People ask me often about what products I use. To help answer that questions, I’ve started gathering lists of what works for me here in this section. Currently I’m calling it “Recommended Products” – I’ll switch it in the future to “My Gear”.
Please remember:
- Each person is unique, and that means what works for me (or someone else) may not work for you.
- Understand your own wellness adventure as you try new things. Start small, making one change at a time.
- This section is in development. Expect it to change and receive additions over the next few months. I will also add articles explaining each of these items in greater detail.
Here’s to wonderful wellness adventures!

BOOKS
The Earth Prescription
Why I read this book – The author gets right to the point regarding the problem – which is our disconnection from the Earth. Then she explains what you can do to easily reconnect to the Earth including how that practice will help you. She lets you in on all the secrets of just how easy it is to reconnect. Many of the methods she suggests will cost you nothing to do. The author is a licensed medical doctor who has been using grounding for herself for more than a decade.
Earthing (2nd Edition)
I have both the first and second editions of this book. EARTHING explains in detail the history of how this modality was uncovered, summaries of science conducted to better understand and verify what is happening to the body when it is grounded, plus information on how to ground. It’s the “bible” of grounding. The science stuff is technical, but I believe with methodical re-reading, and supporting with information from other sources, most people can wrap their minds around how grounding works and why it benefits your body. EARTHING is authored by several writers – one of which is Marty Zucker. Marty was an AP reporter turned health book writer. He was a master of the craft of writing.

SKIN
Sea Salt Body Scrub from Morrocco Method
Washing the body with clays and salts feels amazing. I love this scrub and use it when skin is a little dry, once a week to exfoliate the face, on any skin that gets calloused, or just because I feel like it because it is that good. Perhaps my most favorite skin care product of all time.
Hydro Balm from Green Pasture
100% natural moisturizer for skin and lip. Animal fats like tallow and lard used to be commonly used for skin care. And they both work beautifully. This product uses tallow (rendered beef fat) combined with other animal fats. You will need to adjust to the smell.
Hair
Blood of the Dragon Styling Gel from Morrocco Method
A beautiful product. No toxic fragrances or ingredients and it works so well to guide and tame loose tresses.
Pure Boar Bristle Brush from Morrocco Method
Ditch brushes with plastic or other non-natural bristles and get yourself a 100% pure boar bristle brush. This link takes you to the small brush which is what I use. A larger brush is also available.
Scalp Massager from Morrocco Method
We’re told so often about caring for our skin – but I feel like no one ever mentions the skin on our scalp! This lovely scalp massager is very easy to use and I love the way it nourishes my scalp, exfoliates old skin cells, and stimulates the hair follicles.
Citrus Silk Conditioner Bar from Morrocco Method
How do I tell you in words about how amazing this conditioner bar is? The smell is heavenly and it is a true luxury for my hair. I hope you love it too!
Handcrafted Shampoo Bar from Morrocco Method
This 100% natural shampoo bar will change how you feel about what is best for cleaning your hair. I pair it with their conditioner bar.
Diamond Crystal Mist Conditioner and Moisturizer
This spray condition is one of my favorite products to use! Made with 100% natural ingredients. NO toxic chemicals of any kind and also NO fragrances. The ingredients are so beautiful, like quartz crystals, frankincense oil, and myrrh oil. For anyone with hair that is dry or going gray, you will probably love this conditioner. My hair has a lot of gray and I use this spray to calm my hair and moisturize the strands.
Shampoo Bar from Morrocco Method
The shampoo bar from Morrocco Method is one of four shampoo bars I’ve used during my hair wellness adventure (which I started in 2018). I use it because the ingredients are 100% natural and these bars don’t contain ANY of the ingredients that I have on my “don’t use” list. I also love that Morrocco Method provides gainful employment to people with disabilities.
Scalp Massager from Morrocco Method
I use the scalp massager for wellness care on my scalp that is similar to what I would do on the rest of my skin. Rubbing it in circles lightly on my head stimulates the circulation of the scalp, stimulates hair follicles (which leads to stronger, healthier hair, and regrowth). It’s also just plain enjoyable!
