HAPPY SOLSTICE! ☀️🌎 I invite you to pause during this hectic holiday season as once again the world is renewed. It is during this holiest time of year we initiate new beginnings as we go from darkness into the light, and reflect on the symbolism of the winter solstice. 🕊 It is a beautiful time to tend the sacred light in your home, your heart, family and community. Make room for light, hope and possibility. ☀️💜❤️💚 ~ Love and LIGHT! ~ #Healthstartsathome #earthleadership #earthfocus #earth #ecofriendly #ecoconscious #sustainable #ethical #yoga_wellness_home #holistichome #ecopreneur #healthyinteriordesign #vitaldesignltd #healthyhappyhome #partofthesolution #designforgood #consciousconsumer #createeveryday #createyourlife #inspiredbyplace #sacredspace #home #holistic #love #happiness #intuitivewellness #theyogaofhome #vitaldesignltd #outsideismybestside https://www.instagram.com/p/CJEh1gIDwgW/?igshid=mm3o5bg1lzmq

Water Purity Touted As Key To Catskill Kombucha Recipe~ Cheryl Terrace made her move to the beautiful Catskills 10 years ago, settling in Andes. She quickly embraced the rural lifestyle, but discovered one drawback — no kombucha to be found. Out of desperation, Cheryl started brewing her own and discovered that her kombucha far surpassed the commercial brands. One of the reasons for the difference, she said, is the amazing Catskill Mountain water. “I started sharing my home-brewed kombucha with friends and word spread. My brand — Catskill Kombucha — has grown organically (pun intended) and I now have wonderful loyal customers, which makes me so happy. I proselytize probiotics!” Cheryl, who has degrees in psychology and design, is fascinated with natural environments - inside and outside. Her primary occupation is working as a “holistic interior designer” in New York City (vitaldesignltd.com). She specializes in helping to create healthy home environments and Cheryl views her foray into kombucha production as a natural extension of her philosophy. “My passion for health extends to all aspects of my life — including yoga, meditation and eating and drinking super healthy food - kombucha included,” she explained. Drink for your health Kombucha is a tangy, naturally effervescent tea that is both detoxifying and energizing. It contains lots of enzymes, B-vitamins and billions of living probiotics. Cheryl said that a growing number of studies have shown that our overall health is intrinsically connected to the health of our microbiome - our gut health – that affects everything from our immune system to our serotonin levels (our happy hormone). That’s why the tagline for Catskill Kombucha is ‘It takes guts to be healthy and happy!” She explained that fermented foods have been used medicinally around the world for centuries, and their myriad health benefits have been long understood. Proponents recommend making fermented foods part of a regular diet to help support both immune and digestive health, among other benefits. “In our increasingly toxic world I find comfort in old-fashioned values of making super healthy fermented food and drink,” #happyhealthyhomesteading https://www.instagram.com/p/B6D8CJzARyl/?igshid=172dnynf8v2sw

When I am among the trees, especially the willows and the honey locust, equally the beech, the oaks and the pines, they give off such hints of gladness. I would almost say that they save me, and daily. I am so distant from the hope of myself, in which I have goodness, and discernment, and never hurry through the world but walk slowly, and bow often. Around me the trees stir in their leaves and call out, “Stay awhile.” The light flows from their branches. And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say, “and you too have come into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled with light, and to shine.” #maryoliver ~When I Am Among The Trees #nature #grateful #outdoorphins #happy #autumn https://www.instagram.com/p/B3VAf2rAA2c/?igshid=cl4sfbynbtgv
