regularly, and you can ask your physician for a simple Vitamin D test. Some dermatologists do main- tain that there is no safe sun ex- posure and one can make up for this deficiency by taking supple- ments. Who is correct?

relishing the warmth of the sun. When is the last time you were supine in the sun, drinking in the rays, relishing the heat on your skin? We all know the danger of being overexposed to the sun and that it is not healthy for us. According to some, avoid- ing the sun completely with sunscreen and covering up 24/7 is also not healthy for us. Reading from www.naturalbias.com, and the book The Healing Sun: Sunlight and Health in the 21st Century by Richard Hobday, avoiding sun exposure com- pletely can cause Vitamin D deficiency, and that deficiency can cause cancer, autism, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis,


osteoporosis, and more debilitating dis- eases. It is estimated that 80% of our U.S. population is Vitamin D deficient. Vitamin D also helps support your immune system and promotes the destruc- tion of mutated cancer cells.

Your body is cradled in soft, fluffy grass and your whole being is totally connected to the earth. You can press your palms down into the ground and really feel one with the earth, then carefully open your eyes away from the sun and gaze at the lazy clouds floating by. You may like to find hikes where there are grassy, open spaces to lie down and obtain that connectedness with the earth
