Subscriptions

Good Morning!
While I have been away, I have not stopped my research or reading the most current news.  There are several subscriptions that are great for those of you either living a green lifestyle, wanting to get good healthy recipes, or wanting to keep up on natural medicine...

The Herb Companion is a website that offers an e-newsletter... it has a LOT of good information on herbs, local harvesting, purchasing natural / organic items... This particular article is about wintering your herbs.  Herbs can be expensive if you use them as you should and are not growing your own.  Even in the northern states / countries herbs can be grown indoors - they provide a wonderful aroma and are much less expensive than the alternatives... start with a long window box and your most used herbs...

The World's Healthiest Foods is one of my FAVORITE sites.  George and his team provide DAILY recipes in his daily e-newsletter, and his site provides detailed information on every type of fruit / vegetable out there.  If you want to know how to cook something - check out his site.  If you want to know the health benefits of a certain food or herb, this is the place to go.  The article I have provided below is his Fresh Herbed Chicken recipe.

Dr Weil is a noted nutritionist and has a lot of good information. HOWEVER, I find a lot of not so great information as well, so please make sure to use common sense and your own judgement here.  He promotes vitamins - which if you are eating properly you do not need.  He is alway trying to sell his brand of things too... so just be careful when reading his recommendations.  That being said, he has some great quizs, great articles on food and nutrition, and awesome Q&A sessions about many of the diseases that plague our society.  He also has a weekly e-newsletter, but I stopped subscribing after I got bombarded with ads.  I now just regularly visit his site to get the info I want.  The article below refers to migraines and you will see on the right hand menu several of his advertisments.

 Mother Earth News provides some good GREEN ways to manage things around your home.  Solar power, plans to build your own compost bin, how to fight bugs naturally, how things affect the earth... some good articles.  They have a variety of different e-newsletters depending upon your interests, and also a magazine you can subscribe to, if you so choose.  I have included one of their articles on flea control below.

Ode Magazine is one of my favorites.  If you are interested in positve changes happening around the world - and participate as you can - this is the magazine for you.  I get a lot of good information out of the articles and they always leave me feeling uplifted.  People are seeking to make a positive change to this world - I so dislike watching the news as all I hear is negativity - this makes up for that tenfold!  Ode provides both e-newsletters and a printed publication, links to both are provided below.  The article I chose to share is Eleven Lessons from Nelson Mandela.  Enjoy.

Wayne Dyer has an AWESOME blog... I know.  Really, I am not sending you away - just feeding you more! :)  The Heal Your Life blog has some excellent writers - but I find Dr Wayne Dyer to be more uplifting and practical than the others.  Check them out.  The article I have included below is Heaven Within.
