Make drinking water and staying hydrated a bit more frivolous and fun!

See photos and comments below ..🫶🏻


Make yourself an iced herbal drink and detox your brain.

 Algorithm and social media can absolutely wreak havoc with your mood, drain your motivation, affect your outlook, cause anxiety and suck you down the rabbit hole.
Scrolling through your pages can be a sensory overload, an information overload, cause focus and memory issues as well as emotional exhaustion.

ONL depends on Facebook and it is our own information highway for all of our holistic and natural loving clients but there is a difference.

Social media can cause cyber bullying, addiction, decreased productivity, reduce face-to-face interaction and exposure to misinformation.
Anybody can basically post what they want with a very high number of people monetizing pages for a living and creating Clickbait to entice you. ( good or bad)
Many of us go on social to find an answer to a question but end up with 10 more questions 🤪

Take control of your algorithm for it to be more positive and beneficial for you. 🥰

Take the time to adjust content preferences on Facebook .
 Unfollow, hide or block any and all negativity.
Use “favorites“ and add some fun positive pages which tells the algorithm to prioritize your content over their suggestions.
Interact with positivity. Every time you like, comment and share.. This will signal Facebook with what you want to see more of .
( so don’t like a post showing a dog pooping . )🤣
Limit your news channels.
Join supportive groups.
If you’re trolling and see an ad you don’t like, stop and block it. Every time you scroll past or even hover for a millisecond it will keep adding more to your Feed.👹

Making these small intentional changes can gradually transform your Facebook and other social media experiences into one that is more positive and inspiring.🫶🏻

What’s on my personal feed?
Seaglass hunters, fossils, fossil hunters, gardening, plants, horses, stand-up comedy, beekeeping, ❤️local small businesses❤️, mikes weather page, omgwicks only in Florida, peace river, nicks edibles, farmers markets and beach stuff. The rest is a very limited small circle of friends. ❤️
I absolutely take time away from social media after hours and on my days off. It is absolutely liberating! Lol. 
BUT IF I take to much time off, then I lose my rhythm with the algorithm both on my personal and business page.
Sometimes I have to search my fun groups that I follow for them to get back into my feed again to give me fun things to see.🤷🏼‍♀️







Every bathroom needs a few essential toilet trees!🤣

Big wave of all purpose cleaner orders!

I guess y’all are just now getting to cleaning up from the recent holiday lol 🤣

For those of you that have those reusable pad quick mops… I am one of them… This is an awesome cleaner to spray your tile, vinyl or wood floor for a quick clean without rinsing.

 I will also do a fine mist on a microfiber towel to just do a quick dust n wipe around the house…wood, marble..just about any surface.
I love doing this when I’m cleaning the ceiling fans because then the dust doesn’t fall on you and really clings to the microfiber towel with the spray.

The peppermint all-purpose cleaner is sold out at the moment and will be restocked soon but we have a few more still available.

Your face might be telling you something!

If you’re finding that your delicate skin on your face and neck is having some struggles recently with the high heat and that weird Sahara dust thingy… I highly recommend using our face mist.
You can use it multiple times during the day, under makeup, over makeup, morning wake up, work day refresh or nighttime routine.

On my porch, in the shade.

That’s insane 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

New deodorant!

I am just addicted to the elderflower and it all started when we had that freeze.
I harvested like crazy and the scent was hypnotic 🤪

It started with the elderflower bar soap…and then the room spray.. and then the candles…🫣

I created an elderflower deodorant 2 months ago and have been using it during the craziest heat wave the entire time.

The extreme heat that we’ve been experiencing is the perfect storm to really test its limits and it passed 100%!

It’s a gorgeous feminine floral that is soft and delicate, but with big biceps! Lol 

Available now on the website and I will have the smaller sizes available hopefully by tomorrow.💋

Gout flare ups

Gout is more common than you think and it’s extremely painful, you can’t wear shoes and can hardly walk.

Men are three times more susceptible to gout, and it usually develops around middle age.
Women can develop gout after menopause because the estrogen helps to eliminate uric acid.

Gout can be caused by excessive alcohol, obesity, kidney issues, lifestyle, and medication’s.
Sugary foods and drinks, and especially with fructose and high fructose corn syrup are strongly linked to elevated uric acid levels.
Eating a meat based diet can also cause high levels of uric acid. ( aka carnivore diet )
Uric acid is a waste product that is created when the body breaks down purines. Your kidneys job is to eliminate the uric acid.
Of course, when you go to the doctors office, they’re gonna want to put you on a prescription medication for gout or recommend that you take a steroid or an anti-inflammatory.

Do NOT take aspirin if you have gout as it actually causes uric acid retention and will make the gout worse.
Do NOT do a warm/hot water foot soak.

At home relief would be ice, rest, elevation, and to hydrate heavily.

Holistic relief would be using Palo Azul tea, dandelion tincture, milk thistle tincture and a topical foot spray to give pain relief.

Staying well hydrated during a gout attack is crucial!
Make it your mission to drink fluids more than usual.
* lemon water
* unsweetened tart cherry juice
* herbal teas such as sencha green tea, hibiscus and chamomile can help fight inflammation and flush the uric acid.
*palo azul tea is HUGE and will make a difference.
