Letter from the Publishers

Greetings!
Cindy and I are looking forward to cooler weather. Not cold, just cooler, ok? Somehow the summer vegetables in the garden just kept on growing but there are two rows that we didn’t plant that are ready to become our fall garden. For us this has always been the time of the year to look back and remember good times past, to remember our parents and their parents and to celebrate where we came from. We look forward to the lifting of the burn ban so we can cook outdoors and although living in The Cabin kind of is like camping out, go on some fall camping trips together.

sleeping couple Feature Article - Chasing Zzzzzs- how to put insomnia to rest
by Marlaina Donato

Tossing and turning most of the night while obsessing about the need for sleep is a torture we all go through every now and then, but for the 40 percent of Americans dealing with current or chronic insomnia, it can be a regular nightmare. In fact, 50 to 70 million adults in the U.S. suffer from some form of sleep disorder, according to the American Sleep Association.

The causes are multi-faceted: stress, pharmaceutical side effects, hormonal imbalances, chronic pain, anxiety and too much caffeine all fuel the insomnia loop. Add to that the overstimulation from 24/7 technology, social pressures and unresolved emotional pain, and it’s easy to see why long, hard, sleepless nights have become a worldwide epidemic. .

Natural Kids - Kids with Gradtitude-making thankfulness second nature

by Ronica O’Hara

This Thanksgiving, there’s something to be especially thankful for—gratitude itself. Emerging research shows gratitude to be one of the easiest, most effective ways to kickstart happiness and well-being. “The good news about gratitude is that it is one of the more growable character strengths—and it’s never too late,” says Giacomo Bono, Ph.D., an assistant professor at California State University, in Dominguez Hills, and co-author of Making Grateful Kids: The Science of Building Character.

Sustainable Living: Antiques Rising- discovering the "green" in brown furniture.

by Yvette C. Hammett

Fast food and fast fashion are common in this amped-up world. There’s also fast furniture—the kind that often comes in a box, assembly required. It’s made of particle board held together by toxic chemicals; it is often flimsy and it’s consuming forests at an alarming rate. But millennials love it. That’s why they’re sometimes called the IKEA generation.

herbs Plant Medicine: Ayurveda- the science of life

by Sunita Tarkunde

Ayurveda is a Sanskrit word meaning the Science of Life. There is no formula for health that works for everyone or we would have no need for medicine. Our bodies and the lives they live are all unique, and our health and wellbeing is inextricably linked to every part. The way we live our life day to day; the food we eat, the exercise we take, even the amount of traffic we sit in and our attitude about it will support or hinder our body’s ability to heal itself.
