Native American Medicinal Plants and Remedies

April 17, 2021 By Autumn

When it comes to medicinal plants and natural remedies, we often reach to the Far East and look for the ancient knowledge coming from that part of the world. Yet, Native Americans have relied on these methods of healing throughout their history. They also observed animals and paid attention to the plants that sick animals were consuming, in order to better understand potential benefits. Many of these plants, fortunately, don’t require special conditions and are suited for growing in the backyard.

Key Takeaways:

  • Native Americans ground up blackberry roots then mixed them with honey to help with a variety of ailments, including sore stomachs and throats.
  • The first to use this in medicine, Native Americans turned to dandelion leaves to alieve sore throats and help with constipation.
  • On top of being used to lessen join pain, the Native Americans also considered Rosemary a sacred plant.

“Before modern medicine remedies were available, the tribes had mastered the use of medicinal plants.”

April 15, 2021 By Autumn

Many people claim that they are environmentally conscious about the impact they have on environment, but they often say that acting in a beneficial way requires too much effort. There are simple steps that you can take that will not make your life inconvenient. You can refuse to use plastic, whether it is in the form of bags, or packaging. Minimize the amount of food your throw away and sort the items that you are disposing of.

Key Takeaways:

  • In this time period getting a reusable face mask can be helpful. Washing one or getting one with filters can help reduce waste.
  • Using a shopping bag that can be taken on every trip is important for reducing our plastic waste.
  • Water usage is a big problem many don’t think about when they’re at home. Sort trash if you can and don’t throw away good food.

“They say that a person should drink up to 2 liters of water a day (depending on weight). If you are used to drinking water, consider buying a reusable bottle, and take water with you – it’s easy. By the way, such bottles and mugs can be great eco-friendly gifts.”

How To Choose Your Perfect Color Palette

April 13, 2021 By Autumn

During the pandemic, many people found themselves with extra free time and it should not be a surprise to find out that some of that free time was spent on home improvement. One of the most budget friendly ways to refresh the look of your dwelling is to put some new paint on it. When you decide which paint to use, you should not shy away from starting with one of your favorite colors as a base. Then you can pick complimentary colors that can be used as accent paint.

Key Takeaways:

  • First you want to pick your favorite color and you can use your clothing choices as inspiration for this.
  • You don’t want to only use warm or cool tones because the room will feel flat or stuck in one direction.
  • You can ultimately choose what you want but a little light contrast with color opposites will bring a room to life.

“Think about your hair: You have your base hair color, then you make some brighter and some maybe even darker (do people still do this? This analogy might be circa “Friends” from 1996). But you don’t want them to be EXACTLY lighter and darker colors, that doesn’t look natural, you want a little color variance so it looks richer.”

My Five L’s For Embracing A Positive Future

April 11, 2021 By Autumn

Key attitude towards your better tomorrow is learning to embrace the future. I have five pillars that I’ve set in my path towards this state of mind. First, you need to fully appreciate the life that you have and which was given to us. In the center of it is love, which we experience from the first moments of our existence. Learning is another fundamental thing that we have in life and it never stops. You can follow, but be prepared to lead and think about the legacy that you are leaving behind.

Key Takeaways:

  • Love is critical to our mental health. Getting love from others, loving ourselves, and putting love into the world makes everything smoother.
  • Reading and committing to learning will take extra motivation. It’s critical for growing and being the best version of ourselves.
  • We might not think of ourselves as natural leaders. Sometimes others need someone to be strong and we are more capable of inspiring than we think.

“Despite the challenges we face at every age and stage of life, the reality is we have an indeterminate time to give all we can to help others. That gift of gratitude is reliant on deep self-awareness and an intense understanding that our greatest strength is what we do to improve our natural world in service to all living others. Taking care of our lives with good health practices is always a good idea.”
