I have a dream
“On some positions, Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' And Vanity comes along and asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But Conscience asks the question 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right.”
~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

The cost of "Cheap" goods
We create walls so we don't have to "know" the truth.
All those cell phones, all those gadgets, hell! even all our underwear is now made in China under horrible conditions.
Vote with your wallet - buy local, buy used, reuse and borrow, consume less. Get creative, refuse to buy from unscrupulous companies.

Creating a beautiful world together
2012 is the year of unity: we are one.
This inspiring article in Massage Magazine touched me this morning. Here's how it begins:
"As I travel around the globe speaking and training, I have consistently found most people ask me the same question, "How do I discover my purpose in life?" In the past, who you became was determined by your family and circumstances. You didn't have much choice. But now there is an open moment in history where you have the chance to tap into the soul of your purpose..."

Spice up the season!

Make your own Gingerbread Spice Synergy!
This inspired us to share with you... From our
recipes page, here's a simple way to infuse your office and home with winter warmth and invigorating holiday spirit (and you don't even have to turn the oven on!)
In a glass bottle, add:
Cap tightly and shake well. Using an eye dropper put 4 drops of this Gingerbread Spice Synergy into your diffuser.
If you don't have a diffuser, you can simply take a glass bowl and fill it half way with very hot water then drop the oil synergy into that and it will diffuse for about an hour.
Or if you want to make a
Gingerbread Room Spritzer you'll need:
- one 8 ounce (240 ml) spray bottle
- 100 proof vodka (odorless, natural alcohol) *
- the Gingerbread Spice synergy you just created (above)
Fill the bottle to about 1/2 an inch from the top of the bottle with the 10 proof vodka. Add the synergy (all of it). Cap tightly with sprayer top. Shake vigorously and spray to refresh the room.
* If you don't have alcohol you can use water, but alcohol works much better.
Shake before spraying every time you use it because oils will float to the top of the alcohol when it sits. Store in cool, dark place. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN & PETS! (More on using essential oils
here.)
