Natural Health and Wellness

Did you know that eating nasturtium leaves takes away a sore throat. I will never have a garden without growing nasturtium leaves and everytime I feel a tickle in my throat, I pick a few leaves, wash them and chow them down. They taste a little burny, but well worth the reward of taking away a sore throat, instead of taking medication or antibiotics. Nasturtiums are a natural antibiotic. You can also make a yummy nasturtium salad with the leaves and the flowers.

I am fanatical about reading the ingredients on food labels and on cosmetics. I actually can't pick up anything that I buy without looking at the ingredients. It can tell you so much about a product. There are so many ingredients that are harmful and we should be aware of them.

I love to read to my children and they love to be read to! In fact, when I was pregnant, I read to my babies all the time. I especially love to read the meditation books to them. It calms them and give them a sense of balance.
