Have you ever wanted your very own lemon tree? Imagine in a few years time… sitting in its cool shade… a soft summer breeze is blowing and gorgeous lemons hang perfectly from the branches, calling out to you to pick them and make them into delicious lemonade. I can already tell that you’re sold on the idea! 😉
One of the things I love about this tutorial is that the process is super easy, and fun – so it’s a perfect project for kids (unlike the soap making tutorial, which sadly is definitely not kid-friendly owing to the chemicals involved!)
Another thing I love about this lemon tree tutorial is that it is finding and teaching immense value in things that we normally take for granted. We throw away the possibility of several lemon trees every time we discard a lemon that we are done with. It’s a lesson in abundance and the gifts that are all around us.
And then of course, there is the ecological angle. Whether or not you believe in global warming, you can surely agree on one thing: We cut down trees way faster than we are growing them, deforestation is a problem and forests are a good thing. Cool, green leafiness is a good thing. Trees “clean” the air we breathe, and that’s something we can’t really have too much of. So this is one small way in which you can do something to be proud of. Years ago, I worked for a forestry company and personally planted thousands of trees. Although it was tough work, there was truly an inner sense of accomplishment and reward unlike any I have felt doing any other work. Plant trees! Just do it! You will love yourself for it later, I promise. 🙂
We also have a big free tutorial page on the wonderful Lemon Essential Oil – and you might also be interested in this post on How To Make An Amazing “Detox Water” using lemon and cucumber (another easy project!)
One last thing before I send you the tutorial – have you seen this crazy list of the Top 20 Weird But Amazing Uses For Lemon Juice?
Ok here’s the link to the full tutorial – a fun, easy and rewarding weekend project:

😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)
After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.
As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.
Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…
Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

The #1 Muscle That Eliminates Joint And Back Pain, Anxiety And Looking Fat
By Mike Westerdal CPT
Can you guess which muscle in your body is the #1 muscle that eliminates joint and back pain, anxiety and looking fat?
This is especially important if you spend a significant amount of time sitting every day (I do, and this really affects me in a big way!)
Working this "hidden survival muscle" that most people are simply not training because no-one ever taught them how will boost your body shape, energy levels, immune system, sexual function, strength and athletic performance when unlocked.
If this "hidden" most powerful primal muscle is healthy, we are healthy.
Is it...
a) Abs
b) Chest
c) Glutes
d) Hip Flexors
Take the quiz above and see if you got the correct answer!

Mine never grow
My grand daughter and I did this, they grew really tall. Went to a greenhouse and was told to cut them back, so, I cut them way back. They are doing well, getting bushier. Gotta go back to the green house and ask how many times I need to do this, along with the fish emulsion mixture, for shock purposes, as they don’t give fruit till they are about 7. But what a good memory we have created! And God willing, we will get lemons:)
I was told you can grow from seed but unless it is grafted it won’t produce. I have a lemon tree from a nursery.. It produces lemon twice a year. Even a bought lemon tree takes 3-5 years to produce.
