When you think of the phrase “Green Lifestyles” what comes to mind?For me when I threw down my first uncensored brainstorms on paper playing with a mindmap, the first raw clusters of info that popped into my head were water, waste, health, home, garden, power, transportation, work and play. The process of green living is just starting for me. Roosevelt, Kirk and Andre have really been catalysts of change and hope for me. They’ve opened my eyes to some cutting edge concepts and the possibilities of living healthier, feeling fit and reducing my carbon footprint. It’s personal for me. I have Multiple Sclerosis, and I’m trying to make some positive changes in my life. Sometimes you get sick and tired of feeling sick and tired! lolI don’t work presently, nor do I have health insurance. They see me coming with a pre-existing condition, and it’s an automatic “no-go”. In a position like that you’re going to have to re-asses everything in lfe. So the changes have been slow and gradual, but like any new and revolutionary ideas, the results have already created a seismic shift in my way of thinking and basic core values. It’s not just about eating raw food and recycling. It’s so much bigger than that! It’s about people, it’s about community, it’s about life. And yes, it IS Global!I’m a skeptic and very analytical. When someone makes a claim of some sort, if it matters to me, I’m gonna scope it out, research it and put it to the test. That’s just me. When you start really digging into organic foods and living green, it becomes a no-brainer. Start weighing the cost of healthcare vs healthier preventive alternatives such as nutrition and fitness that are not only good for you, but also good for your community and the world you live in and ~ well ~ the benefits become quite clear! My green lifestyle discovery journey is just beginning. What has yours been like? What do you know? When you think of the term Green Lifestyles, what does it mean to you personally? We all have a story to tell, a truth to share! What is yours?Give me “the juice”. Let me hear from you! ciao,Lis’ Contact: liportelli@aol.com
