New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Red
Incense of the day: Geranium Today is Earth Day, a day to raise consciousness about humanity's impact on the planet. More specifically, this day addresses how our day-to-day practices affect our long-term changes for survival. The single most appropriate action anyone can do on Earth Day is to plant a tree. Every freshly planted tree helps refresh the oxygen supply in the atmosphere, filters pollution, and undoes a portion of the damage that industrial toxins cause. Since not everyone can plant a tree, particularly those who live in apartments, the next best thing someone can do to honor this day and to honor the magical life is to start a small indoor garden. A small box and a plant light can help grow small herbs such as peppermint that you can use in tea and in regular practice-and the small plants still filter the air within your apartment, making your own space healthier. |
