What better time than THIS Christmas season to start helping your children prepare for the most unusual year end of their lives.
So much has changed.. at home, at school, and yes most definitely with trips or lack the new lack thereof visits to hug beloved family members... especially grandparents.
This book is highly recommended if you or a teacher hasn't already read or given it to your child. They are most likely very unsure about why their lives have changed so drastically, or why it is so important to protect themselves and others by doing the 3 Ws.

To Remake the World, Give Girls All the (Power) Tools
In an op-ed published by Fast Company, Emily Pilloton writes about how to equip girls in order to build power and voice and to change the authorship of our physical world. The article begins with a description of Emily’s personal path to building, before expanding to the state of trades, construction, and STEM, and onto a case for how learning to build can fundamentally alter our lives forever. Bolstered by accounts from teen participants in Girls Garage programs, a carpenter/educator, and an architecture and design writer, Emily shows how to give girls the literal, mental, and spiritual tools they need to build a better world.

What a delightful gift for women ages 12 and up. While most adult women have had glimpses of a few of these women… they are many here that will both surprise and amaze us to read about for the first time. Here a few more reviews you may wish to delve into as we felt as they did about this book.
Bad Girls Throughout History is a nonfiction book that is both educational and inspiring. It tells the stories of women we already knew of and the women who we brushed off. It tells us just how great of an impact that women have had on aspects of modern culture, with their contributions to science, art, literature, politics, and war combat. Both young girls and grown women will gain something from this book, as they will find a role model in someone who looks just like them. Lune Magazine

This is a truly delightfully meaningful book that would make a WONDERFUL Christmas, birthday or any day gift for your child or grandchild.
We recommend it be part of school libraries ASAP.

The Magnesium Miracle by Dr. Carolyn Dean, MD, ND
A Miracle??? Could a simple mineral truly deliver such a promise to discover the missing link to total health?
In "The Magnesium Miracle - by Carolyn Dean, M.D., N.D." she states and I quote, "80% of our population is deficient in magnesium's absolute necessity for the proper functioning of 700-800 enzyme systems in the body."
I read the 65 conditions associated with Magnesium deficiency in Part 1 of this book. The long list of ailments of which many I personally suffered, there were 3 that gave me a wake-up yell, the HEART, OSTEOPOROSIS and LEG CRAMPS.
What did I have to lose? It is not a drug, rather a long-lost nutrient not replenished in our farming soil. Plus, we have a 'fail-safe mechanism in our body that eliminates excess when we become saturated. Her 8 oz bottle of picometer, stabilized ionic, non-laxative liquid magnesium, 100% absorbable at the cellular level arrives.I slowly introduce it into my depleted body daily, as suggested.
Amazingly in the 1st week my foggy-zombie brain clears, and nightly leg cramps reduce. Four months now and realizing wonderful further wellness. My heart palpitations have dropped 1.5% since last recording. WOW, could a return to good heath be just this simple?
The book guides to "100 Factors Related to Magnesium Deficiency" and extensive research on this miracle mineral's essential circulation in our body. Bonus surprises, weight loss, more energy and visual signs of a return to youthfulness
So grateful for the timely guidance that lead me to read this book by the superbly anointed, 'doctor of the future'. Without hesitation I recommend this book to all who desire a total body reset.

Trust by Destiny Blue
When I first saw this beautiful artwork by Destiny Blue called Trust I LOVED it immediately. While it is done in some of my favourite colours there was so much more that touched my heart. One of our most important life lessons is not only about the trust of others it is even more imperative that we learn to trust ourselves, our choices, our limits.
What I see here is that we all have the key to our tender hearts and only need to trust when and to whom to use it. I highly recommend you take a look at the many AMAZING artworks this beautiful woman has prolifically created for us out of both her highs and lows of mental health issues.
In fact, in January 2019 Destiny found herself going through a low that has had her hospitalized and is in need of being able to afford quality mental health care to help her see the value of her being here with us as much as we do. If you would like to do so you can visit her Go Fund Me Page. When you read the info there you will to decide to donate or not.
View the review of her work by Kelsey Borresen or purchase her work at DeviantArt. Destiny has a lot more to share with us, don’t you think?
