The Gift of Health

Image
Keep in mind this Christmas shopping season... YOU, the customer, are our everything! Spending $100 at Walmart or another retail or department store during the holidays won't make a difference to anyone; but spending $100 through a home business owner for Christmas means our business can continue, it provides for our families, helps us meet our personal goals, and helps us continue to do what we love without using harsh sales techniques. The big stores will not care about you the way we will because unfortunately, you don't mean that much to them. You mean the world to me!!! Shaklee - Give the gift of health to your loved ones that will last throughout the new year and will continue to change their lives and their future! They will thank you! www.srkindred.myshaklee.com Below are some great Shaklee Gift Idea's: Vitalizer & Protein - feel better in 30 days or your money back - guaranteed! - Get a FREE Shaklee lifetime membership with the pur

Five Very Good Reasons Why Christians Should Vote

Image
I personally have friends and family who go to a church where members believe that it is against God's will to vote. I have heard of times when concerned that a corrupt politician would win an election, church members gathered for an all-night prayer vigil. In the morning, however, they refused to vote and the good candidate lost. Didn’t those church members do the right thing? After all, isn't politics a dirty business? Christians are citizens of heaven, not of earth… right? ~ WRONG! ~ There are at least five very good reasons why Christians should vote according to Author Jeffrey L. Myers, from his book Vital Truth: Christian Citizenship 1. God has granted us authority. - All authority belongs to God, but He has put human beings on the earth as caretakers. What is our task? According to  Jesus in Matthew 28:18-20, we are to go out and make disciples of all nations, teaching them to obey God in every area of life. This includes politics. We must disciple peopl

What's in Your Antiperspirant?

Image
    'Parabens' are present in almost 100% of breast cancer tumors.    I am ECSTATIC that Shaklee provides paraben-free antiperspirant that works & works so well - I'm shocked, truth be told. It is that good. Woman everywhere need to switch to this paraben-free antiperspirant, in hopes of avoiding breast cancer. Listen. Our DAUGHTERS need to be using this antiperspirant!   Why in the world, when parabens are found in almost all breast cancer, would we even take the risk?  I choose to do everything I can do on my part, such as removing parabens from my deodorant, as a precautionary measure. Please consider doing the same not only for yourself, but your female family members, as well.  Remember, if you don't like it, Shaklee has a 100% money back guarantee .   Desert Wind® Roll-on Antiperspirant - Size: 2 fl. oz. $6.10 for members ($7.15 non-members) Order here!   Gentle, long-lasting protection against wetness and odors is the h

Cool Simple Science Experiment

Cool Simple Science Experiment ...... ......to do with the kids   What you need:   small bowl or lid for each kid toothpick for each kid milk dish soap food coloring   pour just enough milk into the lid to cover the bottom then add two or three drops of food coloring around the sides (see picture below)     Next, put dish soap on the end of a tooth pick (I use Shaklee dish wash concentrate - it is all natural, safe, nontoxic, and super concentrated!)    insert the toothpick with soap side down into the middle of the milk.  Hold the toothpick still and watch it swirl                 Even the two year old thought it was pretty cool!   We dumped ours out and done it a few times - the kids had so much fun choosing different color combinations.

Book Review: God Loves Broken People by Sheila Wash

Image
God Loves Broken People by Sheila Walsh Rating: 2 Stars I thought I'd really love this book. A GREAT title, and a much needed message in a world that is hurting. The problem is that the content failed to deliver. I was hoping for a message that would inspire, encourage, and lift up my heart. I had a hard time making myself read the book. It's not that it's a bad book, just too chaotic and much too difficult for me personally, to follow. I got bored very easily and would put it down for weeks. I'd pick it back up to try to read again and the same thing would happen. I too, was GREATLY OFFENDED by the Chapter titled, "FIERCE LOVE AND HALLOWEEN GRACE." This was an INAPPROPRIATE comparison made between God's grace and Halloween! The author states, "I call this kind of grace 'Halloween grace,' because it wears an unanticipated costume. (Halloween Costumes) don't 'necessarily give any clue to the sort of kid on the inside. Grace

TUGBOAT: My Voyage Out Of Obesity Book Reveiw

TUGBOAT: My Voyage Out Of Obesity by: Cheryl Long  I recently won this ebook through Treasures From A Shoebox giveaway, and to be honest, I was more curious than interested. You see, I already take Shaklee supplements (the best all-natural supplements on the market in my opinion) and have noticed a major difference in my health (my skin disease, headaches, leg pain from being ran over) -  all 100% better!  However there is one major problem I still can't seem to get a handle on when it comes to nutrition..... and that is my weight. While I have never been thin, I have been healthy, but that's been about 7 yrs ago. I love to bake (I've got chocolate No Bake cookies cooling on the kitchen counter as I write this) and cook big country style meals for my family. With taking care of our little hobby farm, milking goats, gardening, canning, caring for my family of five, a special needs child, and running my home business , I always manage to put my hea

What's lurking under your kitchen sink?

Image
Mine used to be full of hazardous chemicals....... Here is what I cleaned with in the past - Dangers under my sink included phenols, cresol, lye, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, petroleum distillates, ammonia, sodium hydroxide, butyl cellosolve, phosphoric acid, formaldehyde, morpholine, phthalates and much more. Educate yourself about what you bring into your home at www.householdproducts.nlm.nih.gov/products.htm But Now I clean with Shaklee....... Here is what I clean with now: (kitchen, bathroom, disinfect, laundry and all other cleaning needs included!) Note: the three spray bottles behind the Basic H2 bottle on the right hand side is all Basic H2 -just mixed differently for different cleaning jobs! Did you see that!!!! I went from 24 (toxic) items to 6 (safe) items! That's a BIG difference! . Shaklee  believes health isn't just about what you put into your body, but what's around you. That's why they b

The Vitamin Experiment

Image
Curious if it really matters what brand of supplements you use? The proof is in a 20 year study conducted by UC Berkeley. The most shocking part? Check out the areas of heart attack, stroke, cancer, and diabetes - you are better off taking NO supplements than taking other brands of supplements. Ingredients found in a popular over the counter multi-vitamin. Do you know where your vitamins come from and what they are made of? Check out this picture - you will be shocked!! What Makes Shaklee Vitamins better than the rest? Did you know that 'X' brands (sold at drug stores, discount marts and health food stores) need only 10% natural ingredients to legally be classified and sold as “All-Natural.” Shaklee food supplements are 100% natural - with the research to back  it up! Check out the three different kinds of vitamins here ! Now, if that isn't enough to get you thinking - I decided to do my own Vitamin Experiment : The Vitamin on the left is a Men’s On
