10 Quick ways to reduce your
Bills:
1/ save at least 14% off your
hydro bill by hanging your laundry up to air dry instead of using your electric
clothes dryer. Use clotheslines or hang your clothes on hangers first so that
they keep the right shape while air drying inside around your home or outside
on a clothes line.
2/ When you order drive thru
food, ask for tap water or soda water
which most fast food chains will provide with your food order at no cost.
3/ Stop visiting the malls.
Reserve your visits to shopping malls for
those times that you have something specific that you have consciously chosen
to buy based on your own planned decision, not based on advertising or peer
pressure or wistful window shopping.
4/ Start taking small chunks
of peeled raw garlic and/or peeled raw ginger as part of your health regimen.
These raw ingredients when used as supplements, can radically improve your
body’s natural ability to fight off viruses and other bacteria. Garlic breath
will be gone by morning if you swallow it the night before. Raw ginger can be
used during the day anytime, as there is no offensive odor from taking it at
anytime.( Always seek out medical advice from licensed medical professionals. This blog is intended for conversational purposes and accepts no liability for any ideas discussed in this blog post or any other part of this blog)
5/ Instead of spending big
money on over the counter stomach remedies like antacids or heartburn soothers,
try just drinking more room temperature water. Tap water, as long as it is safe
and clean is very effective at improving your body’s ability to naturally
regulate healthy digestion. A lot of antacids simply mask symptoms of unhealthy
eating which are easily fixed by simply drinking more regular clean tap water
at room temperature.
6/ Use inner means to improve
the texture of your skin instead of buying expensive skin care products. You
can easily save hundreds or thousands of dollars each year just by addressing an
internalized method of healthy skin care.
First of all, drink at least
500 ml of room temperature clean water per day. If you want to drink more, go
for it!
Maintain your body’s supply
of Vitamins C and D. Ask your licensed medical professional for the correct
dosage and type of supplements he/she recommends for both Vitamins C and D. Both
vitamins C and D are now usually available also in a chewable form.
Regularly eat basic simple
fresh produce such as apples and carrots and locally grown cucumbers, which are
usually not very expensive. No reason to buy exotic pricey brands! Basic apples
in season should be well priced and at a healthy ripeness.
Clean your skin daily with
basic skin cleansers such as natural soap bars from the Bulk Barn or simple
bottled cleansers such as hydrogen peroxide solutions. Those kind of bottled
cleansers can be used with simple balls of cotton. Always be sure to read the
labels and follow the instructions posted on the bottle.
Maintain clean facial
sleeping arrangements by washing pillows and pillowcases regularly. This habit
ensures that your pillow cases are absorbing excess oil from your skin while
you sleep instead of spreading dirt or germs.
Perhaps this point is
obvious….but always wash your face with fresh clean washcloths and towels.
Germs and dirt are easily bleached away if you use and wash with white towels
and washcloths. Keep your skin healthy by keeping all your towels and linens clean and fresh.
7/ When it comes to pricey
shampoo and conditioners from hair salons, it definitely pays to shop around.
The Bulk Barn carries a shampoo and conditioner bar of hardened soap that has
no wasteful packaging and is made from pure and simple ingredients. It is
gentle on coloured hair and easy on sensitive skin types. It is priced under $3
per bar.
8/ Natural and low priced
simple moisturizers. There are several basic moisturizers which last a very
long time and are usually priced well below brand name moisturizers. Natural
moisturizers like coconut oil or olive oil are simple and healthy and good for
your environment. They can be used sparingly for both skin and hair nourishment
to add shine and smoothness. Coconut oil is the higher priced choice of the
list, but a little bit goes a long way.
Basic items from the dollar store such as
white petroleum jelly and/or bottled mineral oil can also be used to moisturize
the skin, but again, they need to be used sparingly and kept safely away from
children.
9/ Realize the big time power
available for free from the Bible. Yes, it really IS that simple. Save the
hundreds of dollars you may be spending on the latest guru or yoga class and
start respecting the simple power of the written words of the bible. Reading the bible aloud on a regular basis
will help motivate you, comfort, heal, direct and refresh you mentally,
emotionally and spiritually.
10/ Stay away from “friends”
who love debt. Stop hanging around with friends with “out of control” spending
habits. Control your wallet with your conscious choices. You can’t control
other people’s choices, but you can most certainly control your own spending by
choosing your friends carefully.
Blessings and Peace.
