Comment on Treating Cancer Without Chemo by Paul

Hi Cathy and Paul here. We really appreciate the info on yurt living as we are a part of a community here in Michigan looking to begin building a yurt community.
I have been working in the Alternative health area for over 10 years as a bio-energetic/bio-electronic research. Here is my website http://www.basicstowellness.com. Please read the section on geo-pathic stress as this issue in my research and others have correlated difficult dis-ease processs at greater than 95% to geo-pathic stress. I would be happy to help you more fully understand this issue.
blessings of peace and joy

Comment on A Health Challenge by Jessica

My initial thought when you told me that Kala was going to seek alternative treatments rather than traditional treatments was that you had gone too far in your “hippiness.” This post and chatting with you today changed my perspective. I would probably make similar choices in her situation. I’m broke at the moment, but donation coming soon…

Comment on Loving the Freecycle by shiva

The odds of me having something in somebody’s “wanted” list are pretty dang low. When I have something to offer on freecycle I offer it. I’m not a freecycle leech…kind of jumping to conclusions there Art.

The Gmail label systems sounds like a good idea, however you do seem to be a bit of a leech. The point of FreeCycle is not just to have your ears out for freebies and filter out any requests that people have. So please stop beeing a “Free-Cycle-Loader” and also keep an eye out for “wanted” emails as well.

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the essay. I live in an apartment on my parent’s property, and my father and I were just discussing sustainable living yesterday. We’ve made some progress. I’m also enjoying exploring the rest of your blog!

Comment on Yurt FAQ by john

Hi Dana. Yes we would recommend Pacific Yurts. Really we have been pleased with the whole project. It’s done fine in storms so far..I think our peak wind was about 50mph which is quite noisy as the fabric snaps back and forth against the lattice, but it seems quite sturdy. Snow has been no problem at all..it all just slides off. The one thing that I would do differently if I had to do it over would be too look into doing my own insulation. The foil/bubble insulation works great, but I am betting I could do it myself quite a bit cheaper and it was really just big pieces of that taped together. For the options, you can do what we did and get the ones that are crucial to get when its put together (like don’t skimp on extra windows!). And then you can get add-on stuff later on like window awnings. I plan on doing a full review of our Pacific Yurt sometime soon. -john
