Priscilla Woolworth's Newsletter #73

If we aren't careful, we can be easily knocked off balance by the persistent and overwhelming amount of information and news...

available to us at every moment. Living gratefully offers another way to approach life, one that is rooted in intentional appreciation, and living in alignment with your values.

Hello Friends,

Welcome to all new subscribers and a heartfelt thank you to all paid subscribers! I know I’m not alone in feeling overwhelmed by the constant stream of news, especially when much of it is discouraging. That is why I find it essential to step away, taking intentional breaks, and focusing on what truly restores me. Nothing grounds me more than a walk in nature. It never fails to re-center me.

In this issue, I’m finally sharing the first of several Best Brands Cheat Sheets. Copy, paste and print it up and keep it in your wallet. Or instead, take a photo and keep it on your phone. Other stories are about the EcoVillages around the world and how they are growing in popularity; how someone is Stepping Up to fight Climate Change; a resource of recordings of Nature Sounds to relax to; an interview I gave on Gardenista and what I’ve been Reading-Watching-Listening to this past month and a lovely short film about beautiful beehives from around the world. Onwards!

#1-Best Brands Cheat Sheet

These brands are the ones that are most widely available at most markets. A few can only be ordered online. This list is of the healthiest and safest brands on the market. I cross referenced the information using trusted resources, in particular Consumerlab.com and EWG.org
