Creating a Simpler Holiday: Joy-filled Expressions

Creating a JOY-filled, simpler holiday does not happen on-the-fly.  STRESS-filled holidays do!  So how do you keep the joy in and the stress out?  With three key, holiday pre-requisites!

A Fresh Approach to Spring Green Cleaning

The grass is growing, birds are chirping all are signs of another spring season which signals that special time of the year when we give our homes a thorough green cleaning! 

 Get my space right.  Begin with "surveying the land."

Say Good-Bye to Chapped Skin!

 

We often associate dry, chapped skin with cold weather, and though the weather plays a part in drying out skin, weather alone is not the culprit.

Eradicating Time-Wasters in Your Life!

Have you ever felt as if you're just chasing your tail—running in circles?  Are you moving but seemingly not accomplishing what really matters?

You hit the bed exhausted only to wake up feeling tired the next morning and off you go doing the same routines all over again.  Something is wrong with this picture, right?

Stop chasing your tail for a moment and consider the following question…

Spread Thankful Acts this Thanksgiving Season & Beyond!

As I was reflecting last night on our Thanksgiving holiday, that is just a few days away, I thought to myself how fitting it is to celebrate Thanksgiving as a prelude to the Christmas season. 

Without thankful hearts, it is hard to spread Joy and Good Cheer.  If we each stop and think for a moment, I am sure each of us could come up with a couple of things to be thankful for.

One of our customers emailed us the following poem which speaks to being thankful for things we can take for granted.  This poem is entitled, "Thankful" (anonymous).

Establishing Green Clean Routines

 

It is a "no-brainer" that cleaning is a necessary part of life.  The challenge is staying on top of it! 

Have you ever had guests show up unexpectedly and you've said, "My house was clean this morning."

If you are the parent of preschoolers, toddlers or infants; special grace is extended to you!  Young children can sweep in like a tornado; destroying any clean and organized space.  For the rest of us, we may be running out of legitimate excuses. 

Staying on top of a clean environment requires establishing routines.  We have routines for work, we just need to transfer the concept of routines to our home environment.  In fact, it has been said that maintenance is always more effective than a big cleanup.  Maintenance can save up to two thirds of your time than doing a big cleanup.

So in light of the benefits of maintenance, what routines would be most helpful for you?  Answer that and then you will be prepared to set up a plan of action.

Three Tips to Green Clean & Organize Back to School

 

Hopefully you have been able to get your summer de-cluttering finished, and are winding down on other summer projects.  With your children starting a new school year, it is the perfect time to establish new organization routines that teach responsibility for life skills. If your children's organizational skills waned over the summer months, now is the time to get those habits back on track.

One area that seems to be a struggle for many moms I know of is in the area of keeping kids backpacks and school papers from becoming misplaced or even lost.  It is good to teach your children how to be organized and care for their belongings.  Teaching them this responsibility goes a long way!

The following tips are easy responsibility chores your kids can do to keep their school supplies organized as well as cleaned naturally:

Keep Your Soles at the Door!

 

It is my perception that cleaning indoors is a lot like pulling weeds.  Just as you get all the weeds pulled and you have a perfectly manicured garden they’re back!  So it is with cleaning your home—it can be clean in the morning, but by afternoon or evening, you may wonder what happened to the place!

Wholesome Green Living: On a Green Budget

You may have been doing a wonderful job throughout the year on your spending, but with the holidays around the corner and perhaps with your past holiday spending record, you may be about to face another year ending in debt that you don’t need.

Stay financially fit by creating a realistic green budget.

If you have never created a budget before, it is really quite easy to do.   Various budget forms can be found online or you can create your own.

In this blog, however, I simply want to share some ideas of how to trim your expenditures to help you “go green on a budget”!

Below are some key areas for curbing expenditures:

Wholesome Green Living: Optimizing Stress

 

Does the word “stress” make you cringe inside?  Stress is not portrayed as something we want to have.  Countless medical research shows how stress has a negative & harmful effect on our bodies. 

However…not ALL stress is bad!!  According to psychologist, Dr. Douglas Kleiber; “To be happy you need a little stress.”

Wholesome Green Living: Understanding the Playing Field (Part Two)

Ever noticed more and more organic food choices being available at your local grocery store?  Have you tried organic foods?  What’s the big deal about organic food anyway?

If you have been on the fence about whether or not to choose organic foods, I hope this blog will be of help to you! 

 

 

 

First of all, we need to clarify some terms; understand the playing field.

Green Clean Your Pantry in Under an Hour!

Is your pantry is getting low on supplies?  Now would be a good time to give it a green clean before restocking it.

Clear shelves out and wipe down with Harmony All Natural Multi-Purpose Cleaner using a clean rag or microfiber cloth.  You could also fill your sink with soapy water using Harmony All Natural Hand Dish Wash.

 

Restocking your pantry in freshly green-cleaned shelves is a gift to yourself!

When giving your shelves a more thorough all natural clean, you can organize them where clutter is beginning to develop.  At least for me, my cupboards have a tendency to get somewhat disorganized over time.

Give yourself a pat on the back, and enjoy the rest of your day. 

I find that pacing myself in what I green-clean (doing a little every day), helps me to have time for outings with my family.  I know tomorrow the beach is calling us!

What eco-friendly cleaning project can you do under an hour’s time?
