go green and shaklee

---------------- Welcome ----------------

This is the fifth issue of the Yes! Go Green! newsletter from Yes!
Training and Education, LLC (aka: Cathy Theys). I promised not to
email too often...
This newsletter will be approximately once per month or two, with
information about special in person events, conference calls, and
other earthy news and tips!

---------------- What is Shaklee ----------------

Yep, Cathy is a Shaklee Distributor (http://YesTrainingAndEducation.com).
What is Shaklee? The cheapest source of the best earth friendly
products available! I'm so excited to be part of helping my family and
friends detox their home. Call my 'business line" to chat: 847 878 0374

---------------- What I'm Up To! ----------------
I compost! But what about your kids school?
Illinois sent an important bill to the Governor, SB99, allowing food scraps to be composted in Illinois. It will be nice to see businesses, organizations, and schools composting their food scraps and organic matter.

STILL on my todo list:
Getting my soil tested in my vegetable garden.
Here is a link to test sites in Illinois:
http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/soiltest/
Try your local University Extension office for other states.

(The rabbits eat my baby corn plants anyway!)

I'm still collecting data from my Kill-a-wall
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009MDBU?&tag=yestraandedu-20
And I'll keep you posted on that project!

Speaking about worries about contaminates...

Worried about heavy metals and PCBs in your fish oil?
http://content.shaklee.com/shaklee/flash/OmegaGuard.html
Shaklee tests their fish oils and does tons of research to make sure
their vitamins and supplements are the best!

New for Kids!

Put in your Shaklee order with me before the end of July, and I'll refund
your shipping! It is my goal to introduce the fantastic Green products
Shaklee has to 10 families this month, and I know you can help me
reach my goal. Just ring me, and I'll help you pick you what interests
you: green cleaners, vitamins your body can absorb, healthy beauty
products, inch-loss healthy weight products... 847 878 0374

What green cleaners does every family need?
Basic H2 super concentrated cleaner, laundry concentrate, dishwash
automatic concentrate.
(Why is everything concentrate? Not only are the ingredients earth and human friendly, but because it is concentrated it uses less water in the product, less fuel to ship it, and less plastic to create and less plastic to recycle. It also makes it much cheaper for you.) This is a good time to get some: shipping is free!

It is hard to find a sunscreen that is not toxic!
We use California Baby:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GZNGLE?ie=UTF8&tag=yestraandedu-20&...
or http://tinyurl.com/mceqnt
I find the EWG website really helpful!
The Environmental Working Group's Sunscreen Guide:
http://www.ewg.org/cosmetics/report/sunscreen09?utm_source=ss-test2&utm_...

Or skip the sunscreen. Lately people have been stopping my family on the street and asking where I got the sun hats my kids are wearing. The secret: they are not made for kids!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006N2CHA?ie=UTF8&tag=yestraandedu-20&...
or http://tinyurl.com/knmbrn
Sturdy because they are made for outdoors adults, but they work great for kids. It cinches up to fit their head, and it has a clip to keep them from loosing it when they take it off, or when the wind blows really hard! How is the hat Green (beside the greenish color)? Less sunscreen to buy (not none, but less). Reduce the number of sunscreen bottles you buy by a few this summer and that means: more money for you, less stuff to manufacture, less packaging to throw out! Use the hat year after year!

Support your family and friends who want to breastfeed. Its Green!

And in the news: it reduces the mother's risk of rheumatoid arthritis by 50 percent.

Green your menstrual period! The Diva Cup (Too taboo? Just skip this part. Questions? Email me, I'll give you a candid review!)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016B1SSU?ie=UTF8&tag=yestraandedu-20&...

Excitedly, Cathy
