Howdy! You know my camera is always full of random photos and I haven’t shared some of them on my blog for a while. We’re racing towards the end of the year and of course everything gets crazy busy. Well, if you read my blog post about Christmas you’ll know…

I don’t stress about Christmas
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by today. I’m not a Christmas stress-head. I don’t really even start to think about Christmas until about 10 days out (which means I have only just semi-thought of it so far!). Ha. I never see the need to get all in a flap about…
8 ways to stay positive when you’re sick
Sometimes the world gets rough. Sickness takes over and you feel down in the dumps. We’ve all been sick at some stage and usually it passes with a cold or a bug. But if you do have a long term illness or disease it’s a different challenge. I’ve had Crohn’s Disease…
Around here lately

When you feel like things aren’t going fast enough
I couldn’t put my finger on this feeling I’ve had for the past 2 weeks. I’ve felt a bit anxious, nauseous even, and my heart has been racing a few times. I just feel like I’m always in a rush – to nowhere actually. I feel like I need things…
Debunking myths and common thoughts on essential oils
If you’ve smelt flowers, an orange skin, a pine tree, then at some point you’ve already been exposed to an essential oil. Essential in terms of “essence” – the smell – not meaning “necessary”. I find myself being drawn to the benefits of nature’s medicine after many years of chronic…
