Last night marked the first real snowfall here in Minneapolis. Although there are just a few inches on the ground, the transition to winter is evident. The air is crisper and chillier, and I find myself reaching for gloves every time I go out. Soon enough, I’ll be well into my first Minnesota winter. Uh oh 😉 … Cue the hot tea, cozy sweaters, and of course, some warm soups and stews. Bundling up and nourishing ourselves with hot foods and drinks is a sure way to stay warm in the winter, but we can also bear the cold by taking an occasional bath . While soaking in hot water is a great way to unwind and relax, adding epsom salts to a bath can provide even more benefits. Epsom salts are made from magnesium and sulfate, dissolve easily in water, and are readily absorbed through the skin. Soaking in an epsom salt bath  is an alternative way to take in magnesium, a mineral that is essential to overall wellness. Epsom salts are a natural replacement for commercial bath salts that may contai...

Wise Bread Picks Mold is everywhere. It might even be hiding on everyday items that you didn't even think to check. With continued exposure, you can begin developing respiratory problems or allergic reactions. Where to Look for Mold Here's where mold might be lurking. Toys Recent findings of mold in children's sippy cups and teething toys have led to widespread panic among parents. However, most pediatricians agree that a small amount of mold exposure is usually okay for children, except if your baby has a mold allergy or an immune deficiency. However, your child's toys should be cleaned regularly so that they don't accumulate a significant amount of mold over time. If you notice shadowing coming from inside of the toy, or the toy smells bad , then you need to clean it to reduce the chance of you or your child getting sick from mold exposure. Children's toys, dog toys, and bath toys can become covered in mold. Mold can also grow inside of a squeaky toy or a...

Coconut oil has a bit of a craze surrounding it lately. People have put together hundreds of different uses for this beneficial oil and it’s found its way into pantries, medicine cupboards, and even first aid kits. Some of the uses may seem bizarre at first, but coconut oil has garnered this newfound fame for good reason. It works. For years, coconut oil has had a bad name, lumped in with unhealthy saturated fats . People steered away from it and other high fat foods . The problem with throwing coconut oil in the same category as butter, margarine, and shortening is this oil is far healthier than it appears. The saturated fats in coconut oil come from medium chain triglycerides . These shorter fat chains are easily put to use by the body and are not simply stored away as fat. This means coconut oil boosts energy levels , raises good cholesterol , and balances out blood sugar without the weight gain, cholesterol, and other health risks that come from other saturated or trans fats. C...

Do you ever feel extra delicious after taking a shower? All of your muscles, skin, bones, and fascia feel like they’re much more integrated with each other than when you first entered, no? In fact, you may feel calmer, more level-headed, and your body may feel less tight. When we shower or take a bath, it is to cleanse our body of impurities, and we often just perform this as a task to get ready for work or bed, or as a midday refresher post -workout. However, water purification not only cleanses the Body, but depending on how we do it, it can also also clear the Mind, Spirit, and Heart, as well. Since the dawn of time, cleansing ourselves has taken on many meanings. And, it has become meaningful. Water, in and of itself, is life. Water brings growth and rebirth. And, humans, plants, and animals need it to live, thrive, and multiply. It also feeds our Earth Consciousness. It symbolizes life, growth, purity, flow, sensuality, emotion, and energy. Without water, everything on on our pla...

One great thing about frugal living is that being frugal tends to lower your impact on the environment. In honor of Earth Day, we have collected some money saving tips and articles that are also good for the environment. Ride A Bike Get a bicycle. Goodwill stores often have nice used ones for $10 or so. Make sure it's the right size for you, it's comfortable and you know how everything on it works. Then put reflectors on it, a basket on the front and/or back, get a lightweight lock, and go for it. Optional: light, and rear-view mirror on handlebars. And please always wear bright-colored clothes when riding, or at least tie a bright scarf on the back. Thrifty, green people know how to avoid accidents. By Jantoo Cloth Bags For Groceries A few stores in my area, like Fred Meyer, have been selling sturdy reusable cloth totes to use instead of paper or plastic bags.
