Our Favorite Non-Toxic Products

About This Episode Our physical health and learning how to take care of our bodies have played a large role in our growth over the years. Early in their marriage, Aaron and Jennifer Smith lived with painful intimacy for four and a half years before discovering what they believe was a major contributor: parabens in the face wash Jennifer was using. When they began replacing toxic products with non-toxic ones, they found healing in the area of intimacy almost immediately. Since so many people have asked what they use now, they share a little of their journey and the products they love, while being careful not to let healthy living become an idol.
