After all of those rainy days, it’s so nice to be doused in sunshine! The kids are already getting that rosy glow (no matter how much sunblock I slather on their bodies) and I’m still searching for a swimsuit that makes me look like I did back in college. But I have this sneaky suspicion that it’s not going to happen. If you are wondering what all the cool moms are wearing to the pool this summer then make sure you check out our article on summer style. But no matter what you wear make sure that you turn off that television and get outside to enjoy this beautiful weather. You can even throw some tofu (yes, tofu) on the grill and mix up some tropical drinks for a summery treat. You can also prepare some delicious raw food to go along with the meal. It’s great for your body, as well as the planet. And when it’s time to come back indoors, remember to keep the dirt outside where it belongs.

This month is also a perfect time to slow down the pace and have some fun with the kids. Create some summer journals to record all of your fun art and activities during the next few months. It will be a treasure to look back on later. It’s also a great time to focus on you for a change. Rediscover what gives you pleasure and dive right in, perhaps a walk in the moonlight or a special spa day. This issue has some great ideas on perfect spa ingredients that are available right in your own kitchen! Don’t forget to check out your personality prescription and do eight great things this month!

And as always, keep living it just the way you are!
