    06/10 /No Comments

The good news is you don’t have to have a big garden to do that in – it can just be a chair on a patio or even a balcony if that’s what works for you.

    How To Cope With Initial Pregnancy Anxiety: Three Tips To Help Ease The Burden

    05/22 /No Comments

    Pregnancy is tough, no matter which way you look at it, and it’s important to understand that the different stages of childbirth trigger unique anxieties. Several months in, it may be stress regarding your ability to cope once the baby arrives, or perhaps it’s the physiological symptoms that are taking their toll. Then, during labor, you have several hours of very intense stress as you prepare for the birth.   But there’s also the initial part – the time when you’ve just found out you’re pregnant, and are thinking about the future and wondering how you’re going to manage the situation. Today’s article will focus on just that; here’s how…

    Cruelty-Free vs Zero Animal Testing: What Your Beauty Labels Aren’t Telling You

    05/16 /No Comments

    Let’s talk about one of the most misunderstood phrases on your beauty products: cruelty-free. It sounds nice, right? It gives the warm fuzzies. But here’s the catch — just because something says “cruelty-free” doesn’t mean no animals were harmed in the making. Yep. It’s the marketing version of saying, “I’m a nice guy,” while quietly doing the opposite behind closed doors.   And the sad truth? There’s no legal definition in the U.S. for “cruelty-free.” That means brands can slap it on a label even if the ingredients were tested on animals by a third party or supplier. Or if they sell in countries (like mainland China) where animal testing…
