The following health and wellness-inspired gifts are great to give to your loved ones, or as a special gift to yourself!

Aging with Grace: How People Age Today vs. Fifty Years Ago
By: Charlie Fletcher We’ve all seen them: breathtakingly beautiful Hollywood starlets who’ve been around for decades, and yet they still look as gorgeous as they did 30 years ago—if not better. But it’s not just Hollywood. If you look through old family photos, you’re probably going to be shocked at how different women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond looked then compared to how women of the same age look today.

Want to start composting in 2020? Here’s What You Need to Know.
by Sara Weinreb Composting is one of my favorite sustainable-living habits. Before I started composting, it seemed a bit intimidating, and to be honest… kind of gross. The truth is, I can’t imagine my home without it now! It’s simple and has radically changed my approach to trash. Now we can go weeks without taking out a bag of trash since nothing is rotting in the bin, and I know I am doing something great for the environment.

6 Common Facts and Myths About Organic Food
Source By: Francesca Singer As you cruise the aisles of the grocery store, you reach for a box of crackers and then pause. An almost identical box of crackers sits next to it on the shelf, but this one bears the “certified organic” label and costs a buck more. What do you do? Is it irresponsible (to your body, your kids, or your planet) for you go for the cheaper option? Or are you just falling for a good marketing ploy? We’ve all been there.
