Recently I was talking to my mom about the newest thing I’m thinking of trying. It’s suppose to balance the pH of your water, along with add electrolytes and minerals. (see link) She asked, “How can you afford to take all of these things?” The truth is, financially I can’t really. I’m stretched as thin [...]

Elizabeth Gilbert: Olé!!

Posted on October 28, 2009 by Sarah Keturah

I got this video from “Creative Chronic Babes” and found it appropriate for just about anyone. Elizabeth Gilbert is funny, soothing and inspiring. Although you may not end up ROFL, it’s still a must see if you enjoy a great speaker and want to feel inspired. Sit back and enjoy.

WHEN DRUG THERAPIES AND ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES DON’T WORK

Posted on September 20, 2009 by Sarah Keturah

What Smoking and Rheumatoid Arthritis have in common

Posted on July 23, 2009 by Sarah Keturah

I always knew I didn’t like smoke and I often offended people when I spoke up about it. Now I wish I had simply done a better job at avoiding second-hand smoke all together.
