Find your path Hiya! Hope this finds you well and excited by spring’s loveliness {or fall’s splendor if you happen to be south of the equator} Either way, get out and enjoy it. Walk barefoot to get grounded, breathe deeply to allow the negative {but actually super positive physiologically} ions to do their magic. Drink in Mother Earth’s greatest gifts. Spending time in nature has a calming effect, studies show it can lower your blood pressure and soothe an overstimulated nervous system.

a few of my faves... 1. I love the new Craftsy cro-
chet and knit pattern app for my iPhone. How fun to have a beautiful app to find new crochet {and knit} patterns on craftsy to work on. Try it out and let me know what you think!
2. I found the Rodale Institute in 1996,
when studying organic gardening methods during my herbal apprenticeship in Northern California.They publish a ton of helpful books, and even offer online classes! They are an amazing resource, and I just love their website!
3. If you haven’t signed up for
Danielle LaPorte’s daily truthbombs, get to it. She sends you a lovely little reminder each day that packs a powerfully postive and perfectly timed {for me, anyway} message into each little snippet. An easy way to get inspired...

A Walk in the woods

We are totally into hiking in the woods. We are woods walkin junkies. Tiny Girl wears one of her very special hiking outfits {which usually consists of a dress with flowers on it, some comfy pants, her hello kitty socks and a fancy pair of shoes, usually patent leather} I douse her in doTERRA’s terrashield bug repelent. {ewwww, ticks} This time we visited a beautiful new spot in northwestern Michigan. When I go for a walk in nature I feel uplifted, as if the trees take away my stress and replace it with love, positive energy and new ideas. I am inspired by the colors I see, imagining how gorgeous they will look in a crocheted granny square blanket. I take a ton of pictures to remind me of how I feel. I snap pics of Tiny Girl playing, then I can remember how she enjoyed the forest so that I can try to translate that childlike {and pure} feeling into my own actions.
