Introducing My 🌿 Non-Tox Home 🌿 Guide

Over the years, I’ve been on a journey to learn to make all my essential home products from scratch. From cleaning products to shampoo, I’ve tried and altered many recipes to learn what works best for my lifestyle, and now I want to start sharing these recipes with you!

Today I’m sharing an easy, natural, and toxin-free homemade recipe for laundry detergent!
In this modern world, you are in constant contact with your clothes every day. And with your skin being your largest organ on your body that absorbs everything you put on it, how aware are you really of the chemicals being introduced to your body through your clothes?
So many people struggle with skin disorders (eczema, rashes, breakouts, etc), asthma, autoimmune conditions, and other sensitivities, and often the simplest solution is to switch the products you regularly use to more natural options.

Whether through the fabric of your clothes or the products you use to clean them, there are easy swaps you can make to ensure you and your family stay free from harmful products and chemicals on your skin.

🌿Dr. Cat's Non-Tox Laundry Detergent🌿
•1.5 cups of Soap Flakes
•3 cups of Washing Soda
•3 cups of Borax
•6 Tbsp of Epsom Salt
•Optional: 50 drops of essential oils (I like lavender and eucalyptus for a fresh scent)

Mix these ingredients together very well, and use 2 Tbsp for each load of laundry (add a little more for extra dirty loads). This recipe makes a half gallon of laundry detergent which will last you SO long, 64 loads to be exact! Be sure to store it in an airtight glass jar.

The combination of these ingredients act to clean, brighten, deodorize, and soften your clothes naturally!

As for your dryer sheets, try swapping them out for wool balls instead! The wool naturally reduces static cling. And you can add a few drops of essential oils to your wool balls to scent your clothes in the dryer 😊

*I’ve linked all the ingredients in my blog so you can start making your own laundry detergent that you and your family can feel 100% safe and healthy with*

Drop a comment if there’s anything you’d like to learn to make on your own! ⬇️

Xoxo,
Dr. Cat

✨WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR INITIAL ACUPUNCTURE CONSULTATION✨

Your initial consultation is an important part of your treatment path! This is the time where you and I are able to connect in person, get to know each other, and determine if and how acupuncture can help you.

Your initial consultation lasts 30 minutes. During that time, we’ll discuss your “why” for seeking treatment, we’ll review your health history, I’ll perform a Chinese medicine physical examination with you, and, of course, talk to you about acupuncture and answer your questions!

By the end of our time together, I’ll have enough information to put together a personalized treatment plan for you and get you feeling your best self!

I like to take the time to review everything you shared with me so I can really make sure I have a clear picture of what you are experiencing and what your goals are, so that I can curate the best plan of action for YOU. This is part of my commitment and dedication to getting you feeling better and thriving!

Still have questions about what to expect? Drop them below ⬇️ or send me a DM 📩!

✨Check out my blog on how to cycle track! ✨

There are 3 main ways of tracking your ovulatory cycle:
1. Basal Body Temperature
2. Cervical Mucus
3. Urine Testing

Cycle tracking not only gives you insight into when you ovulate each month, but also paints a picture of how certain symptoms may be aggravated during certain phases, due to hormonal fluctuations or imbalances. Knowing what phase of your cycle you are in helps you better understand your health!

Do you track your cycle? Which method(s) do you prefer?

Be sure to check out my blog for a thorough explanation of each method 😊

✨NEW BLOG ALERT✨

These are the 3 cycle tracking misunderstandings that I hear the most! My blog post titled “Cycle Tracking: 3 Common Myths” offers a detailed explanation of why these statements and incorrect, and how to better understand cycle tracking!

Myth #1: Most women only mark their bleed on their calendars or apps. When it comes to cycle tracking, you need to begin tracking your ovulation too! Knowing when or if you ovulate offers much greater insight into your cycle, your fertility, and other health concerns.

Myth #2: You can get pregnant one day of the month—your ovulation day! Because s***m can live up to 6 days in the right environment, there is technically a 6-day window prior to your ovulation that the s***m has the opportunity to meet the egg and hang out. This 7-day stretch that includes the 6 days prior to ovulation and your day of ovulation are known as your “fertile window”. This brings us back to myth #1 — you need to track ovulation!

Myth #3: If the only information you are entering into your period app are the days you bleed, you cannot know when you are ovulating and neither can your app. Ovulation is marked by multiple physiological shifts. Once you begin recording your temperature, cervical mucus, and LH levels, you will gain a clearer picture of your ovulation cycle, and so will your app!
