When you love to travel, it’s easy to get caught up in where you’re going and planning your travel and itinerary, but you have to keep your health in check. That’s all part of the fun of going on an adventure, whether it’s close to home, like Yosemite, or far away. However, with all that fun, it’s important to be practical about keeping your health in check. There are so many things that can affect our bodies, from long trips to altitude, time changes, and diet changes. [Read more…] about 4 Tips to Keep Your Health in Check While Traveling

How to focus on your health while traveling!
Anyone will agree that traveling is time well spent, but when you do it for longer periods of time, or even if you are going somewhere for over two weeks, you should never disregard your health.

Do you love essential oils? Do you believe in the power of natural remedies and want to start using them more intelligently?
There’s definitely a lot to learn!
You have to know:
- What’s safe
- What works
- What to buy
- Which remedies are right for each situation
- And how to use them (recipes and techniques)
And with so many conflicting opinions online, finding clear answers can be hard — not to mention time-consuming and frustrating.
That’s why I’m so excited to tell you about the Herbs & Essential Oils Super Bundle.
Created by my friends at Ultimate Bundles (and with all-new products for the 2018 edition!), inside you’ll find 22 eBooks, 4 eCourses, 6 printables, and 2 membership sites — all to help you:

Do You Know about the Good Guide?
I often think of the life that Jane Goodall leads. At 82 years old, Jane Goodall is traveling 300 days a year to spread this message: every person makes a difference. Every choice we make in our daily lives will have an effect of some kind, good or bad. Her question is, what difference will you make? The choices we make have an effect on our planet, our health, and even our society. I try to make good choices, and it is so much easier with the Good Guide! The website is our guide to finding items that are safe, green, healthy, and made ethically. If you want to eat healthy, buy from companies who are careful of the environment, and are progressive with their policies, look no further.
The Good Guide App is available on every device now, and it will search and scan products while you are in the store. The ratings are 1-10 and made in three categories: Health, Environment, and Society. The higher the number the better. The final score given is the product’s average.
Download it today, and see how easy your choices become!
Life’s Little Reminders
Yesterday we discovered that a very close friend of ours had a “mini stroke”, and had to have his carotid artery operated on to clear it out. That news made our blood pressure go up (thank goodness we both have low blood pressure). The symptoms were worrisome enough that he and his wife, who is a nurse, sought medical care right away, and it is a good thing they did! The older we get, the more our bodies throw crazy, unheard of, health issues at us! My husband ended up with a double lung transplant two years ago (he was never even on oxygen!) and now Tom had a “Transient Ischemic Attack”, also known as a “mini stroke”. He is doing very well, and probably will get out of the hospital today or tomorrow. Scary, you know? I mean, this is the stuff that is supposed to happen to our parents, not to us! Of course, these things did happen to our parents…both of mine are gone now, but I still think of myself and our friends as young. Certainly too young for strokes and heart attacks and lung diseases! Get better FAST, Tommy Boy! We love you.
The symptoms of a clogged carotid artery are the symptoms of a mini stroke…apparently that is how most carotid artery disease is discovered. At your annual check up your doctor could pick up a “whoosh” sound in your carotid artery, but I’m really not sure how many men go for annual check ups. (I found this guide online for checkups every guy needs, for each decade of life, because once there are symptoms, the disease has already advanced).
Stroke and mini-stroke symptoms may include:
- A sudden, severe headache with no known cause
- Dizziness or loss of balance
- Inability to move one or more of your limbs
- Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Sudden weakness or numbness in the face or limbs, often on just one side of the body
- Trouble speaking or understanding speech
So, I take this as another warning that we cannot take anything for granted. I’m always anxious to do everything NOW. My 90 year old uncle and 79 year old auntie have not been to Dallas in many, many years for a family event. I finally just bought them airline tickets and said, get on the f#%king plane! (Yes, I did use the “F” word.) I pick them up tomorrow. My uncle really wanted to come, he told my aunt, “this may be the last time we see the kids”. You know what? He could be right. So do it now, folks!
Oh, this makes me want to eat fruit and go scuba diving!
