Many misunderstandings and conflicts arise because of poor communication. Here is something to remember. Communication is made up of 7% spoken words; 38% of voice and tone; and 55% body language. This is SO important to keep in mind when you are talking to anyone – in your workplace or at home. How you present yourself and how calm and open your demeanor are far more important than the actual words. If you keep this as a reminder to you and those around you (family, coworkers) it will help you all get along better!

Our homes are filled with hidden toxins – kitchen and bathroom cleaners, bleach, ammonia, carpet shampoos, and this is only the beginning. They are absorbed through our skin and lungs as we “clean”. Our children and pets spend much of their time on that floor that was just cleaned with a chemical cleaner, which gets ingested or absorbed through their skin. Bleach and ammonia leave a toxic residue and hazardous fumes. There are natural alternatives available for all our cleaning needs! Kick the chemicals out of your home and use a natural, concentrated citrus product like Orange TKO that is very effective and versatile, smells great and costs less to use! – Lona Larter, www.tkoorange.com
