Bringing Balance to Your Being

Last week I had the pleasure of stopping by WCIU again to discuss a topic that I find entertaining and silly – wild natural celebrity remedies! Typically I’m on there to give more structured demos and how-to’s, but it’s always nice to mix it up a bit and have fun with our health (we …
I am a sucker for trying everything natural. Everything from activated charcoal for white teeth to apple cider vinegar for bloating. It’s safe to say natural remedies is one of my obsessions. So! When I got a sunburn recently (I know, I’m bad) and found aloe vera leaf at the grocery store I stocked up on five …
Balanced Babe on WCIU – You & Me This Morning It’s here! Warm weather f-i-n-a-l-l-y. That means shorts, summer dresses, bikinis, and rooftop fun.
