Got Grit?

Many people use the new year to establish priorities, set goals and launch personal development projects. “This time,” they say, “I’m really going to do it.” For most, those goals are forgotten before the first spring blossoms appear. Too often, people believe they don’t have what it takes to accomplish what they need. Not enough [...]

    • Vinny Barreca: The Mediterranean Harmony Massage Spa Gaucin, located in Orange County at California’s only five-star, five-diamond resort (The St. Regis Monarch Beach), is a hands-down winner in feel-good massage – literally. If you think two hands are better than one… what would you think of four? Oh yes, that’s exactly what you get in this beyond-blissful body massage. Two therapists perform a choreographed massage in harmony as your mind wonders, “Can this really be happening to me, or am I just fantasizing?” The treatment uses hydrating Chardonnay grapeseed oil throughout the massage and ends with a fig and cassis body-butter back massage along with Spa Gaucin’s signature warm back compress. Afterwards, you’re sure to feel fabulously spoiled. And, if you have the good fortune to be staying at this lush hotel, you can gently glide to your room and sleep like a baby. http://ispatherapy.blogspot.com

    • Organic Spa Magazine » Blog Archive Sound Therapy: A Really Good Vibe: [...] Jonathan Goldman, director of the Sound Healers Association (www.healingsounds.com), thinks that sound is the original creative force. Everything in the world is sound. Everything vibrates. Every part of the body vibrates. Our body is like an orchestra, and our voice is the most powerful instrument for healing—which is why many practitioners teach their clients techniques for chanting and singing. It’s not just the frequency of the sound produced that induces healing; the intent of the person producing the sound brings about healing— whether it’s the healer or the healee emitting the sound.

    • Green Shoes Made of Earth

      From the goddess of well-being in Celtic mythology, Ahnu Footwear balances work and play, as well as business goals with social responsibility. Ahnu uses certified post-consumer recycled paper in company catalogs and packaging, and their nonprofit, earthy commitment is visible throughout the brand. The Sequoia ($100) hiker I wear now is breathable with mesh uppers and full support around the ankle. A snug heel cup translates to superior traction on gravelly roads, packed dirt and paved roadways. The patented lacing system makes me feel like I‘m wearing ruby slippers every time I lace up those puppies. Bonus: The shock dispersal plate in the forefoot prevents toe stubs without weighing me down. Love them! www.ahnufootwear.com – Nicole Dorsey Straff

    • Kids’ Stuff: Greenie Tots

      Busy parents can sigh a breath of relief: Greenie Tots are healthy meals for kids that don’t require cooking. The brainchild of Jamie and Jalea Hemmings, who wanted to ensure their son Jayden had access to round-the-clock all-natural food, Greenie Tots are frozen entrees—meatless, and minus hormones, pesticides, and high-fructose corn syrup—that arrive straight to your doorstep in eco-friendly recyclable packaging. All Mom and Dad need to do is simply boil it or pop it in the microwave. Little ones between six and eight months can enjoy purees of organic pears, peas, carrots, and apples; while Pear and Apple Puree with Oat Cereal and Pasta Marinara with Lentils appeal to babies ready for something to chew on. The Chicken, Spinach and Cheese Quesadillas, and Macaroni and Cheese with Peas for big kids, may leave parents wishing they offered Greenies for grownups! www.greenietots.com- Alia Akkam
