A2 essentials

Our goal for a2essentials is to provide health and wellness information that can help to reduce the toxic burden for yourself, your family, your home, and the environment. We do this by sharing information in four main categories: plant-based whole foods diet, non-toxic personal care and home products, essential oils, and exercise. We have been vegan since 2009 when we read Colleen Patrick-Goudreau's "30-day Vegan Challenge". From there we were basically hooked! Our bodies felt so much better and it was so good to not feel sick after eating food! Recently we've read a few books that have broadened our views of a plant-based whole foods diet by reducing our sugar intake and reducing our intake of processed foods. This is all a process and we do our best! We'd love to share what we've learned and when we cook up something delicious!!! Two years after becoming vegan, we began to think about what we put, not just IN our bodies, but ON our bodies. We learned some startling facts and immediately began to make changes in our home. We learned how to read product labels and decided to become consultants for a company that educates in addition to producing a full line of non-toxic products. We'll be sharing educational tidbits here as well as the monthly specials from PUREhaven essentials. Our website is here: www.PureHavenEssentials.com/arios

Our journey continued when we were introduced to essential oils. At first, we tried a few of the basics: peppermint, frankincense, and a couple of unique blends. We decided to learn more! (We're teachers...we're always learning!) We attended a class nearby and decided it was best to join DoTerra as wellness advocates. We'll be sharing some information here about the benefits of essential oils and how they can be used in your home. If you'd like more information about DoTerra, please send us a message so that we can help you find what you need! Analisse is a former member of the Bolivian National Soccer Team and played in college at Connecticut College. She is currently developing her skills around strength and conditioning and is looking forward to coaching in the future. Keep your eyes out for some workout tips from her! We are also aspiring vegan chefs! We'd love to share as we learn more and look forward to a more formal way of sharing with our local community some time in the future. Thanks for getting to know us!! We look forward to sharing with you. Please feel free to like, comment and message us with any suggestions or questions you may have! We're looking forward to getting to know all of you!!!
