We have limited space for everything we could possibly sell you. So, I’m going to be posting more in here for you to see at your leisure. I will be compiling various Youtube videos and you can see them here. If you have any questions, or you want any of the items you see, please email me (info@begood2motherearth.net). I will get back to you with total price (including shipping) and then if you want the items,  I will send you a google checkout invoice. It’s that simple! Google works like Paypal, and accepts all major credit cards.

The Etsy shoppe is full of wonderful things! There are many items that are under $15. Right now I’m going to extend my Earthday sale until Sunday April 25th. Anything $15 and up is now $5.00 off (taken off invoice) so if you wanted White Buffalo Calf Woman she’s normally $30 you can get her for $25! What a savings! You can also combine lower priced items in order to get the five dollar savings! Please visit http://www.etsy.com/shop/ravenshadowhawk to see what items are still available!

You know, it’s hard enough to try to run a business online and not get lost in cyberspace. There are so many wonderful shops out there, and keeping yourself on top of things is important. I have been using Mal’s E-commerce for quite sometime with out any problems. Suddenly, I started getting error messages from my Google checkout site, and when I emailed Mal, he said something about a Security Issue?!? He never posted anything on the forum, nor did he let any of his multitude of users know what was going on (grumble here). Is that the type of service I want to entrust my sales to? Nope! So after much research, I went through a site recommended by Google  called FatFreeCarts. For anyone looking for a change, it’s pretty basic, just fill in the blanks, it generates the code to put on your pages. If you use google or paypal, this is the perfect cart for you! And, it’s free!

If you’ve ordered from me in the past few days or even week, I do apologize. If ever there a problem, call me or email me so I can help you out! Thanks!

A new line of candles will be available soon! It’s a wonderful line of soy candles, and so easy to purchase. All candles are 9 oz. hexagon shaped glass jars with gold coloured caps. I have been testing them out and love them! So strong, I can smell them throughout my entire home. They burn longer, and cleaner than your typical candles. Each candle is just $10.00! I will be listing them for sale soon!

Spring is almost upon us. I see hints of grass starting to peek through melted snow. The air seems cleaner, the climate; warmer. When I step out into the day, I can hardly wait for Spring to be in full swing.

With the changing of the seasons, many find their spirit becomes more active, like they’re becoming a live once again. What occurs without also occurs within. Sometimes, people are unsure of how to begin to renew their souls. Sometimes, they feel “stunted”.

That’s where spiritual services can help. By realigning your energy systems, such as what occurs in Reiki, you allow your inner chi to flow more freely. It opens you to new possibilities and ideas; sparking your inner flame.

Perhaps a spiritual counseling session is in order. Spiritual counseling assists us in overcoming emotional blocks so that we may be happier and more productive in our lives. Through various techniques discussed with a Spiritual counselor you can find new ways to achieve spiritual goals for your greater good.

If you feel as though something is missing in your life, Shamanic Healing may be something to consider. Often times during moments of extreme stress in our lives, parts of our inner self “hide”. It is a defense mechanism that few are aware of. We realize that something is missing in our lives. For example, maybe you suffered from a traumatic relationship, and now you find yourself unable to give or receive love again. You may feel less inspired, non-communicative, resentful. Shamanic healing can bring you back together so that you may move forward.

It may be time for a ceremony. Perhaps a fresh smudging/blessing of your house will help get the home energy flowing positively. Maybe a renewal of vows with your beloved or a family celebration is in order.

There are many ways to renew your spirit and prepare for the year ahead. We spend so much time cleaning our yards, painting our homes, washing our cars to get off the winter sludge, why neglect the inner self?

I’m very happy with the changes made to the Mother Earth Market website. Now each page is cleaner, and easier to navigate along with clickable “Return to the Top” functions so you don’t have to scroll up and down as much. Also, for Soy Candles, Bath Salts and Handmade Soaps, individual pages are linked to them to show you scents available and descriptions of those scents. I will be updating them more during this week. When things in the “What’s New” area transfer over, the scents will be linked as well so as not to clutter up the shopping pages. Enjoy the new pages, and as always, anything you don’t see, please email me or call, I’m sure I can find it for you!

Many Blessings,

Rev. Kimberly

When you go to shop, you’re overwhelmed by the variety of available stores, brands, sizes, colours… it can be very exasperating to say the least. People tend to become “numb” to the idea of where their items come from and how these items are made.

When mass marketing stores like Walmart, Target, Dollar Stores came into power, people as a whole changed their shopping habits. Quantity overtook quality. Mass produced clothes to toys to even the food you put on your table. You have many selections, but have given up on originality, quality and a sense of connection with whom you bought from.

It isn’t easy to divert your attention from those products when advertising uses catchy tunes, flashy commercials, famous actors and sports stars to endorse products. We have become gluttons in our shopping styles.

But, it can change. You can change. The World indeed can change. 
Handmade items are making a comeback because people are looking for new spins on things and realizing the quality that goes into those handmade goods. Think about a mass produced sweater… now compare it to a hand knit sweater. Which would you prefer? I know I’d choose the hand knit sweater. It lasts longer, and it has more character than a mass produced sweater that often does not meet the expectations I would expect where quality is concerned. I have sweaters that I wore as a small child that my grandmother knit me. I then put those sweaters on my children and am saving them for their children. You see, things were made to last, and the stitches were cast with love.

When you buy something handmade or local, there’s a face, not a machine that goes with that item. You earn a sense of pride that you have done something good for yourself and the small hand made business you bought it from. You have something original and of a special quality that you would not receive from a chain store.

Buying local is pretty self explanatory as well. When you buy from a local business you’re putting revenue back into your local market. Money stays where it should, and everyone thrives. Small business owners give back to their communities in many ways and get to know their clientele on a more personal level then most big businesses. You gain a rapport with your customer base, and you become an anchor in the local community.

Eco conscious buying is as important as local and handmade. When you buy from a green certified business you know that that company and YOU are leaving a smaller carbon foot print, thus helping renew natural resources. When you see a Green Certified business, don’t just take for granted that because they have the seal, they follow the guidelines, but do a little homework. For example, does said business practice what they preach? Things like minimal, recycled packaging, items they use in their products, etc.

Making small changes to how you buy things doesn’t have to happen overnight. Just take a personal challenge. Buy yourself one item from a local, handmade, green business and see what you think. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised, and you will find that you’ll want to continue to buy this way.
