    Exclusively yoga

    Is there anyone here who does only yoga for exercise? How do you feel? I have some acquaintances who do nothing but yoga and I thought that was a little odd. There isn't much cardio involved in yoga and I think you need both for a balanced routine.

    Heartworm treatment

    My vet recommends monthly heartworm pills every month all year round for my dogs, but I don't see how it's necessary to do it in the colder months. For the dog owners here, do you treat year round?

    Kits

    I've seen candle making kits at craft stores like Hobby Lobby. Has anybody ever bought one? I would love to start making my own candles because I burn through so many of them, but I don't want to make something cheesy and I'm not sure the kits would be the quality I'm looking for.

    Ionic detoxification

    Has anybody ever tried this? I found a spa near me that is doing this now and I'm wondering if it's legitimate and worth the money.

    Raw diet

    Does anybody here have their dog on a raw diet? I've done some research on it and most experts agree it is the very best way to feed a dog, but the work involved just seems so extensive. From what I've read, most people who do this actually have a separate deep freeze just for the dog food and...

    Downward facing dog

    This has to be my all time favorite yoga position. I could stay like that all day and stretch out my back and my legs. My husband came home from work yesterday and his back was hurting so I taught him how to do it and now he's hooked, lol. What's your favorite yoga position?

    Favorite candle brand

    What is your favorite brand of candles? I love the Yankee candles, but they can be so expensive. I have a few of them that I save for special occasions, but my everyday candles usually come from the dollar store or Walmart.

    Most of us have times when we're looking for a quick fix for lunch or dinner. A while back I stumbled across a brand of frozen meals called Amy's. They are vegetarian and all organic and delicious. They cover various ethnic cuisines such as Mexican, Indian, and Chinese. They even have organic...
