Caribu is the Virtual Playdate

by Lisa Gal

Voted a top 100 Best Invention in 2019 by Time Magazine, Caribu is the new go to app that connects kids with their grandparents. “Caribu lets both parties share an activity on the screen, so they can see and talk to each other, as well as draw pictures, play games or read more than 1,000 books in eight languages together,” says Emily Barone. It’s the most fun your family can have in a video-call. Getting started is as easy as 1, 2, 3. Download the app, Invite family and call (it’s free for them and only $7 a month for you-free for military families), then read and color together. We are thrilled to have Caribu‘s founder Maxeme Tuchman and her app take part in our Hollywood Swag bag gifting honoring Oscar weekend.

Your Key to a Pain Free Life with the Hollywood Healer

Known as The Hollywood Healer, Chris Shelton is a certified Master Qigong practitioner and teacher with over 20 years of clinical experience in Qigong, an ancient holistic health modality that combines traditional Chinese medicine with movement, breath and visualization. Chris has helped thousands of people across the United States and around the world reclaim their health and enjoy lives free from chronic pain. He’s worked with Special Olympics teams, professional martial artists, weight lifters, musicians, and celebrities looking for deeper meaning in their lives, and to heal pain. In 2019, he was awarded the Special Olympics Volunteer of the Year Award. He has an office in Burbank and San Jose, CA.

Chris is blessed with happy clients and students who attribute physical and emotional transformations to his work in Qigong.  He has studied with some of China’s most revered traditional Chinese medicine masters who, until recently, were kept silent and hidden from the West. Chris’ belief in the healing powers of Qigong is rooted in first-hand experience. As a teenager Chris suffered from a devastating back injury that left him in constant pain and partially paralyzed. He attributes his full recovery to Qigong, a holistic healing approach perfect for people who want non-invasive, affordable and empowering healthcare.

Chris’ work has appeared in newspapers and magazines and been featured on radio and television. He is founder of Morning Crane Healing Arts Center in San Jose, California, and the author of Qigong for Self-Refinement.

Cotton Halo is the Bomb

by Lisa Gal

Cotton Halo bath bombs are an explosion of fragrance, color, moisturizing oils, and soothing salts. Unlike many mass produced bath bombs, Cotton Halo bath bombs are made in the U.S.A. in Cotton Plant, Arkansas using quality ingredients. Founder Sheila Banks created the bath bombs as a way to heal and honor the memory of a family member that left them way too soon. They found that in the midst of their grief and loss, making bath bombs helped to heal their hearts.  Soon what began as gifts for family and friends turned into a larger demand for the products and Cotton Halo was born. We are thrilled to include these luxurious bath bombs in our Hollywood Swag Bags honoring Oscar Weekend. To purchase your own bath bombs, please visit the Cotton Halo Company.
