As I'm sure you know by now this is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a month that is dedicated to bringing attention to early detection and prevention.

'The Big C' (and I don't mean the cable TV show) has definitely affected my family and as a result I'm a strong believer in the saying "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure"

While there are a variety of factors that contribute to Breast Cancer, including environmental, hormones, genetics and more, one thing that is most important to a healthy outcome is early detection. Early detection gives you the most treatment options as well as the greatest chance at survival and remission!

It seems like the entire planet is washed in pink this month, pink has seemingly become the official color of Breast Cancer Awareness!

Have you given yourself a 'self examination' this month? I found a very thorough article on ehow which is a must read concerning the proper way to conduct a self-exam!

As you know this month offers those fabulous 'Shop-a-tunities' to get something great for you, and do something great for the cause too! We love featuring companies that give back! Especially one whose products we totally adore!



In honor of October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Satya Jewelry is proud to partner with The Young Survival Coalition (YSC). A percentage of sales from the 'sweetness in your life locket necklace' will be donated to the YSC during the month of October. Young Survival Coalition (YSC) is the premier international organization dedicated to the critical issues unique to young women and breast cancer. YSC works with survivors and caregivers; as well as the medical, research, advocacy and legislative communities to increase the quality and quantity of life for women diagnosed with breast cancer ages 40 and under. For more information about the YSC visit http://www.youngsurvival.org

While you are thinking pink, take a look at the great assortment of Pretty Pink jewelry you can purchase at Satya! And of course I have to mention that they have a lovely assortment of butterfly jewelry too! Like their '18kt gold plated eb mini butterfly earrings' (style#: eg154) and it's matching Necklace (style#: ng401_l18) The Satya Foundation donates 100% of the proceeds from the sale of these items to the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation, aiming to find a cure for a rare childhood skin disease. For More information on the foundation please visit www.ebkids.org
 
We have worked with Satya in the past and are always amazed with the quality and of course overall WOW factor of their jewelry! But the fact that they are always giving back is why they will always have a place in my heart.  I firmly beleive that when you bless others you will always be blessed yourself. They don't just promote gemstone jewelry with a zen aesthetic, they very much practice what they preach. They have a quote right now on their website from Ghandi that reads 'Be the change you wish to see in this world' and I feel they embody that message perfectly.
 
Lately life for me has been extremely busy and somewhat chaotic, and when I opened the mailbox to find Satya's 'cherry quartz harmony bracelet' inside I was extremely excited!  The  7.5" bracelet made of  pink faceted beads of cherry quartz bring your mind, body and emotions into balance. A sterling silver cut-out om charm represents the sacred sound of the universe also bringing inner peace and harmony. Wear this bracelet to bring your life into the balance it deserves! I put it on right away and headed to my meditation altar with it! I will say looking at it made me smile, and when I am not meditating with it, I actually leave it out on my meditation altar and greatly enjoy seeing it everyday!
 
 
 
I placed it on top of a red pyramid I have on my meditation table and it just looks striking against it! And somehow looks to me like it's always been there, and definitely belongs there! I have a feeling my jewelry box won't see this one!

I perceive it as a visual reminder, to love and take care of my body and my health, the importance of prevention and because of the Om symbol, also as a reminder to take moments of deep breathing and stillness DAILY. Very much fitting with our daily breathing affirmational messages! You know I had to incorporate a butterfly into the picture somehow!
