Green Healthy Living - Habit or Hindrance?
Is Green living a viable solution? That depends upon the investment that we desire to engage, experience and on the type of Wellness that we will allow ourselves or feel that we deserve.
Taking small steps to reduce our carbon footprint can also help us live healthier, stronger, longer lives while in the process of using less planetary resources., ie less energy by doing more walking and less driving. Or by utilizing outdoor lighting, thus enjoying the outdoor sunlight for writing more then usage of artificial indoor lighting, during daylight hours. Seeking natural solutions for obtaining our vitamins the natural way instead of consuming packed, pharmaceutical vitamins is really a better, healthier way to live. Getting the vitamins from the availability of sunlight, ie., Vitamin D, E, K and whatever else we reap from natural sunlight is healthy and beneficial to our overall wellness and welfare, which can help uplift our emotions too! OOOPS, that's what I have to change and soon!
Eating at least one apple a day, preferably organic, also has a releasing effect on the digestive system. You ask how? If we eat more apples daily, we suffer less abdominal stress due to the digestive processing of foods and beverages that naturally aid digestion by adding fiber. Try to aid digestion as much and as often as you can naturally- be cognizant digestion needs natural assistance, we can adjust by using more natural solutions and elements before we reach for items in our medicine cabinet where chemistry was not meant to be used.
Help by using natural fruits and vegetables to aid digestion in lieu of bottled medicine or expensive aids that do nothing for long-lasting health, or for the additional cost energy by transport from factory to home, and the toll on the environment to get the processed medicine to storage warehouses and then to markets and human homes. YOU get the picture, right?
Alkaline water was an eye-opening experience, for me, when seeking major Wellness. Alkaline reduces the acid tendencies in our body, thus making us feel healthier and more energetic and able to reduce the mid-day energy and stamina lull that for many years,I thought was normal. *Alkaline water also instantly satisfies my thirst; like no other fluid that I've ever had. Without detail, as I am not scientifically qualified; What I am qualified to speak about though is my own experience. I am grateful to be able to purchase it as much and as often as I desire. Boiling Alkaline water, the old-fashioned way, for making hot, herbal tea is another mood lifter/body detoxifier for me.
Not reaching for the cookies and chocolate, during the course of the day, was a great awakening to wellness. More people globally suffer from dehydration, even though there is clean water available. Although clean water availability is still a challenge globally, in North America, Canada, and Europe, there is no excuse for living your life in a dehydrated state. Drinking enough water, daily, should be a no-brainer, though it still proves to be a challenge for most us and we reach for food first, too often, before we even begin to suspect that what we really need is water and hydration to feel uplifted, energized and satiated. Drinking water is also less expensive then eating and paying for processed, packed or let's face facts, food that's never been alive before! If a banana, an apple, or a carrot can turn rancid, then it was probably alive and got sick before you took the opportunity, that you had, to eat it, reaping its vitamin-giving support and ability to satiate your palate by choosing a great-tasting, healthy, food choices.
Drinking herbal tea,more often, instead of soft drinks or drinks that contain sugar is a habit that needs to be curbed, thus attributing to lasting health benefit. Less wear on teeth enamel and less exposure to the weight-gaining effects of consuming processed sugar- you expose yourself less to the biological-chemical process of what's happening in your body, sugar consumption alters the mind and the body immediately. **OUCH, who wants that?
*Every new venture has a beginning, starts with a desire, and when infused with passion, is achievable and conceivable! Desire good health for yourself; you will manifest the resources; the end result is that you can help save our planet; be the best being that you be; you can be; happy, healthy and recognize everyone in your periphery will also be happier and healthier too! Environmental awareness is more than fashionable, it's kindness and cognizance in-action. There ARE universal solutions that can be implemented by each individual person that affects humanity in a constructive, enlightening expanded way; utilizing natural resources and rethinking our daily practices and habits.
