I am sorry but I live for an iced chai tea when I am a mom on the go and need my energy. My husband bought me a french press for Christmas and I started getting out of control with the coffee. I think it is part of the reason I wasn't coping well and started getting vertigo. Coffee is just not good for you. I have gone off and on it since I was 16 and worked at Callie's Cafe. I started drinking it since it was free and I was a tired high school student trying to work and do school at the same time.
My whole life I have always been in a hurry to do everything.
I also believe that is part of the problem with caffeine addiction and any other addiction really, is that we are pushing ourselves to do more than we should. I think that instead of accepting I can't do it all I will push even harder. But you guys, Caffeine withdrawals are no joke! I thought that they would only last a week or so with the headaches and the tiredness, but you could be fine for a couple days and then your body reminds you again that you are low on caffeine, and you must have it now or you won't get through your day.
Since I have been getting sicker I have more motivation to quit drinking it and I have not been drinking it on a daily basis. I have had a couple chai lattes here and there but I am doing much better and starting to feel like I can beat it.
Well after I finally realized what the affects of coffee are I have noticed my teeth are not as sparkling as they once was and wasn't ready to accept the damage I have done.
But then Smile Brilliant wanted to send their teeth whitening kit. Hallelujah!
I can erase the damage I have done and start fresh.
I haven't bleached my teeth since I was in high school. I have also been really scared of using any of the crap at the grocery store. And I always use the whitening toothpaste and it's totally a scam. I have never seen any improvement. But, I was nervous about opening up the box and it would be super complicated to use.
The instructions are very clear on how to use it, and it is really a simple process.
First you have to make the molds for your teeth whitening trays. They are custom to your teeth so you know that it will cover all over your teeth.
You mix the blue and white mixtures together and stick it in the teeth tray, then stick it in your mouth and hold 30 seconds (I forgot to hold that long.) and then pull it out.
Luckily mine both worked on the first time, but there is another set in case you made a mistake. And of course while trying to make my molds the kids think it is play-doh and just want to touch it. Watch the video of Raelyn sticking her sweet little finger in it.
Then you mail them in to the company with the envelope they provide for you, and wait or your trays! It was a very easy process. I am still waiting for my trays to come back and then I will start the whitening process.
In the video I am talking to my friend Taylor. As she was filming me I was actually telling her about how I started using CBD oil and I love it. (more on that one maybe in a later post)
