Home Remedies for Seasonal Allergies
With spring springing upon us, sunshine is not the only thing in the air. Pollen counts are up along with other natural allergens within our daily surroundings. Unfortunately, if you're like me, that means this is the time of year, you start feeling miserable. Your eyes start to swell up and itch like crazy, your nose won't stop running, you are sneezing every five minutes, your throat is scratchy, and you are ready to punch out your eardrums because of the itching. To make matters worse, the few lucky people that are not suffering from seasonal allergies start asking you why you are crying. "No, I'm not crying, I just can't breathe!" Although, sometimes this season does make me want to cry. Over the last several years, I have tried several allergy remedies that no longer make me want to run and cry, but instead make me feel brave enough to take on the outside world.

The Release Is What I Live For!
I have always enjoyed a good detox. In my opinion, the after-effects of a good detox always outweighed the suffering of going through it. If you do a raw food detox, your hunger pains can drive you crazy. And those less committed to the detox process will always knuckle under at that point. A juice detox is for the much more committed. And the hardcore detoxers will do something like the Master Cleanse. I could only do that for three days max before I get too light-headed.

Citronella Essential Oil
One of my favorite products is essential oils. I have been using them in various different ways for a few years now, mainly topically and inhaling the scents as aromatherapy. I also diffuse them, add them to beauty products, and dilute them to create a two in one air freshener and organic surface cleaner.

The Effects of Long-term Stress on Adolescents
Let's start off by stating what is stress. Stress is a physical, chemical, or emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension. Stress is your body's way of responding to any kind of demand. It can be caused by both good and bad experiences. When people feel stressed by something going on around them, their bodies react by releasing chemicals into the blood.

Three Oil Discussion
Starting at the beginning of the alphabet, I will start by talking about Copaiba, DiGize, and Frankincense. Each of these has their own strengths that benefit the body in different ways. They may be singles or they may be blends, but each has ways to help the body be better. Note: I am not a doctor. These oils have not been approved as medicine by the FDA.
