We had such an amazing summer, with just the right amount of rain and sun so that while normally by this point, lawns would be brown and plants drooping, this year, everything is still green and vibrant. While I walked and marveled at nature’s beauty, I thought about this month’s editorial focus on our planets health. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed thinking about what it’s going to take to turn things around to save the Earth. But here’s the good news: Millions of individuals and thousands of organizations worldwide are currently working together to implement solutions that support the global campaign to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. Brita Belli reports on the practical actions now underway, spearheaded by far-sighted environmental leaders and rallying citizens here and abroad. You’ll find a hopeful perspective in our feature article, Shaping Our Future: Global Priorities for Earth’s Environment, on page 22. Feeling frazzled about getting everything done, I almost didn’t go for my walk, even though it’s a beautiful day. I know am more productive when I take care of myself but it can be so easy to talk ourselves out of things we know are good for us. Knowing I would be inspired by walking, I used that as my own personal motivator. Most of us use whatever encouragement we can find to do the things we know we should do. In these difficult days of the economy, it is all the more important than ever to stay motivated for those who are searching for work. Please read How to Stay in Control When Unemployed by John Koenig on page 30 for some great tips. He reminds us to do many things that we know are obvious, but can be so difficult to make ourselves do. I’ve had such success with acupuncture, it’s great to read that it can be good for children too. Integrative health is not just for adults. I have seen some kids at the office where I get my acupuncture, and always wondered how they get them to be still and patient while needles are inserted. Dr Shawna E.M. Snyder explains how she does it in Acupuncture for Children on page 29. Turns out there aren’t any secret needles just for kids, but by using acupressure, aromatherapy and magnet therapy, the children leave her office sleeping better and being able to participate in more activities. And on page 20, Kathleen Barnes reminds us that Chiropractic care can be used by all, to treat a variety of ailments in Chiropractic Care Help for Common Complaints. Everything we do counts in saving our earth, so please join me in remembering to grab your own reusable beverage container and shopping bags the next time you head out the door, and then keep adding eco-actions large and small to your days. You’ll find plenty of ideas in this month’s issue. When we take better care of our own well-being, we’re also apt to take better care of Mother Earth. She’s our mama, here with infinite, unconditional love for our own and future generations. Holy Molé Maureen Cary, Publisher Rick Hotton
