In today’s society, with the need for instant gratification and shopping at our fingertips, our lives are filled with things, tech gadgets, time wasters, and waste. There’s so much we can all use LESS of… so it was easy to take the “Say Yes to Less Pledge” with Little Remedies. The problem was narrowing it down to what I would pledge! Our family could use less sugar… less processed foods, for sure… less negativity…

I decided to pledge Say Yes to Less Distractions. I love that I have the opportunity to work from home and be here with my kids… but with that comes a lot of time “connected.” I work on the computer and if I’m not at my desk, I’m checking in on my phone. Or the iPad. I’m checking facebook, email, twitter, my calendar, the never-ending to-do list…

You can pledge by visiting the Say Yes to Less page and you can keep up your end of the deal by checking in daily! It’s a great way to stay motivated because as you check-in each day, you get rewards (like coupons) that get better the more you check in! And if you check in all 30 days? You’re entered to win the Grand Prize: a $2,500 529 Plan—an educational fund for a child you love!

As I chose to Say Yes to Less Distractions, I was offered a number of ways to accomplish that goal… turning off electronics at meal time, turning off phones during family time, etc. I need to work on all of them, but I decided this one was the biggest because of the nature of my work.

With every pledge, Little Remedies donates $1 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, with a minimum guaranteed contribution of $75,000 (wow!) up to a max of $100,000. You have until March 31, 2014 to pledge and spread the word! The donation for pledging is amazing by itself… but remember YOU can earn goodies by keeping up your pledge!

I checked in for my first day and already received a coupon for Little Remedies! You can also set it up to get reminders to check-in daily or weekly (or never). Here’s my little video clip explaining a bit more about why our family (and me specifically) wants to Say Yes to Less Distractions and how we got started!

Why Little Remedies? It’s also important to our family to watch the products we’re using–especially the ones for our kids that go IN their bodies or ON their skin. We aim for natural and safe. Little Remedies creates products to help your little ones feel better with no dyes, no artificial flavors, and no alcohol, ever.
