Dear Readers - April 20, 2011

Dear Family and Friends,

Who could not celebrate Earth Day today with the flowers coming out in full bloom, the weather starting to warm up, and sunshine becoming more plentiful! I've come to the conclusion that taking care of "the earth" means taking care of your personal environment, and the environment inside your body. Being mindful of what is put into the body, and mindful of how our behaviors affect the environmental ecology and the people around us socially. It's all part of creating a harmonious world.

I continue my odyssey here at the Optimum Health Insitute as a missionary. They are a bit short-handed these days, so I'm working extra hours, but on the plus side I've got a room all to myself. I'm very impressed with the programs that OHI has developed, and I believe my sister's life was changed by her short week-long immersion in the programs here. That is very gratifying to me.

In lieu of the radiation situation in Japan, we've been getting some inquiries not just about radiation protection, but more generally about electromagnetic pollution and what to do about it. Boyd Martin has written a great article about the subject of EMF (Electro-Magnetic Field) stress, and has written about how a couple of our products are extremely effective at countering EMF stress.

I have to say my favorite is the Clean Sweep Energy Spray. I haven't seen it fail to "clean" the negativity out of a space, greatly reduce stress levels, and very shortly put smiles on faces. I do hope you'll check it out.

Until next time...
