7 Essentials for Holistic Living 

I recently shared my Holistic Lifestyle Starter Pack on Instagram. Today I'm breaking down how making simple swaps and incorporating healthy habits have changed my life for the better. 

Oil Pulling 

Oil pulling is a simple practice with huge benefits! All you do is put a tablespoon or so of this oil in your mouth and swish it around. Continue for five to twenty minutes each day to reap the full benefits. 

Benefits of Oil Pulling: 

  • Reduces tooth sensitivity 

  • Kills bacteria

  • Freshens breath

  • Fights inflammation

  • Can help prevent cavities

  • Whitens teeth

  • Supports the immune system

Fluoride-free Toothpaste Bits 

I switched from traditional toothpaste to Bite's all-natural, sustainable toothpaste bits, and my teeth have never been healthier. My dentist and ortho always compliment my teeth and let me know how impressed they are!

"Crystal" deodorant 

If you're even a little bit crunchy, you've probably tried out natural deodorant. I have tried a LOT, and nothing works like crystal deodorant. No, it's not made of real crystals. It's a mineral salt stick made from potassium alum (not aluminum chloride). It takes away the B.O. without clogging pores or irritating your skin!

Low Tox Makeup 

Many makeup products are filled with potentially harmful toxins. People who wear makeup are exposed to more chemicals because makeup is applied directly to your delicate skin and can be absorbed into your bloodstream. 

I recommend scanning your makeup on an app like Think Dirty to see just how clean your makeup really is. Mad Hippie, Ilia, and Pacifica are a few great options to check out!

Diffusers 

Replacing paraffin wax candles is a must. Instead, I use diffusers as a low tox way to scent my home. Here are some of my favorites. 

High-quality Supplements 

Sometimes we need to supplement vital vitamins and minerals. I take night minerals daily for magnesium and calcium, which help promote sleep and wake up feeling refreshed and energized - this has been the most game-changing supplement for me. 

I also take a multiV made for vegans. Although I'm not 100% vegan - I still enjoy this multi. Lastly, I take a daily probiotic to promote a healthy gut!

Sunshine

And lastly, sunshine. It's simple, accessible, and makes a world of difference. It helps regulate your sleep cycles, boosts serotonin, fights depression, boosts your immune system, and more. And it's free! Get outside and enjoy - no code necessary.
