Life As A Conscious Mom

My body has a pattern. If I get a cold with nasal congestion, it eventually moves to my chest and becomes a croupy cough. For several years now I have been using a homeopthic product for Caidin called Children’s Chestal. It has always seemed to help him when he gets congested. Recently, I got one…

I am in India. I haven’t been away from Caidin for longer than a school day since he was two years old. As I sat on the plane, sometime around 3AM, I started to feel it. That tugging that you get when you miss someone. I was missing Caidin. It was interesting to note because…

Over the last week there have been a few occasions where I’ve noticed that any fear Caidin has, formulates around uncertainty.

This is one herb that I always have on hand. For me, it is the most powerful topical healing herb I have met. 12 years ago, I came up with a salve recipe that included Comfrey. I made up my first batch and when a friend stopped by to visit, I noticed he had a…

Yesterday, it was a beautiful day and toward the end of it, we had that amazing sunlight that is so much a part of late Fall days. It was casting a warm glow on everything, especially Caidin, as with my lens, I caught him up in a tree. The photos were so beautiful, I had to…
