It’s hard to believe that it has been a couple of years since my journey to finding natural products began.  When I first thought about changing to a more natural lifestyle, I felt anxious!!


My mind automatically went spiraling about where to find quality products, how much work it would be to make everything and just how to do it all with little kids at home.  I didn’t know the first thing about what went well together or what ingredients would be healthy for my family.  


I took a step back, and chose to go on my journey slowly.  I wanted to find the right things for my family and for myself. I decided that I would choose one thing and focus on that, and then when that felt right I would choose the next area to work on. 


I began my journey with oral health!!  The first thing I tried was making homemade tooth powder.  I opted to try the tooth powder because I had so many of the ingredients, and I knew that it was truly all natural (because I was mixing it up).  


I made and used this for probably 2 years, and it really made my mouth feel great. I felt clean and fresh for such a long time after brushing my teeth.  


But it was SUPER messy!!  My sink was always filled with powder and it just seemed to get everywhere.  


It was the messiness that led me towards finding something else.  I started using Thieves dental care from Young Living. I had used Young Living essential oils, but I had not tried any other products.  When I was visiting my mom, I used her toothpaste to try it out.


I loved how it made my mouth feel!!

 

WOW!!


I use both the toothpaste and dental floss and love them both!! Now, I know I can have a great plant based toothpaste and dental floss without the mess of the tooth powder.  I also know that the ingredients are clean so I can feel good about using them in my mouth.  


I also wanted to start using a mouthwash that was really clean and free from harsh chemicals.  I decided to try making my own before buying any.  


It was so easy!  


I always make my own mouthwash, and all I use is filtered water and Vitality essential oils.  I usually just use Peppermint Vitality, but sometimes I will put a drop or 2 of Thieves Vitality for an extra clean feeling.  I like the cinnamon flavor that it adds.  


Since I have changed my dental routine, my check-ups continue to be great.  My mouth feels great and I am so happy that I can drink OJ right after brushing my teeth if I go to brunch with the family!!

Meet Sarah Sik

 

For so long, I was filled with anxiety.  My emotions were all over the place.  


I am a military wife and mom of two boys. 


Always needing to be braced for change filled me with so much stress and overwhelm.  My thoughts and feelings were running wild.  I felt like I was always fighting an uphill battle, and never gaining any traction.  


Then, something magical happened and things started to change.


It was like walking into the most beautiful forest and seeing the sun shining down brightly on my face as I peeked up at the sky. 


Suddenly, I started to take control and things just became clearer.   


Have you ever tried to make a change in your life, only to get a week into it and say, “I’m tired, it can wait until tomorrow.”  Only tomorrow never happens!!  Then you end up feeling guilty and down in the dumps.  


It’s time for you to step up and make some changes so you can live your most exquisite life.


Come join our chic community and learn about finding balance in the chaos.  This is the supportive group you’ve been looking for.  Best of all...It’s Free!
