My resolution for 2013 is to practice the 3 R's.  Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.   To reduce waste, reuse materials and recycle where appropriate.   This year, I intend for my personal recycling program to take off. Most items used every day - especially containers - are made of materials that can be used over and over again.  Recycling is collecting used materials that would otherwise be thrown away and breaking down and remaking these materials into new products.  Recycling saves resources and sends less trash to landfills and incinerators.  I need to get serious and really commit myself to "rethink" old habits of throwing certain things away.   I find myself cringing when someone in my household tosses a bottle, can, jar, or even an old magazine issue.      So, what is your #1 recycling challenge?   I need a designated area / totes or containers for paper, plastic, glass & aluminum. And to place it i...

CITRONELLA Cymbopogon nardus PLANT PART USED grass AROMA PROFILE floral, with grassy, green notes AROMATHERAPY BENEFITS protecting   Because of its association with insect repellency, citronella is usually overlooked as an aromatherapy oil.  That's a shame because citronella possesses warming and activating qualities on both the physical and mental levels. Physically, citronella will produce a subtle sensation of warmth when properly diluted in a massage oil and applied to the skin. Dilute 3 drops of essential oil per teaspoon of massage oil. Using this in a friction massage may help bring relief to painful joints and muscles. Perform a simple friction massage by rubbing a targeted area vigorously until warmth is produced by the friction. The idea is to bring blood and soothing warmth into the affected area. Combine citronella with eucalyptus to heighten this effect, or use lavender to make the effect more moderate and balancing. Like its cl...
