people use it topically, but you can get faster results if you also ingest tablets, Zand explains. How to use: Take three tablets
orally three to five times a day for the first 24 to 48 hours; apply topically throughout the day. Note: Never apply arnica to an open wound.
Summer bummers: Bites, stings and cuts To the rescue: Hydrogen peroxide, yarrow tincture and latex-free bandages
“First, clean the bite, sting or cut with hydrogen peroxide,” advises Flint. “Then follow with a few drops of yar- row tincture, which acts as an astrin- gent to pull the tissue together. It’s safe to use on open wounds.” How to use: Douse the affected
areas with peroxide, then apply six to 12 drops of yarrow tincture.

Big Push by Paul Bond
Paul Bond’s magic realism art illuminates a dreamlike world where anything is possible, as he deftly juxtaposes and rearranges common elements to convey universal spiritual or metaphysical ideas. Sometimes, his paintings are simply uplifting illusions, expressing the whimsical, surreal and fantastic side of life. They are always soothing, visual meditations that delight the imagination and stir the soul.
Rearranging familiar objects gives Bond the visual symbols he uses as a language to reflect an emotion or thought he’s entertaining at the moment. “Often, a painting is born from something randomly seen from a car window or a line in a novel or a song,” he explains. “If it stirs my curiosity, it finds its way into my work.”
About Big Push, he says, “This was inspired by a photo I had taken of my favorite model in a nearby park, looking down from a swing. I immediately hit on the idea of her swinging at a ridiculously high altitude—joyful, with unflinching confidence and courage.”
