Holistic Precautions to Stay Healthy

Hi my loves!

How was everyone’s Saturday? Good I hope, despite the nasty weather here it's been going great! I am trying to limit my familes exposure to germs and the seasonal/swine flu. I do not believe in the flu shot, because I PREFER to TAKE the proactive holistic approach to protect my family rather them pumping our bodies with formaldehyde's and heavy metals.. I have incorporated these healthy holistic approaches in my home for many years now. My family rarely gets sick, if we do I cut our sickness time in half. Knock on wood my son's have NEVER, had a ear infection or taken a dose of antibiotics.. I have also recently scoured the Internet for more information on the seasonal / swine flu, I came up with this essential TO DO LIST....

Wash hands for 20 seconds with soap OFTEN (avoiding anti-bacterial gels). A good trick is to SING the "Happy Birthday" song TWO times while hand washing.

PLENTY OF REST! (7-8 HOURS A NIGHT)

Don't touch face (KEEP YOUR FINGERS OUT OF YOUR MONTH AND NOSE!! Sorry TO COME ACROSS SO BOLD but I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, I do not mean to sound like your MOM!!)

Get Vitamin D!!! (I get mine from the sun, 15-25 minutes daily or every other day~ I do also supplement on occicaion.)

Gargle with warm salt water twice a day (I use Celtic salt daily in my home. Celtic salt has pure balanced minerals. These minerals are essential for our Vitality.) Take warm Celtic salt water and dip a q-tip into it and swab the inside of nostrils daily.

USE a Neti pot (My family uses our Neti pot every other day, WE LOVE IT~ The best $25.00 investment~ I MADE for my families health. FIRST TIME we used it we could feel the difference, when we removed the "yucky" toxins from our nasal passages. The Neti pot is great if you have allergies too.)

Eat fresh, organic, raw garlic (l LOVE GARLIC!! Call me crazy girl, but I love the lingering smell on my fingers after chopping it.)

Take your Vitamins and a high quality probiotics daily

Drink warm liquids

Consume plenty of vitamin C-rich RAW foods


Stay hydrated (START YOU DAY WITH 8OZ WATER AND FRESH LEMON, JUMP START YOUR LIVER! Also this will help Alkaline your bodies PH balance)

Do not wear shoes in the home (VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP GERMS AT BAY!)

Change clothes when you get home (Great habit to get use too)

Create a Homemade holistic essential oil mist. (*Great gift idea).
Many Studies show that many essential oils are very effective against bacteria, viruses, and even mold.
Email and let me know what your favorite oils are.

Mix 10-15 drops essential oil “therapeutic grade" (I highly suggest the known-antiseptic essential oils listed below.)
1 cup purified or distilled water
1/4 cup Everclear (grain alcohol)

Combine ALL ingredients in a cool GLASS spray bottle; shake, shake, shake and spray away, girls..

I spray my home TWICE A DAY. The Essential oils I use are Lemon, Eucalyptus Geranium oil, Grapefruit seed or Tea Tree oil. These essential oils are proven to have anti-bacterial properties. This is a good idea if you are concerned about Swine Flu and want to add natural amazing scent to your home. ...Try making this AWESOME homemade essential oil mist — You will be glad you did, my loves…This holistic approach is proven to work in the fight against germs, and WILL NOT pose the health dangers like many conventional store bought disinfectants. Please do your part to get TOXIC CONVENTIONAL STORE BRAND DISINFECTANTS out of YOUR home, especially FOR THE health and safely of children and the elderly. I don’t even allow chlorine bleach & harsh chemical cleaners in my home – haven’t for years.

Avoid crowded places

Have a fantastic weekend! Green Healthy Blessings!!!
