Ok, I lied, it’s not the final word on Haiti, not that I could have that word anyway. After last week’s post, I had a few other thoughts (and a few things to add) and thought I’d shoot them out here. I only titled this post The Final Word, because after this I’ll [...]
Editor’s Note: The Cove won the Oscar for Best Feature Documentary! Congratulations!
Thanks to the passionate filmmakers who spread awareness through this documentary and to viewers who took action, including those who signed the Care2 petition.

Uncluttering is the act of restoring balance to your life by eliminating unimportant things—and doing it will free up time, energy and space for the things that really matter. You can get rid of clutter. No matter how much you have, how small your home, or how little spare time you have, you can transform chaos into order, and here's how to start.

That is why it is a good idea to consider repurposing fabric and altering clothing items that you [...]
While feng shui may not result in that winning lottery ticket you dream of (then again, it just might!), it brings many other benefits by creating a more harmonious and balanced flow of chi through your home. Just as fresh air, clean water and natural foods support the physical health of our bodies, so does [...]
I spent two weeks in Haiti shortly after the earthquake and what I saw there was truly unreal. For starters, the devastation is beyond belief, bordering on the incomprehensible. You can look at pictures of what has happened, but to truly understand the scope of it, you need to see it firsthand. Essentially, the city [...]
I am told Cabin Fever is not a measurable or diagnosed affliction. But, it is getting capitalized here like any true disease with a name because I believe it is real. I bet you know many, many fine folks who have fallen ill with this degenerative mood-altering ailment. What, with the snow, ice, rain, slush, [...]

We are a sleep-starved nation. About 60 million Americans suffer from insomnia, and according to the National Sleep Foundation, nearly seven out of ten report frequent sleeping problems–although most remain undiagnosed.
Alarmed? You should be. As Stanford University “sleepdebt” expert William C. Dement, MD, PhD, warns: “Lost sleep accumulates as a debt that [...]
