Lori instinctively understands healing of the brain and body. On her cards and art she uses bright colors which feeds the brain visually. (This lens is a visual element, hence bright colors were used throughout to give you the vibrational sense of her cards and artwork).

Her clothes on the other hand are soft fabrics and colors so that they feel wonderful. The words work through the emotional body, creating a sense of peace, joy and contentment. The ideal emotional setting for healing, being inspired and moving through life with joy.

Toddlers shirts are in strong primary colors because they are developing a sense of self and with it a strong sense of self-esteem. Baby Onesies are in a soft palate as they are still very dreamy, drifting between this realm and the heavenly realm they came from.

How many T-shirts in your closet do you have with a written message on them? Do you think they are only affecting the people who read them? Think again! Here in Lori's own voice is why words that you wear matter:

"There are good reasons to cover your body with delicious, empowering words! It's been scientifically demonstrated that words have the ability to affect water molecules. good vibrations - good vibes - create healthy patterns in water. healthy patterns in water support the magic of life.

Studies show that water taken from jars with the words love, gratitude and peace written on them form beautiful, complete snowflake-like crystals when frozen and photographed.

Did you know that your body is more than 70% water?

Your brain, more than 75% water
Your blood, more than 85% water
Your muscles, more than 75% water
Your bones, about 50% water
Your lungs, nearly 80% water, and
Your liver, an amazing 96% water!

Read The Hidden Messages in Water by Masaru Emoto. in this and his many other books, Dr. Emoto explains how by holding an intention of love, joy, serenity or grace towards water in our bodies, that water can and will bring that intention to our bodies and, ultimately, to the world.

Now you know that what you think, say - and wear - affects the water you are made up of, your health and well-being!

Lori's story of why she supports the charity, Christmas Box, once again shows us how she acts on her beliefs. The three beautiful children shown here were her foster children for two years.

Lori says:

"Near and dear to Just Bee is the Christmas Box House, a 501(c)3 nonprofit that supports abused and neglected children.

Christmas Box International and the Christmas Box House, were inspired by the book The Christmas Box, which celebrates love for children. Christmas Box International provides services around the United States and the world to improve the quality of life for children who have been abused or neglected.

The Christmas Box House provides transitional shelter for children removed from abusive homes. Children stay at the Christmas Box House before going on to foster homes or before returning to their own homes once they are safe.

The Christmas Box House additionally serves as a one-stop assessment center where children receive mental, emotional and physical care in a loving, home-like environment. they also receive badly needed new clothing and incidentals.

In keeping with Just Bee's bee-lief in win-win-win scenarios, 20% of the proceeds from sales at the Just Bee launch event held on November 14, 2007 in Newport Beach, California were donated to the Christmas Box House, as well as a box of Just Bee merchandise.

I wish the Christmas Box House had existed more than 12 years ago when I took in three foster children of my own in May, 1995. They arrived at my home in Salt Lake City with all their clothes and possessions fitting in one small box. The state provided me just $163 per child for new wardrobes (bathing suits to snow suits).

With Just Bee I can now support the Christmas Box House in a whole new way; clothing for infants, toddlers and teens - to touch, move and inspire - as they take their next steps."
