Calendula is from the plant family asteraceae. Many of calendula’s historic uses are skin-
related. Calendula is a native of the Mediterranean area. Today it grows in most temperate regions of the world.
The ancient Romans gave it the name calendula because the flowers bloomed on the
first day of every month of the “calends,” their calendar. The plant with the bright yellow
and orange flowers was later given another name in honor of the mother of Jesus: Mary’s
gold. Later this was shortened to marigold.
Historical uses
One of its first uses was to treat scorpion bites. In ..read more

Rolfing can be defined as structural integration. A central premise is that the aligned body
can balance itself better against gravity and is therefore more efficient. Human functions
such as flexibility, coordination, and physiological conditions are improved when each
individual segment of the body is aligned. This can be compared to a child’s tower of
blocks, which is more stable when each block is placed squarely upon the one below it.
Rolfing re-establishes this vital balance by stretching the fascia tissue, which is a thin
elastic membrane that covers muscles, bones, organs, and nerves ..read more

reasons. One is to document events, people, and places I don’t want to forget. Another is I
like to keep a journal to help figure out my moods as they relate to my behavior and to help
sort out my anxieties, joys, and so on. Essentially, I journal to get to know myself better.
For example, why ..read more

Here in the Rocky Mountain state of Colorado, we love our oils, almost every kind of oil applied everywhere on our bodies. We like them in our hair, especially kukui, almond, rosehip seed, and primrose oil. We like them on our faces, alone or blended; we like them around our eyes, mouths, and necks. We use them as makeup removers, cleansers, and in our baths. We like them scented, unscented, and with herbs. My Seven Exotic Oils, which includes the seven listed below, is my personal favorite blend of oils. You can use these oils alone or together in any way that suits you. Don’t let my limited ..read more

There are many, many more, but I am limiting the list to things I have personally tried.

This is a really fun way to gain insight into your innate qualities. I had my chart done by an astrologer in Boulder. Essentially, astrology uses a birth chart as a map of the positions of the planets, in relation to where you were born, and the exact ..read more
