Essential Oils for Labour & Childbirth

June 3, 2019 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

  My journey with essential oils began back in 2016 when I was trying to recover from the postpartum arthritis flare-up I was in since having my son. I’d been in remission for a long time so navigating myself through a flare-up, now also with baby in tow, and with all the challenges that come…

How ‘Bounded Rationality’ Is Being Used To Manipulate Us Into Vaccinating

March 11, 2019 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

A good friend of mine, a conscious parenting mum of three who also happens to be an Oxford-educated lawyer (information I feel I have to share for fear that the perception is that all us ‘crunchy mums’ are residing in a cave in the Himalayas chanting into the mountains and doing yoga with goats–not that…

Flu-Busting Elderberry Gummies

September 13, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Influenza is a virus that, with an adequately supported immune system, will, at worst, leave us feeling pretty crappy for a few days, we may even experience a fever – heaven forbid! – but, assuming we don’t suppress it with fever-reducing medications and…

Homemade Vitamin Gummies

August 15, 2018 by theorganicspoon 2 Comments

I often get asked what supplements I give my son and how I keep him healthy the natural way. People often ask if I give him a multi-vitamin. Hell. No. Multi-vitamins (for children and adults) are usually made using synthetic hormones and ‘vitamins’, in a very non-bioavailable source, not to mention all the additives and…
