My primary aim in publishing amazing, free content is to help all my visitors find solutions to a problem, meet a need or fulfil a desire. As part of that, I link to various products and services I genuinely believe will be of help in making my visitors' lives happier, healthier and easier. If you click a link to a product or service and buy it, I stand to earn a small commission. There is no additional cost to you. This is called "affiliate or referral marketing." In some instances, even if you buy a different product from the same place up to 90 days later, I may also receive a commission. You can find out more about this in my privacy policy.

If you've got any questions about any of this, I'd be happy to help - you can contact me here.
