energy and nutrients. 

Don't get me wrong, I still love a good cup of coffee in the morning sometimes!

Once Upon a Prom

Guess what I did this weekend?

Once Upon a Prom!!!!!

I love this event and hope to continue to have the opportunity each and every year. Check out the About Me page to learn what it's all about. 

Chemical Cleaners vs Natural Cleaner(s)

As much as I'd love to say it's "common sense" that chemicals are bad for you, your children, your pets, your life... It's not all the common knowledge anymore. Everything we read from government websites to personal testimonies, the mis-information is always surrounding us. 

Whether you decide to keep using whatever cleaning products you have stock piled in your home or not, remember to do your research on everything you are using! It could save someone from being accidentally harmed intrusive chemical cleaners.

On a more positive note, wouldn't it be great to dispose ALL your chemical cleaners with one, literally one; all natural cleaner?

I'm a member of YL so I get the discount and I contemplated the cost benefits, chemical-free benefits and even the quantity you get out of the product... which seemed to be a no-brainier. I had to AT LEAST try the product and see what everyone claims to clean so happily with.

Now, it's "my cleaning go-to". I am a DIY kind of person so I have other cleaning products around the house but guess what? They are made from this product (or YL Thieves EO)! Can't complain. It is so simple and so affordable, actually more affordable than jumping in the car and going to the store to purchase several cleaners. 

Just how much money can you save? Well, take a look! 

Bet you can't get a bottle of all-purpose cleaner that cheap, even at your local Dollar Store!

But like I said, it's so much better than that. You can use this one product for windows, floors, toilets, sinks, showers.... the list goes on and on and on...
