Plus: Australian Aborigines and beliefs around Nature

Happy Monday my friend,

🍌 I love bananas. If you eat them too, check out this video (less than 1 min) on how to easily turn your peels into fertilizer for your plants.

🚰 Plus: If you haven’t made a point to get a great filter for your home, let this be your sign to DO IT. One of the most tested Reverse Osmosis units (with no installation required) is having their big ‘sale on sale’ right now. Don’t put off water filtration.

MONDAY MOTIVATION

🏖️ BE THE CHANGE: What better way to protect nature… than with more nature? In coastal Europe, some countries (notably, Belgium) are mimicking nature to protect coastlines from storm surges which could flood or damage cities and/or natural areas. But how do conservation groups do this? By using man-made estuaries that imitate coastal marshlands—while providing new native habitat for local wildlife, too! It’s a wise technique, and an amazing read (with a great little film to match).

🍓 RECIPE OF THE WEEK: Whether or not it’s getting warmer where you live, we can all appreciate a refreshing treat. So forgot those corn syrup and artificial flavored pops. Instead, try this 3-ingredient solution for delicious no-sugar popsicles. You can use the monk fruit option mentioned in the article, swap it for another sugar substitute, or go with a touch of a natural sweetener if you prefer.

🍠 SUPERFOOD SPOTLIGHT: Sweet potatoes contain vitamins, minerals, beta carotene, and unique antioxidants that make it a veritable superfood. Even better: there are purple sweet potatoes, even more “Super” and healthier! (Since they boast similar antioxidant anthocyanin superpowers to other purple superfoods.) Whether fries, pies, baked, mashed, hashbrowns… try swapping sweet potatoes for regular potatoes in some of your favorite recipes. If done right, you’ll turn carbo-loading into a superfood endeavor.

👁️ MIND: There are many ways to rate intelligence. Testing “social intelligence,” how well we can read or connect with others, is one way—and this test can also rate your social intelligence by how fast you interpret what someone is feeling… simply by looking at their eyes! Take this “mind reader” test now, and find out if your mind has high social intelligence— or, read about the different kinds of I.Q. here, and find out where your I.Q. might be highest.

⏰ BODY: According to recent research, fighting cancer in the body might work ‘like clockwork’— with help from the body’s internal clock, its circadian rhythms. Read more about what circadian rhythms do, and how scientists found that cancer treatments are more effective (or not!) at certain times of day, depending on an individual’s unique circadian rhythms— and may be completely ineffective if circadian rhythms are off-balance, too. This turns a big corner in research!

🧘 SPIRIT: Nature, landscapes, and spiritual well-being are intricately connected in some indigenous beliefs: including those of the Australian Aborigines. Read this powerful article on the Australian / Aboriginal perspective around eco-anxiety, spirituality, dreaming, and how human mental health may be reflecting what the earth and environment are experiencing and feeling due to degradation, pollution, and more.

💦 The time for Reverse Osmosis has come

You already know the importance of staying hydrated for your overall health and well-being.

But with all the news and recent studies I’ve shared lately about contamination by pesticides and microplastics: have you thought about what’s really in the water you drink everyday?

The truth is, your tap water is not as safe as you think.

In fact, if you’ve been reading this newsletter, you’re likely aware of PFAS - also called “forever chemicals” – contaminating our everyday drinking water.

According to research, exposure to PFAS can contribute to various health problems such as:

  • Weakened immunity

  • Fatigue, brain fog

  • Higher cholesterol

  • Liver issues

  • Anemia

  • Weight gain

  • Pregnancy complications

  • And even some types of cancer…

But the numerous other contaminants like lead, chlorine, fluoride, arsenic, prescription drug residue, and pesticides continue to be prevalent in our nation’s tap water.

Thankfully, a few years ago I found a solution that’s not only easy, but affordable…

It’s the AquaTru Carafe Reverse Osmosis Water Purifier.
