bad hippie adventures

When the Universe works with you & you actually listen. I don't pretend to have all the answers or have any idea what happens in the great beyond. We hear stories of angels or whispers in the dark and I know I have seen several of my pets staring at nothing in the air and I am quite sure they see something that I don't.Some call them guardian angels, ghosts, spirits, celestial beings, devas, and many other names. I call them G'ma & Mom.No matter what you believe or don't believe. All life is made up of energy and in...

Sometimes the hardest thing for me to do is find a title. Putting words on paper isn't too bad, but finding a fleeting thought or a moment to share and what to call it, now that can be a real pain in the ass.I own and run two businesses.Two very different businesses.One is Direct Sales and I love it.

Of course we also coach, mentor, sell, and...

It seems contrary that using charcoal and clay can help get you clean, but both have amazing properties that you can take advantage of daily. These amazing benefits are exactly why we use this combo in our clay ninja soap. All of our castile soaps have the exact same base...olive oil, coconut oil, canola oil, distilled water, lye, & stearic acid.  That's it....

Going back to the beginnings again. Lately I have been talking about the evolution of our company and how we came to be. Yep it all started with the laundry detergent, it then evolved into not wanting to pay high store prices for natural soaps. So soaping commenced (am I the only one that thinks the word commenced should mean end instead of begin? Like prohibit. Pro=for, so why does prohibit mean no?).We started small since it was just for us. We used bread pans for molds or whatever we could find and we lost sooooooo much essential oil by burning...
