Commandment 3: She Goes Bare

Hi Mommas!! I hope you don't mind but I'm just going to jump right in!!

This next commandment came naturally after buckling down on the toxins that I, as a Pre-Pregnancy Momma, wouldn’t allow in my body. The fact is that in today’s world, our bodies are constantly bombarded with foreign substances…..

Kay, wait…let me just break this down because I feel like it could start sounding like a lecture real quick. The way I see it, there are tons of things in the world that we live in that hurt us. Some things we don’t have control over – the air we breathe or damage from cell phones & electromagnetic fields; We just have to believe in our body’s ability to cleanse those poisons out of our system on a daily basis. However, some toxins we do have a say of whether or not they make their way into our body – the food we eat and what we put on our skin – so why not give our body a break instead of overwhelming it. If I can cut out some of the dangers entering my body, then not only do I become more efficient at eliminating the toxins that can’t be helped, but I also have enough energy and strength left over to heal, to protect, and to live more vibrantly.

Make sense?

If your body isn’t so consumed with detoxifying all the time, then it can use that energy to strengthen your immune system, preserve your gorgeous, youthful skin, even heal long term damage AND get prepared for baby!!

 

So after putting my foot down on what I will allow past my lips I began looking at what I put on my skin. I started to go Bare…and this is the process where I really felt myself grow spiritually. I mean it’s through this transition that I really felt my already hippie-self go super granola…

Starting Again & Commandment 2: Get the Poison Out (of My Food)

I’m baaaaaackk!!!!!  Yes, as you can tell I took quite the hiatus after setting up the Pre-Pregnancy Momma and writing my first post. I had begun motivated and with such enthusiasm, which abruptly turned into a bit of a slump. That slump then turned into embarrassment that I had not followed through with something that I so whole-heartedly believe in. Well, life happens, and the important part is picking yourself back up, digging yourself out of the slump – don’t brush that dirt off because a little dirt can be good for you - and starting again.  That’s what I told myself and that’s what I’m doing; learning a lot about following through and self-motivation along the way!

So what a way to return to writing…I mean just look at the sky view from my backyard!

No not the backyard itself…
It needs a lot of work and no matter how much I weed they keep coming back!! 

This weekend we will hopefully get it under control and plant the garden (I miss the tower garden and I want one of my very own!!).  But anyway the day is gorgeous and I’m getting’ my tan on from the yummy sunlight!!!! 
**note by the time I’m posting this the garden is planted just in time before the rain…for the next week!! Anyway the yards looking better, just need to get the mulch spread ;)

Back to the point…the long awaited Second commandment of the Pre-Pregnancy Momma…drumroll please…I will get the Poison Out (of my food).
