January 's Conscious Box arrived this week. The theme is "Renew Your Intentions". I guess it is fitting that so many of the products seek to provide help with health and wellness goals since that is usually tops on our list! I enjoyed this box but have to admit that several things in it did not interest me. Here is what it contained: Raw Rev 100 Chocolate & Coconut Bar - This was the first thing to be touched in the box and it was divine. It is raw, vegan gluten free and dairy free. … [Read more...]

Challenging Conventional Nutrition and Health Ideas
Telling me you are a doctor and know a little something about nutrition and health doesn't mean much to me.

The Henry Ford Museum in Detroit
One of the really fun things I got to do on my trip to Detroit for the auto show (NAIAS ) was go to the Henry Ford Museum. I got to see an exhibit that has not opened to the public yet AND had a catered dinner right there among all the amazing cars. I felt kinda bad being there without my Dad though... he would have loved it! I did however, get to have dinner with some amazing green mom friends. As a big history buff I just love museums so this was right up my alley even if cars really … [Read more...]
