I help women simplify & reduce overwhelm
by experiencing the beauty of
Christ-Centered Slow Living.
I am the grateful wife of Michael and homeschooling mother of six amazing children. I am a Christ-follower, a recovering busy person, and a lover of anything and everything blue and white! Some of the ways I experience slow living are by creating beauty in my home and garden, quiet times with Jesus, and the pure joy of reading. Oh, and did I mention I absolutely love thrifty homemaking?
Committed To A Better Future
Are you tired, weary, and overwhelmed? God did not call you to be busy. Christ-Centered Slow Living means intentionally choosing to make Jesus the core of your life. It means prioritizing relationships, prayer, God’s Word, and pursuing His will over lesser things. It means peace…now’s the time to take back your life.

Hi Janelle! What a beautiful family! I’m glad to have found you!
Thank you for your kind words Alli! Stop back soon!
You do have a beautiful family. I too am a follower of Christ. I am trying to find a way to keep up to date on your website. I also use cptg essential oils. Your site is a treasure to me. I read about your oil regimine and 18 ant-inflammatory oils; however I would love to hear about your autoimmune story.
Thank you for your kind comments! I am so glad The Peaceful Haven has been a blessing to you. If you would like to keep up to date on my blog posts you can sign up for my newsletter on the sidebar. Thanks for stopping by!
Janelle – I am making your oil blend for celiac’s. Do you use equal amounts of each oil?
Sure do…I hope you will find it helpful Debbie!
Looking good Little Sis
Keep up the good work!

Awe…thanks, Pat! Appreciate your encouragement! Hope you are doing well!
Hello Janelle and blessings,
My name is John and my wife and I live in Norfolk, England. I lead an all lady home group that meets on the third Wednesday of every month. I was praying about what our topic should be for this first month of a new year, and thought that a personal spiritual check up would be a good way to start us off!
So I went to Google and found your website, and copied off your checklist.Then I had to adapt it a bit and will fit some key verses to the topics you listed. (I hope you don’t mind?) I will be printing your website address on the bottom.
I was looking at the picture of your beautiful home and reading some of your story, and I felt the Holy Spirit prompt me to send you a ‘Thank you’ message. Whether for encouragement or some other reason I don’t know, but obviously the Lord is thinking about you!
Nothing we do in our Lord’s name goes unnoticed, and as our Good Shepherd He loves us and cares for us.
Many blessings,
John Winlow
Dear John,
I am thrilled that you were able to use my checklist and that is exactly why I write! So very thankful you thought it helpful. I will be praying for your ladies home group and for you as you lead!
Now, I must thank you for following the Holy Spirits lead as I very much needed to hear an encouraging word. Thank you!
Please feel free to use anything you find helpful here at The Peaceful Haven which refers to Jesus, not my home. 🙂
Ironically, one of my daughters is headed over to your neck of the woods and will be a missionary in Ireland. She just returned home from her vision trip and should head over in August if her fundraising goes well.
Blessings,
Janelle
