Healthy Home

Healthy home living can be easy as paying attention to what products you are using in your home. Learning how to make your own cleaning products will make sure that you know what is going into your home. Going green and living naturally can be as simple as using whole foods, natural products and remedies, and being active. If you can not find natural alternatives to products, you can make your own. From making your own cough drops, to your own beauty products, to even being able to put essential oils to work for you. Essential oils and baking soda are great resources to have at your disposal because of their versatility when it comes to their use in the home. In fact, using baking soda, vinegar and essential oil, you can make your own standard household cleaner that works just as great as store brand. Making your own laundry detergent from baking soda is not only easy but affordable as well and it insures that you know what is affecting your body.
