I can boost the health of my houseplants too!

I don’t have a lot of houseplants but the few I have start to get a little faded in the Seattle winter. Here’s a tip I found to naturally boost your houseplants.


**Mix 2 Tablespoons of dry oatmeal into each plant’s soil. 


Oatmeal contains minerals like iron and phosphorous that nourish plants and help them thrive. It says to repeat it monthly to keep them green and healthy.  You can also add a few drops of essential oils such as Citronella, Lavandin, Lemongrass, Myrtle, Rosemary, or Tea Tree. I use a blend that has all of these called Purification.  Great in a fresh bouquet of flowers to keep them lasting longer.

How I Got Here

 
HOMETOWN:  Kent, WA and Gold Canyon, AZ

After 30+ years in healthcare, I felt like a hypocriteI knew better. I was overweight. I was not active, at all. I was having more and more pain and I was having fairly extreme mood swings (Getting older is great, right?). I just wasn’t doing the things I had enjoyed in the past. And getting older really frightened me. 

 

About that time, I was introduced to a new way of thinking. In my heart I knew that we have a lot of influence in our health and how we feel. I just wasn’t acting on it. I began to look at the lifestyle I was living. I became more aware of the natural alternatives including what I ate, products I used, and what I was “treating” myself with. We started switching out the old for the  new and more natural.

 

It’s been a process but it has been a game changer for us. I feel back in control of my health, physically and mentally. I realize I have the option of turning to a natural choice first, whether it is for cleaning, laundry, personal care, health support, or even skin care.  The feeling of "I've got this" when I look at my stash of natural products.  My husband and I have been able to eliminate almost all of the toxic chemicals in our home.  I still fully believe there is a place for conventional medicine and of course we still need many of the products on the market.  But it just makes sense to me to try something more natural first. It’s hard to quantify feeling better all the way around.  But it’s true….we do.

 

So are you ready to take ownership of your health? I can promise you it is empowering and can be a game changer for you as well.  I’m convinced that it’s never too late.  Let’s do this. And let’s do it together!
