I wasn’t a committed homeschool mom from the second my first child was born. I did quite a bit of research because I wanted to learn more about how kids learn - and truly what kind of environments are not just best for learning ABCs but for overall health and development. I wasn’t even sure I would be a good teacher. After reading many books written by education “experts”, we landed on homeschool.
I really had to unravel quite a bit of what I thought was “school” before I could even begin. I went to the same private school K-12 and equated learning with perfect exam scores. As a student, I forgot a lot of what I crammed into my head because I wasn’t learning for the joy of it - I was learning to survive.
I have come to see how much a child learns through simply living - and being bored! They are innately attuned to art, nature, science, nutrition, play, language - if only we give them a chance. I have truly loved homeschooling my kids, especially all the time we get to spend together.
One lesson we re-learn daily is the importance of food as medicine. We take the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from Green Pasture for all the omega 3s and vitamins A/D/K. I used to get chronic cavities and it turned my dental exams from fillings to quick and easy visits. Use “ALISON” as your promo code at checkout for 10% off. https://greenpasture.org/
Sassy takes smaller bites now that she is 33 but she still has all her teeth! Sundae (our milk goat) only has teeth on the bottom jaw (normal for goats) so she typically loses the apple eating contest.
Speaking of teeth, I used to get cavities all the time. I was likely vitamin D deficient. But I may have been vitamin K deficient as well. Did you know that you need vitamin K2 to absorb vitamin D3 into your bones? I started taking the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts and my problem swiftly ended. That was 15 years ago but I still take it today. You get 10% off with promo code “ALISON” at check out. https://greenpasture.org/
Carla the miracle chicken was crafting up a storm this morning while also responsibly using the paper towel port-a-potty. We were using a diaper but her tail feathers got in the way.
We keep our brains curious and creative for craft time by ensuring we get enough Omega 3s as well as vitamins A, D & K. The fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts is a great food based source of the above, and ended my chronic cavity battle.

They say to “lift heavy” in your 40s. Nothing like 100 lbs hay bales and 50 lbs feed bags for a “functional fitness” workout.
I keep my bones strong at 45-years young with strength training and the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts. I used to battle chronic cavities and now get cavity-free check ups. It’s fermented instead of high heat processed like our ancestors made it.

Sharyl Attkisson, one of my favorite journalists who is still in mainstream media, is returning to my show tomorrow (Thursday). She recently released this video about cell towers, which caught my eye given my recent cell tower journey. Big thanks to a Local’s subscriber for alerting me to it. Any questions for Sharyl, please leave below in comments. We will be live at 12:30P ET.
Tell HHS to update their RF /EMF exposure limits. They’re taking public comment but time is running out. Send in your personal story or research you have done. The deadline is 11:59 PM TONIGHT Eastern time. I sent in a comment about my Cell Tower battle.
