115. Where to Start with Natural Living, Cooking from Scratch, Holistic Health | Elizabeth Parsons of Purely Parsons

EPISODE SUMMARY It can be overwhelming to figure out where to start in your natural living journey. I get asked all the time, “Where should I start?” On today’s episode, I am talking to Elizabeth Parsons of Purely Parsons about this exact question. We have both been living a natural lifestyle for over a decade, and if there is anything we have learned, it’s that this is truly a process. It’s unrealistic to overhaul our entire way of life overnight, but there are so many small changes we can make gradually over time that will add up to a new lifestyle. I’m so grateful Elizabeth joined me for this conversation. As a homeschooling, homesteading mama of five and pediatric nurse, she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this topic. Whether you are just getting started or have been living this way for many years, I hope some of the information shared in this episode serves as the catalyst for you to take the next step in your natural living journey. In this episode, we cover: - Starting small by making easy swaps in your home - What resources we used to start learning and researching - The importance of whole foods in natural living - How we handle criticism from others about this lifestyle - Success stories of healing our bodies naturally, apart from allopathic medicine - What foods you can start making today in your home - The most important items in Elizabeth’s wellness toolbox RESOURCES MENTIONED Elizabeth’s birth affirmations Lisa’s sauerkraut blog post and video Lisa’s bone broth blog post and video Lisa’s milk kefir blog post Lisa’s yogurt blog post and video doTERRA Essential Oils Elizabeth’s DIY Elderberry Kits Earthley Wellness - Use code PURELY10 for 10% off Earthley Wellness Good Night Lotion (Magnesium Lotion) - Use code PURELY10 for 10% off Lisa’s mayonnaise blog post and video Leefy Prana Turmeric Supplement - Use code PARSONS15 for 15% off Elizabeth’s birth story on Happy Homebirth podcast: Apple or Spotify CONNECT Elizabeth Parsons of Purely Parsons | Website | Instagram
