Day 4: Oil Pulling

I'm currently swishing 2 teaspoons of coconut oil in my mouth. It's hard to believe its only been 8 minutes. I'm feverishly trying to find things to occupy my mind in hopes of reaching my 15 minutes goal. Look! Only 6 more minutes.  Although I don't mind the act of oil pulling the amount of time it needs to be done for is exhausting and I've never even done it for the full 20 minutes!

I have 4 little ones, a 20 minute morning routine doesn't exist in my world. Most days Im lucky to be dressed, teeth brushed and hair brushed before my husband walks in the door at 4 pm! But, I  really believe both my son and I could benefit from this practice so Im making an extra effort to find the time. Only 1 more minute! Hey. I might go for the full 20 minutes. This is much easier done while distracted. 

Today I am going to call the dentist to set up an appointment bc I haven't had a chance yet. Here's to hoping he doesn't think I'm a nut for wanting my 7 year old to oil pull!
