I'd like to introduce you to my friend and colleague, Kathy Agati, otherwise known as the Digestive Diva. We both serve on our Health and Wellness Committee at the Morris County Chamber. I've gotten to know her in a way I hadn't before and I like her. While our work overlaps, we each hone in on our own specialties. You all know me as the "Count Chemicals not Calories" girl and the impact they have on your health. Kathy is a certified gluten free Practitioner who specializes in food sensitivities and auto-immune disease.
I subscribed to Kathy's "A Letter from Grandma", a daily email covering all different topics. I really liked this one as it had content that I wanted you know about. And yes, it's about a topic that is close to my heart.
Native American proverb
:
"Treat the Earth well. It was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children.”
For too long now we have been committing chemical warfare on Mother Earth. She is not happy with us. The consequences get more dire with every passing year.
I know there is a lot that needs to be fixed and as an individual you may feel powerless in the face of it all. The temptation is to throw up your hands and decide this is a matter best handled by governments and corporations.
Coronavirus has taught us differently. We changed the way we did things for 2 months and the earth came back to life in ways we haven’t seen in decades. Mother Earth is apparently a very forgiving soul.
The truth is, everything you do matters.
Let’s start with changing the way we clean our homes.
