Wellness Habits That Are Good for You & Good for The Earth 01 Adopting an eco-friendly lifestyle is like hitting the jackpot of wellness — for both the planet 02 and for you! When you reduce your carbon footprint by walking or biking instead of driving, not 03 only you are reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but you’re also reducing your exposure to 04 harmful toxins and improving your physical health. The benefits of going green include reduced 05 stress levels, lower risk of illness, and increased energy and concentration. All from simple habits, 06 like gardening! Gardening protects wildlife and improves the air and soil quality. It is also a great 07 way to burn some extra calories, it lowers blood pressure, busts stress, boosts your mood, and 08 improves sleep. Not to mention you can avoid harmful chemicals. 09 An alternative to gardening is hitting the farmers market or loading up on local food from 10 your favorite grocery store. In addition to supporting your local farmers, shopping locally will 11 reduce your carbon footprint. And while on the topic of food, it’s good to reduce your intake of 12 animal foods and incorporate more plant-based meals. Red meat requires lots of resources (such 13 as water, fertilizer, and cropland) and produces lots of greenhouse gas emissions. One liter of 14 dairy milk requires 1,050 liters of water, whereas 1 liter of oat milk requires about 48 liters to 15 produce. Beauty and personal care products also need attention. Aside from degrading the 16 environment and polluting, they may contain toxic chemicals such as carcinogens, formaldehyde, 17 fragrances, and parabens. Your skin is your largest organ — it easily absorbs anything you’re 18 using on your skin, hair, face, or body. Look for green and sustainable options. 19 If you haven’t felt inspired to get started with spring cleaning yet, know that besides having 20 a clean, organized space, you’re doing good for mother nature. Donating clothes reduces landfills, 21 saves water, reduces your carbon footprint, and of course, helps those in need. It also makes 22 room for bringing plants into your home, which can help oxygenate your space and remove 23 harmful indoor air pollutants. Boston Ferns and Spider plants can help you breathe easier while 24 reducing the number of airborne toxins circulating in the environment. And in addition to being 25 chic and sustainable decor, indoor plants may help reduce stress, boost productivity, and benefit 26 your mental health. 27 Going Green is a win for all involved — especially when it comes to the environment and 28 your health! The best part? These healthy habits can be seamlessly incorporated into your 29 lifestyle. From gardening and sustainable grocery shopping to making simple eco-friendly swaps, 30 there are endless ways to protect the environment and your health. And if these sustainable tips 31 seem small, don’t underestimate their large impact! Every time you bike to work, shop local, and 32 swap out toxic products, you’re reducing air pollutants, water use, and plastic, while also limiting 33 your exposure to toxins and bettering your health.
