I have to admit, I was EXTREMELY skeptical of even going here on my all natural journey... I'm going to get a little personal here, I SWEAT! I have been using prescription strength deodorant and avoiding clothes that hug my underarms for as long as I can remember.. So when I thought natural deodorant, I had a fear of my co-workers and husband thinking I'd abandoned showers and this picture of my armpits dripping and people crying when I came around.

Alright, guys...so you came home from work today and your wife tells you she wants the both of you to go "all natural".  What about my pizza and buffalo wings and beer?!?!  Those were just a few of the thoughts that crossed my mind... So, when she presented this idea I thought to myself, "All natural....not this guy!!" 

With everything being grown year round in hot houses or shipped from another country verses organic farms, I never know if I'm getting good, fresh produce.

Here are some reasons why you should eat what is in season:

"Soaking in vitamin N [Nature] may also be the easiest mood lift ever: When people took hour-long walks in a park versus a mall, a stunning 90 percent of them reported higher self-esteem, and 71 percent said they felt less depressed, per research at the University of Essex in the U.K. (Nearly half the mall rats reported feeling worse about themselves and some felt depressed.)"

Unfortunately, the popular American beers contain ingredients that are harmful to your health. Miller Lite, Coors Lite, Bud Lite, Corona, and their originals (JUST TO NAME A FEW!) contain GMOs "genetically modified organisms".

Probably one of the things that I heard the most growing up. Between laying out in the sun and tanning in a tanning bed through my early college years, I was very happily tan. But I wish I would have listened... Not only does unprotected UV exposure cause premature aging (who wants wrinkles!?), but I did get cancer...

So a month before my bridal portraits and 3 months before my wedding, I started getting a weird RASH ALL OVER MY FACE!!! It was awful and literally covered my forehead, cheeks, nose..
