Let's talk SWAP....(shampoo)
People...its time to get SERIOUS about swapping out the bad stuff for the good stuff.
Time to let companies know that we are no longer going to SETTLE for them putting crud in our stuff and causing health issues in ourselves and our family.
Let start one step at a time, and get rid of the yuck....
Its Let's Talk SWAP Tuesday.......

Seriously.
I love smoothies.

As the last year has slowly ticked by and I find my body can react to things with little warning (thank you very much MCAS)...I love finding recipes for smoothies that my body can  break down and use.

This was one of them and you can read about it on Instagram if you want.
Just click the picture for the recipe. 


But I have another one I totally love too---and you are getting SUCH good stuff into your body
 when you make it.

We are ALL so deficient in nutrients and important nutrition...
and when you can wrap it up in a great big Nut butter and Chocolate bow, 
of COURSE it is going to taste amazing.



(can't use the peanut butter? We sub out with Justin's Maple Almond Butter all the time!)
Let me know when you have tried it!

Doing Elderberry Syrup the Naturally Healthy Mamma way--with Essential Oils!

Doing Elderberry Syrup the Naturally  Healthy Mamma way--with Essential Oils!
Every fall, as the leaves begin to lazily drift from the trees, and the colder winds start to blow....
this family gets buy making our annual batch of elderberry syrup.

We make it OUR way though...with lots of elderberry goodness...and lots of essential oil yumminess to help boost its efficacy.







Here is our recipe: we triple this to fill our 3 empty glass honey jars, and keep them in the fridge through the winter months.


For our kids, they get a small tsp a day. For anyone over 12 they get a Tablespoon a day.

You can read more about how effective elderberries are and WHY so many families turn to this instead of many other options during the cold months. Here is just ONE article of many that are available.

This is what our company has to say about the oils we put into our syrup:






Enjoy it. Use it. Support your family's health naturally. <3

Blessings,
Heather <3

Welcome to my Blog and Website!

 

Welcome, welcome, welcome!!!

Whether you found me by a business card, a conversation we had, or simply a link, I wanted to welcome you to our "happy place"...the place where you can learn MORE about our crazy fun family, the Young Living products we use, participate in classes we teach, or even read my blog posts!

I have become a "Mom on a mission" since my oldest daughter struggled with maintaining basic immune health years ago, and we began using MANY natural alternatives to support her in every possible way. It has been a long journey, one with lots of learning curves, amazing friends who have been made along the way, and above all, incredible success we never thought was possible...our child going from a literal "child in a bubble" to living a normal life due to non-toxic living!

SEVEN AMAZING years later after using Young Living products as our first go-to, I am blessed to see our oldest child (and my Littles) doing better and better every day. And THAT is why we share our story all over the nation...because if I can speak to the heart of ONE MORE SET OF PARENTS where we WERE a few years ago...then I have succeeded in helping someone else out. 




It was one of those experiences that I just can not keep silent about, and my mission became to tell other parents about our story.

My sweet spot in life has to become a mom who ENCOURAGES, EDUCATES and EMPOWERS other families to start in the right direction . I love what I do, and I am passionate about making sure other people can have the same opportunity we did.

I f you are here, you are in the right place. All the rhyme, all the reason, no coincidence.
Let me encourage you to head over to the blog portion of this site and read about our family, the things I teach on using Essential oils and Essential oil infused products straight from Young Living:
...or check out our site where you can browse and order that specific oil you know you want.

One of my other hats I proudly wear is being  blessed to be the leader to a dynamic and education-focused team called the SHINE team! Over 500 people strong, we host weekly online classes available to anyone on or off Facebook, have tons of available static education campaigns, text programs on various subjects, run our own Youtube channel, and have fun doing all of it together! What does all that jazz mean? It means we are all over the world, you can join us in your favorite PJ's, and learn right along with us on absolutely everything...right from here. :D

When you purchase a single oil, read a blog post, or become a member like so many of us, you don't just get those few things.

You. Get. Me. 

And believe me, I will be passionate about helping you discover what you need, how to use it, and how to help yourself and your family.

May you enjoy browsing through the many facets of this site, and feel free to message me with questions!

Our motto is: Educate. Encourage. and Empower.....let us do that with you as well. :D

Blessings to you and yours

~Heather Estey and Family
