Evita’s Favorite “Natural” Things 2009

Favorite Things

Each year around this time Oprah puts together a list of some of her “favorite” things. These are items she shares with her audience that she feels are noteworthy or that would make a great gift.

It is always great to hear about a product or idea that can make our lives easier, better or more pleasant in some way, and so this gave me an idea. As you know, one of the features of EvolvingWellness.com are natural product reviews, and so this year I wanted to put together a summary of the best natural or healthy products that I have found up to this point, and share it with you!

Whether you use any of these as a last minute gift idea, or treat yourself to some of these in the new year, I wanted to offer you a resource where you can get a quick idea of some of the most natural products out there for you and your family.

Each of these items I have come to trust, use and enjoy. Some of them even on a regular basis. Many of them I have featured in reviews here on EvolvingWellness.com and those that I have not yet, I will be doing so in the new year 2010.

Enjoy! I hope you find this list helpful or valuable in some way whether now or in the future!

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
brown paper packages tied up with strings,
these are a few of my favorite things.
