Feeling overwhelmed?
Let’s start here.
If you’re reading this, you’re probably interested in nurturing your child or children in the most natural, non-toxic way. But getting there is extremely overwhelming.
The internet is both a blessing and a curse to parenthood—endless resources are at our fingertips, but sorting through all the information is more than a full-time job. That’s where this website comes in. I’m not a medical professional or an early childhood expert, but I have spent countless hours poring over resources that are available. I’ve picked the ones that make the most sense to me, and I want to share them with you.
Where you can start
01 — Choose relevant priorities
While I truly believe that everyone can benefit from every aspect of this site, it’s just not practical to tackle it all at once. Pick the topics most relevant to your stage of life, and start there.
02 — Pick 1-2 goals at a time
While you might be really motivated to try to implement everything all at once, realistically you’re setting yourself up for burnout. Choose one or two things to focus on, get really comfortable with those, then continue adding more. Set yourself up for success by not committing to too much.
03 — Don’t be afraid to change it up
Have you tried one of my recommendations and it’s just not working? That’s ok! That does not mean you’re doing it wrong or are incapable. It likely just means it’s not the right choice for you and your family. Keep in mind that every family and every individual in that family is different, so what has worked for my family may not work for yours.
04 — Remember baby steps count
When you start focusing on natural living, it’s easy to get caught up in an all-or-nothing approach. Sometimes we zoom in on one area of our life where we aren’t doing everything quite right, and we forget all the other natural choices we’ve already made and their cumulative positive effect on our health and families. Remember, we live practically natural—not 100% natural 100% of the time.
