The Offline Dating Solution
Online dating can be exhausting, dangerous and demoralizing. Hours of searching profiles, followed by unsuccessful date after date can result in dating ‘burn out’. Furthermore, when it comes to online dating, you never know who you are really meeting. You have no idea about their actual age and relationship status, their true intentions or if they have a criminal history. Online dating can be extremely dangerous. This is why I recommend a professional matchmaker. An experienced matchmaker will introduce you to the right match, who is screened, and handpicked for you. Finding true love is important and hiring an experienced matchmaker with a proven track record, could be the best decision you ever make.

The Power of Homeopathy
Homeopathy has the power to change the course of life or death. On July 4th, my mom and I saved our dog from dying from anaphylaxis/poisoning from a wasp, using homeopathy. Homeopathy is energy medicine that quantum physics is just starting to explain the beautiful way it works. It has zero side effects and can work alongside prescriptions medications. It is powerful yet gentle at the same time. It is beneficial from the birth of a baby all the way to transitioning to death and everywhere in between. It can treat small first aid issues to acute emergency situations and help reverse chronic diseases that supposedly “have no cure”. In my opinion, it is the most powerful natural medicine known to man.

Protect Our Planet For Our Youth
For International Youth Day, let’s think about what we can do to protect our planet for our youth and future generations! We must replace toxic chemicals and pesticides with natural alternatives whenever possible. These are destroying our lakes, rivers and the soil our food grows in. We should reduce single-use plastics, so much of which has made its way to our oceans. Do your part by using natural cleaners at home and at work! Using a concentrate that you add your own water to, like Orange TKO, can save thousands of single-use bottles from our landfills and oceans!
