Housework can cause asthma.

Unfortunately this news doesn't give a free pass to those of us who already clean our houses using non-toxic products, but it is a definite heads-up for anyone who still relies on the conventional sprays to keep their house shining clean.

Here in the store we carry the Mrs. Meyer cleaning products - doing the dishes in a haze of lavender brings a whole new dimension to the chore!  There are other lines of healthy cleaning products - give them a try.  Generally, they are comparable in price, and far, far better for us and for the environment.

Who needs chemical air fresheners anyway?  Or even the synthetic herbal ones? Buy one of the lovely terracotta rings that go on your lamp, and the mellow glow of your house in the evening will carry with it the sublime aroma of whichever essential oil you choose to put in there! Or choose a soy candle made with pure essential oils.
