How to love on the planet and yourself with Pura Naturals soap infused sponges

Hi Gorgeous!
Happy Saturday to you! It's so, so windy here. 50 mph gusts of wind here is creating a desert like cyclone and it's cold too!

So there won't be much going outside today due to the weather.

Sophia Ruan Gusheé tips for Earth Day and reducing toxic exposures

Hi ya Gorgeous,
Here's a lil share for you for some healthy Earth Day help for you! Remember, every little act you do counts on a global scale. You may feel like it doesn't, but it does! You matter!

Just like our bodies, we are only given one earth.  Making changes in your personal health takes effort and close attention, so it’s no surprise that when attempting to make changes to the Earth’s health similar attention is needed. As the author of A to Z of D-Toxing: The Ultimate Guide to Reducing Our Toxic Exposures, Sophia Ruan Gusheé understands this with mastery.

 

Below 3 Tips from Sophia to boost our Planet’s health this Earth Day:

 

1.       Learn more about proper recycling practices.

·         For instance, did you know that lightbulbs, ceramics, pyrex, and broken glass cannot be recycled at home? That pizza boxes can only be recycled when the spots with grease residue have been discarded? Or that it's perfectly fine to add glossy paper, like junk mail and magazines, to your paper recycling bin?

 

2.       Support the planet's health by eating more plant based meals. Experts say that switching to a vegetarian diet will reduce your carbon footprint more than abandoning your car would!

·         If you're thinking - didn't I recently read that lettuce is worse for the environment than bacon? - Rest assured that when you compare lettuce and bacon pound per pound, and not by calorie, a pound of bacon has six times the carbon footprint than a pound of lettuce, according to the Environmental Working Group.

 

3.       Focus on reducing toxic exposures

·         Industrial chemicals, used to make our consumer product, have been found all over the world - in humans, in wildlife, and in the most pristine corners of the world, and have been linked to a slew of adverse health effects in humans and animals. D-toxing your products will help reduce the demand for harmful chemical ingredients, which will promote the health of our planet.

Opus Gaia oils for Earth Day

Good morning Gorgeous! Happy Earth Day to you! Enjoy yourself today-take a walk and recycle something and do some gardening! Don't have a yard,try a tower garden or a small pots and boxes on your patio.        

I've been enjoying some samples from the aromatherapy company
Opus Gaia which was foundedby Adora Winquist in 1998.                              

And I quote the Opus Gaia website : ""Aromatherapy is the art and science of using pure extracts from aromatic plant materials, termed essential oils, to attend to specific health and wellness needs while utilizing a holistic framework. As the scientists behind the practice, aromatherapists are constantly discovering and preparing new scent combinations that can help to naturally induce a state of balance in our lives and reconnect us with various aspects of our human experience. The focus areas for which we use aromatherapy to foster a healthy lifestyle are our physiology, our psychology (including our emotions), and of course our spirituality."            

There are so many wonderful scents to choose from, visit http://www.opusgaia.com today to find a retailer near you and enjoy Earth Day all year round!

My hair is so fat! Yours can be too with Chinese Herbs shampoo!

Best Skin-Benefiting Natural Ingredients

Find out cool facts about the ingredients in natural skin care and why you should befriend them

Did you know that April is Earth Month? Read on for a line-up of hot topic natural ingredients. See which products they're found in, and what they can do to improve your skin. Read about ingredients

When I say fat hair, I mean it! As you know, lately I've been using Revitabrow to grow some thick and full eyebrows so I can go to the mall and do the "threading" process. Normally, I have the wee'est of brows and I'm lucky if I get to pluck one stray a month. If that.

Now my hair is the same story, it is thin and after the birth of my son, it is thin and curly. I just got a sample of the Peter Lamas Chinese Herbs shampoo, conditioner and revitalizing nutrient mist. This system is designed to grow hair and make the hair that you have thicker. Well, with continued use mine may grow in thicker but after one shampoo, rinse and repeat with some spritzes of the nutrient mist it looks and feels thicker.
The shampoo and conditioner have a brown tone to them and a pungent earthy smell. I like it. Smells like the herbs are working while I'm washing!

I enjoyed my experience even more so because they are organic herbs, the Peter Lamas line is part of the "beauty without compromise" program, are Earth friendly in every way as we get ready for Earth Day on Thursday Arpril 22nd.
