Make sure you are building up your immune system and using products that don’t damage your lungs or give you other underlying conditions.

J like to use product that I feel are safe for me my home and my family.

These are a few favorite back-to-school essentials I recommend:

• Sol-U-Guard Botanical Wipes — This product kills 99.9% of bacteria and viruses on hard, nonporous surfaces. It replaces the more toxic Chlorox and Lysol brand wipes.

• Sol-U-Mel — Sol-U-Mel removes stains from items like Sharpie markers, juices, chocolate and wine. It’s great for cleaning white boards.

Both products are non-toxic and eco-friendly.

• Activate-C Immune Complex — Similar to Airborne and other Vitamin C powders but takes it a step further with 1200mg of Vitamin C! Most of the other brands show they contain only 1000mg. Activate-C also comes in orange and reminds me of my childhood favorite — Tang. This Activate Immune Complex boosts your body’s immune system naturally as well.

• Vitamin D3 — This vitamin supports a healthy immune system as well as bone health and overall mood.

• Luminex — A natural alternative, Luminex promotes emotional health, a balanced mood, and general well being..

• Mela-Out — containing magnesium, Mela-Out reduces stress, increases calmness and can help you sleep better.

I love that the products I buy from my Wellness store are made in the USA and shipped straight to my door in two to three days.

Love it!

This is worth sharing

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

For twelve years I was selling products that I loved and loved seeing others feeling the same. It was party plan days (100 years ago) and those social times themselves were fun!

Then there was a day that selling to meet quotas became a pressure for me–and starting over at zero income at the beginning of the month was pressure to me. When I started home care for my parents, the work at home behind those successful years was too much pressure for me. So I walked away.

After a a few years, I found a line of safer for you, less expensive, better-performing products that I loved and got really excited when I learned I did not have to sell them to make money. That fit my lifestyle!! (anything involving just talking fits my lifestyle.)

I discovered that this online Wellness company shared its revenue with those who referred shoppers to the Shopping Club instead of using paid advertising. That was the reason they could use natural, better working ingredients and sell their products for such reasonable prices. No paid advertising saves billions! For twenty years, I have gotten a check every single month from my referrals. Why does it work? People love the products and 96% of the customers I refer order the next month.

Would you really enjoy a check you could depend on every month that did not require selling products? It’s an income stream that doesn’t interfere with your main business/priorities – it fits in between very nicely.
People are needing solutions these days.

Regular Physical Activity Helps to Prevent Cancer

You already know that regular physical activity helps to control weight, maintain healthy blood sugar, elevate mood and strengthen the immune system. But, there wasn’t much research directly linking exercise with cancer prevention – until a landmark study in 2016.

An eye-opening study at JAMA showed that exercise can decrease the risk of various types of cancer by 20%!

You don’t have to be an elite athlete or marathon runner to benefit. Scientists concluded that we should get at least 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of “vigorous” activity every week.

In other words, a half-hour stroll, five days a week, could produce cancer- preventive benefits. And research suggests the benefits could be even better than we realize!

Getting and staying active is a powerful tool in your arsenal of weapons against cancer. Make exercise as enjoyable as possible, be consistent and you will enjoy the lifelong benefits!

The Value of a Growth Mindset

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

We are often moved by those who win in the face of adversity. There is usually a common denominator in their stories: A Growth Mindset.
What does it take to have a growth mindset?

Elements of a Growth Mindset 

  • A desire to develop intelligence
  • A spark to embrace challenges
  • The drive to persist in the face of setbacks
  • The vision to see effort as a path to mastery
  • The wisdom to learn from criticism
  • A sincere thrill to find inspiration in the success of others

Chances are YOU’VE had moments in your past where you’ve excelled in the face of challenges. I love to think that our greatest moments are still coming!

What have you not accomplished that still haunts you? Maybe it’s mindset that’s holding you back!

Brain Cancer Facts

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

When cells in our brain grow out of control, they can form a solid mass. Because your brain has many types of cells, it can get many kinds of tumors. Some are cancer, and others aren’t. Some grow quickly, others slowly. But because the brain is our body’s control center, we have to take all of them seriously.
In adults, the most common tumors that start in the brain are meningiomas and gliomas.
Meningiomas make up more than 35% of all primary brain tumors. They don’t grow from brain tissue itself, but from cells in the brain’s covering. Their non-cancerous location and growth make them serious.
The most common cancerous brain tumors are glioblastomas, about one in five. They’re a type of glioma, tumors that start in your glial cells. They spread quickly and are often fatal.
There has been a noted increase in people being diagnosed with brain tumors. Technology makes them easier to see, but researchers are also looking into other possible causes, such as things in the environment, cell phones, etc.

BRAIN CANCER RISK FACTORS AND SYMPTOMS

RISK FACTORS

  • Radiation. Radiation directed at your head to treat another medical condition, like leukemia, can raise your risk for brain cancer. 
  • Age. Adults over age 50
  • Other Health Issues. A weak immune system, organ transplant, or if brain tumors run in your family.

SYMPTOMS

Early diagnosis is critical. Symptoms depend on the kind of tumor you have and where it is, but you may:

  • Act in ways you normally wouldn’t
  • Feel sleepy throughout the day
  • Find it hard to express yourself, like you can’t find the right words or feel confused
  • Get bad headaches often, especially in the morning
  • Have problems seeing, like blurred or doubled vision
  • Lose your balance easily or have problems walking
  • Have seizures

It’s usually not clear what puts you at risk for a primary brain tumor — one that starts in your brain. But one known cause is radiation directed at your head to treat another medical condition, like leukemia. In most of these cases, the benefit of radiation outweighs the risk that it might cause cancer in the future.

I love coming home
