Becoming a mother has made me increasingly eco-conscious. I’ve always wanted to have a greener and healthier lifestyle, but I’ve often failed because I just didn’t have the proper motivation. That all changed, particularly around the time my son began eating solid food. The more I learn, the more I realize that the way I’ve been living is simply not healthy, nor is it sustainable.
I am slowly changing that. I believe that real change is most likely to happen when it is slowly instituted. Please join me in taking baby steps to a greener lifestyle!
Changes I have made to date:
- Completely giving up soda
- Only buying the organic version of the “dirty dozen”
- Making my own non-toxic cleaner
- Using a DivaCup
- Using the “no ‘poo” method to clean my hair
All of these changes have been completely painless.
