Wow!  The response from last week’s post on supplements and immunity hacks was HUGE.  We can definitely start discussing this topic more regularly, because I, too, am fascinated by and a little obsessed with health and wellness.  I didn’t talk much about probiotics because I was still testing a new one at the time, and I wanted…

How to Make January Bearable

Oh, the winter doldrums.  For many, this is the hardest part of the year.  Cleansing, organizing, and harsh temps without a holiday in sight can make anyone feel a little desperate.  I have a few remedies for you.  First of all, True Botanicals is offering a rare (and really good) GWP right now.  Now through Sunday, January…
