Frequently Asked Questions
So What is Shopping Kharma anyway?
This website was originally built as an affiliate website. It grew as dreams and Ideas came about. The whole overall theme is Good Kharma and to put good things out the world in hopes of achieving World Peace. I live by Karma and have always felt that if you put good things out to the world, good things will come back.
Why do you have an "H" in Kharma?
I honestly tried to get shoppingkarma, but that URL is already taken. So I thought long and hard about the way that Kharma is pronounced and then when you give Good Kharma to the world, it really does come from your "heart" & your soul. It only made sense to spell it that way.
What is this site all about?
It's all about good Kharma and the different ways to give it to the world. We offer uplifting advice on all sorts of topics.
I see it as a problem everyday and it is something that I hope to change many minds and feelings about. I want others to be able to get into their car, and not feel so angry or upset. Everyday is a gift and to be able to get into your car and experience going some place else is a gift. No sense in feeling stressed about it.
Who built this site?
I encourage you to check out my "About Me" page to find out more.
What's with all the banners? Why so many advertisements?
I hope one day to make money from my website. It costs money for hosting fees, advertising, extra help for editing, and much more. I do try to place banners as neatly as possible, using themes, color schemes and much more. These banners and advertisements are the bread winners for this website.
What is this "Shop for A Cure"? Am I really shopping for a cure or what?
We opened our ShopKharmaestore back in August as a way to raise more money for Holistic and Natural research on treatments for Cancer, Alzheimer's, Diabetes, MS, Parkinsons disease and much more. Bastyr University does just that and we would like to help continue their studies so that there is one day a cure!
What is "Greener Products for a Better World, Inc.?
Greener Products for a Better World, Inc. is my legally registered S-Corportation. I decided to go with a Corportation rather than a LLC to protect my assets. Yes, it's true, I don't have too much trust for the Gov't. It was a business decision to do so.
Do You run any other websites?
We do have several websites, we have BeautyofSeaweed, goodcauseopportunities, and of couse the ShopKharmaestore!
You Offer Advice on Cancer Survival, what's with that?
I figure, I've been there, done that, why not help others to fight as hard as they can? The key is enjoying every day and treasuring every moment. It's about right now. I feel that I have the knowledge now to beat this disease at least for right now and I would like to help as many others as I can. Even those who don't have the disease but are rather depressed. I hope this site will make many smile and feel peaceful with themselves. I think it also helps me to be able share my experiences. I hope you will think of it also as advice on how to take care of yourself so that you don't end up like myself.

I revisited your site and still have the same impression that your site is very nicely done in soothing colors and has an uplifting message that is carried throughout in the products available. It's unique because you've lived the experience and from that stems the wisdom that you're able to share, which is a gift. All best wishes for lots of continued success!!. http://www.abellamiento.ecrater.com/
there's something very relaxing about this web page. Maybe it's the cheerful way it introduces itself, maybe it's the pictures, one of the best sites I've seen on link referral so far. http://www.zmetrotales.com/
