Welcome to my natural beauty blog
Aloha! Welcome to my natural beauty blog, a place you can come to for honest reviews, for learning and discussing natural beauty and holistic health. Most know me as Miya. My husband Dave and I have been married since 1994, we live on the beautiful island of Oahu and have 2 boys. Both boys are now adults, I still don’t know where the time went. My oldest son Thomas, he never complains he’s a hard worker and he loves coffee. He loves coffee so much, that he became a barista, and now he is a coffee roaster and buyer. Dave and I are so proud of him.
My youngest son Brandon, we couldn’t be more prouder of him, he has never let anything get in his way to be the best he can be. Brandon has always had it tough since he was toddler. He was born almost completely deaf. School was difficult, as you can just imagine not being able to hear the teachers and friends around him. He graduated with his class in 2013. Shortly thereafter we found out he’s gluten and lactose intolerant. As if all that wasn’t challenging enough for Brandon, just by chance we found out he also has an iron overload intolerance, a blood disorder called haemochromatosis, soon after we learned his amalgam fillings was possibly poisoning him. What a mess!
He is now amalgam free and we continue to detox regularly. Passion for Natural Health and Beauty, I’ve always had a passion for healthy living, but now we had to seriously change our lifestyle. It was and still is a challenge for Brandon and we all had to adjust together as a family. What I’ve learned along the way is eye-opening, and that’s what I want to share with you. Here you’ll find what I learned though our journey, I’ll share with you safer, cleaner, alternative beauty tips, nutritious GF and lactose free recipes, bio hacking tips and tricks, cleaner lifestyle habits, detoxing, healthy travel tips and hacks, plus much, much more.
Please note that I blog about natural beauty products and they are not always organic. I focus on products that I use, have tried and/or have heard great things about. Further, I write about wellness and lifestyle to help enhance your natural beauty. I’m a firm believer that true beauty starts from the inside. For this reason I’ll also include recipes that are filled with beauty enhancing nutrients, as well as other health and well-being tips. I’m looking forward to the beautiful journey we’re about to take together.
