Girls reaching puberty at age 7

August 9th, 2010 · No Comments · environment, news

How horrible is this for these young girls? Do you even remembered what it felt like at 11 or 12 when you were starting to “blossom” and had to wear a training bra? It was bad enough then when the boys would try to snap your back bra strap to see if you were wearing [...]

How plants can heal you

July 7th, 2010 · No Comments · cleanse, environment, news, self care

I’ve been on a healing journey over the past two weeks. The funny thing is that I didn’t realize that was what I was going on when I started out. It’s also part of why I have inadvertently been mostly offline for the past two weeks. Let me explain… The weekend before our Independence Day [...]

Pesticides linked to ADHD

May 17th, 2010 · 1 Comment · environment, news

Our foods are not as safe as we think. I know, it hurts to hear this, but you have to know about it. It’s time to wake up. Ignorance is not bliss – it only keeps you sick, tired, unfocused, and overweight. There are more studies showing that the chemicals that we are being exposed [...]

Out with the old

May 6th, 2010 · 1 Comment · cleanse, diet, environment, inspiration, mindset, self care

Recently I realized that my desk files needed a good purging, so I got a cross-cut shredder to get rid of those papers that I didn’t want and couldn’t just throw out. I spent a couple of hours happily shredding documents and recycling the bits that were taking up so much precious space in our [...]

Edible Garden – homegrown in NYC

June 30th, 2009 · No Comments · environment, events, food

It seems like everyone these days is talking about gardening and growing their own produce. After living in Brooklyn for a few years, we’ve finally started up an edible terrace garden that will give us patio tomatoes, arugula, peppers, leeks, and herbs. If you’re not quite ready to start your own garden but want some [...]

Clean out your files and protect your ID

April 29th, 2009 · No Comments · environment, events

Ever since I did some spring cleaning in my home office I’ve had a stack of personal documents waiting in a milk crate to be disposed of somehow. Since I don’t have my own shredder, they just sit and wait. Happily, I’ll be able to ditch them and protect my identity at Shred Fest this [...]

Get green and clean out your closets

April 27th, 2009 · No Comments · environment, events

Ever since we’ve moved to Brooklyn 3 years ago, there’s been a cardboard box living on our bedroom floor. It remained unpacked and filled with stuff to go to the Salvation Army someday. Yesterday, it finally happened. On Sunday, we dropped off about 40 lbs of our old stuff – used clothes, jackets, hats, ski [...]
