Optimum Health: What are you doing?

I love these Louise Hay Cards!  Here is the latest one I randomly selected a few months ago when I started the newest phase of my best health journey!  It is so perfectly worded as to what I am thriving towards…Optimum Health!  I am thinking about posting blog entries about my current experience.  Not sure yet.

One thing I have found useful are coupons towards great recharging activities.  I have 3 Lifestyle Passes left that expire soon on October 31st.  I am happy to give them away so a few more people get the benefits.  Share a post about what you are doing right now to reach your optimum health.  I will randomly draw 3 names on Thanksgiving Day.

Swap It Earth Day Contest!

Thank you for sharing all the fantastic SWAP It ideas below!

Lia you are the winner!  (My son pulled your name out of the hat.)

Interestingly, in correspondence with your SWAP suggestion, look at the info I found from the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center about the damage styrofoam cups/plates, etc. do to our environment and us…50 years to break-down and listed as a possible human carcinogen.

 

Imagine if we all made just one health sake swap this Earth Day!

Here are a few ideas to get you started…

•  stinky synthetic wax crayons  ➡  SWAP IT  ➡ real soy & beeswax crayons
  
•  sweaty synthetic pillow  ➡ SWAP IT ➡ breathable eco wool/cotton pillow
•  polluting plastic toy  ➡  SWAP IT  ➡  non-toxic wood toy
•  throw away plastic baggies ➡  SWAP IT  ➡ litterless lunch containers
•  chemical-laden lip balm  ➡ SWAP IT  ➡ organic lip balm
•  toxic BPA baby teether➡  SWAP IT➡  organic cotton/real rubber teether

    The list is endless…share your swap!

On Earth Day 2013, we will randomly pick a winner from the list of ideas shared below.  One lucky person will be on their way to many green changes with our Greenplease Swap It Green Goodie Bag!
