NOVEMBER GREEN TIP: GREEN, CLEAN, AND DEFINITELY NOT MEAN

As we head into the celebrations of the holiday season, people think about beauty.

We take extra care preparing ourselves for a party, put special effort into wrapping gifts, and fuss over the table and foods created for this special time of year.

Why let ordinary chores, like cleaning the house, interrupt the fun ?

Instead, transform cleaning from ho hum to ho ho ho with items from Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day GINGERBREAD Collection.

For all those dedicated souls who bought green cleaning products because they were noble and wanted to help save the earth, the suffering is over. Green is gorgeous.

Mrs. Meyer's products are natural, safe, and keep humans and homes happy by using aromatic essential oils. I use the lavender line in my office and my clients LOVE the scent - it works perfectly with the soothing atmosphere I've created.

The Gingerbread collection includes:
---Gingerbread Holiday Hand Care Set - Hand soap and hand lotion
---Holiday Clean-up Kit - 4 Products
Room Freshner, Liquid Dish Soap, Countertop Spray and All Purpose Cleaner
---Gingerbread Candle

I found these all at the Boise Co-op, if you live elsewhere check with your favorite local natural foods store. If you can't buy locally, you can find the products online at: http://www.mrsmeyers.com/.

Why is a chiropractor recommending cleaning products?

Because there can be a connection between your mood and what you use to keep your house clean. And this connection is found through your nervous system.

There are twelve nerves that emerge from or enter directly from your skull, the cranial nerves, and the Olfactory is the very first one. It carries the impulses for the sense of smell from the body to the brain. The brain then processes the information and creates a response (fire, a baby, the ocean -- all have their own scents and the brain has the appropriate response for each).

You already know all the good reasons to choose cleaning products that are toxin-free, they are better for your health.

Now you can enjoy a new reason to buy something that smells wonderful - use the time spent cleaning as a chance to do something beautiful for your brain.

And then when you are done cleaning, take your beautiful brain out to a holiday party!
