Spirit of Generosity

ByPamela Wood Browne

I saw Christmas lights today and thought, “Already? It’s not even Thanksgiving!” Then of course there’s the folks getting ready to do their Christmas shopping. I’m so not in tune with it, but noticing a blog post reminded me that it might be a good idea for me to mention my favorite healing items for those who wish to bring comfort and wellness to others in their lives:
