News we can use 🙂

During the holiday season, it’s common to purchase more food than we can consume. This presents an opportunity to use leftovers creatively, reducing food waste and its impact on climate change. My most recent podcast Episode #72 (Judith Guerra Wellness Connections) discusses what COMPOSTING is and why we want to participate in taking steps to employ this sustainable method of climate action to help with climate challenges. The NRDC  (the Natural Resources Defense Council) states what COMPOSTING provides: “positive ways that protect the planet’s wildlife and wild places, and to ensure the rights of all people to clean air, clean water and healthy communities.”

Every October Breast Cancer Awareness Month is brought to our attention with charities, news, and support.

This year I am introducing the Reach to Recovery app, which you can download, or you can become a volunteer as a survivor of this enormous challenge. Oftentimes when we can speak with someone who has traveled and survived a difficult health challenge, it gives us strength and hope for our own challenging journey.

Look at the YouTube video below and decide for yourself how to take steps in getting support by reviewing what is available.

For details and to download the app click the link below.
