Plain Soap as a Natural Method of Infection Prevention


It is estimated that 80 percent of communicable illnesses are spread through touch but only about 30 percent of adults wash their hands after using the toilet and still fewer wash thoroughly.

In fact, the CDC estimates that as many as 15% of all hospital patients catch some type of nosocomial infection. The vast majority of these illnesses and deaths could easily be prevented by careful, deliberate handwashing with plain soap and clean water.

Do-Sa-Do For Mindfulness


When I was 12, one of my best friends was a square dancer.
