The Healing Sprig

Here at The Healing Sprig I try to do all I can to recommend products that deliver not only in price but in quality. One product that I love and recommend because it really has changed my life is Dr. Berg's Gallbladder Formula! I wanted to add this brief review on Dr. Berg's products because I had my gallbladder removed in 2017, and I went through a rough experience. My recovery was complicated, which created a domino effect of problems with my digestion and metabolism. I started to do research on how to heal my digestive system.    A friend of mine shared a book with me, published by Dr. Berg called Dr. Berg's New Body Type Guide , which I read and loved!   Click here for the book     It helped me to understand our delicate, but resilient digestive system. It also helped guide me on the foods I should be eating for my body type. (I am not being paid to promote for Dr. Berg on any of his products or videos)    I went further into my research...

It's that time again...new product for review!  So here goes another "TMI" for the books.  I am here to talk about  The Luxe Bidet.  I came across my first bidet when I traveled through Europe (read about:  Why Most Americans Don't Own a Bidet  here). They are quite common there. Most households have them. It's the norm.  It is a very well known fact that using a bidet is more hygienic than using toilet paper. We have been using this product in our household for a while now. I finally convinced my husband to get one and guess what, he loves it!  I can truly say he has a gratifying walk when he leaves the toilet, lol. Not only because he successfully installed it, but he now "feels" the benefits. I know TMI again...I can't believe this actually came full circle (feel free to fill in your puns in this whole post, lol).  But again, I feel this is something that needs to be talked about for several reasons. One: savings, two: hygiene health, and ...

I have always been a big animal lover. I grew up with dogs, birds, turtles, and an iguana. I never had a cat growing up because my dad didn't like them.  Later in time I found out he had a bad experience as a child with a cat. He tried to play with the cat like it was a dog and things didn't go well (the cat attacked him). Ever since I can remember we were not allowed to bring a cat home. I do have to add that I was allergic to them too. When I was single I really didn't have time to take care of a pet because I traveled and worked a lot. I could never subject a little furry creature to neglect, so I chose to put a pause on the pet ownership for the time being. When I got married my husband fortunately was an animal lover like me.  He too grew up with pets, mostly cats.  I knew deep down he missed that.  I mentioned to him that I really wanted a pet for our home.  So we both agreed that it would be totally manageable to have one.  Adopting a pet meant ser...
