5 Tips For Green Living

Hope you're staying cool & enjoying some summer fun so far.  Summer is a great time to check in on how we are doing with our green, healthy living habits to support nature and the planet.

Here are 5 tips to help you have a green, clean, healthy body & home while you help save the planet.

1. Look for businesses that are Certified B Corporations™: B Corps are for profit businesses that commit to balance both profit and purpose.  These brands meet legal standards to consider not only the needs of their customer and employees in their decision making but also the environment and larger global community.

2. Look for the BUNNY LABEL to find brands that don’t do testing on animals. Download the cruelty cutter app to make it easier to shop cruelty free.
 
3. GROCERY SHOPPING:

• Daily Harvest- Save time and eat clean with this organic, frozen fruits & veggies delivery service (smoothies, soups, flatbreads, bowls, & more). Save up to $40 off your first box with   here*.
• Imperfect Foods* Grocery delivery service with a mission to eliminate food waste and build better food system for everyone. They save the misfit veggies and fruit that would be thrown away despite being fine to eat but not up to specs. You'll also save on brands that are changing their labels/packaging. 
• Litterless has a list of zero waste grocery stores in the US.

 
4. HOUSEHOLD GOODS:

• Reel Paper*    One of my pandemic finds. A tree free, 100% bamboo toilet paper delivery service.  Looks like they just launched in Target stores and have a new paper towel line that I’m going to check out soon.
• For a Healthy Home*: my go to for green & clean products to support your nutrition and skin care needs inside and out. Bonus it's a Certified B corp that's never tested on animals.
• Eco- friendly Athletic Wear: here are 9 companies that manufacture workout clothes made from recycled plastics and sustainable bamboo fabrics.

5. CAMPS WITH A CAUSE: our online bodywork camps will not only help you have a Strong, Calm, Rested Body but every camp sale supports an organization that improves the health & welfare of animals and wild life like the Beagle Freedom Project & Sheldrick Wildlife Trust.  Learn More.

Remember it all adds up.  Mini moves & baby steps to have a healthier body and lifestyle.  The brands you chose matter for not only you and your home but our planet.

P.S. More scoop on 2 of my favorite Animal Rescue & Rehab organizations that we support with every online camp sale.

Beagle Freedom Project is a non-profit animal rescue and advocacy organization and the world’s leading organization for rescuing and rehoming animals used in experimental research. Since 2010 the charity has been freeing survivors from laboratory experiments, senior and special needs animals from shelters, and victims of horrific abuse from around the world.  FYI Beagles are the most tested on dogs, particularly in the cosmetic and beauty industry, due to their gentle nature.  Remember look for the bunny label or use the cruelty cutter app to shop.
 
Sheldrick Wildlife Trust rescues & rehabs orphaned elephants, rhino’s & wildlife in Kenya to return them healthy to the wild as well as securing habitats for future generations, providing fresh water relief, vet rescue units and my favorite- their canine project using dogs to sniff out wildlife crime.
