When my husband and I decided to go green we thought that it wasn't going to be easy, but we quickly realized that being green became contagious. We started with the simple things like switching our regular lightbulbs to CFL's and our toxic cleaners to more eco-friendly ones. Before we realized it, it grew and became a life changing reflex.
We all want what is best for our health, our families and future generations. We don't have to be superheroes to save our beloved earth. We only need to give it a little more thought when we make everyday decisions. We all buy and eat fast food because it's cheap or microwave leftovers because it's convenient. Do we ever give it a second thought about how these actions effect our planet? There are pesticides allover the lawns where children play and even in our homes!!! We use toxic chemicals to clean our homes, the clothes we wear, and dishes from which we we eat and cook with. Our planet is polluted by toxins, even the food we eat contain pesticides and carcinogens.
We have lost our connection with nature and the importance of it. Due to our lack of knowledge and habits our planet is suffering. But there is hope. By learning more about our environment and what is healthy and safe, as well as changing many of our habits we can help to create a better world.

Going Green
What do you think when you think about going green? That it's expensive, or maybe it's too much work. Does it mean giving up meat?!?!?! Well the answers to all these questions are No, no and NO!
There are extremely minor changes that one can make in their home and lifestyle that will not only help save the planet, but create a HEALTHIER YOU!
A little over a year ago my husband and I had decided to switch over to green cleaners. We immediately saw the difference! We no longer had headaches, runny noses, cold and bronchial issues after cleaning! In this process we had learned that Shaklee Corp. has been setting the standards by leading the way for over 50 years! Shaklee's cleaners are not only green, but they can help you save the green in your wallet or let you make more green! If you want to know how simply ask me!
So, our first step was to switch our cleaning products. Second step, become Shaklee distributors and help others switch their cleaning products. Now what else can we do to improve our lives and be healthier? Little by little we changed the things we do, such as using reusable shopping bags, recycling, switching our light bulbs to CFL's, conserving energy by using big appliances like dishwashers, washers and dryers at night, using cold water to wash clothes, leaving our shoes at the door, etc......was all of this done over night? OF COURSE NOT! We tackled these things one at a time until it became a habit before moving on to the next. They say it takes 30 days of doing something routinely for it to become a habit....meaning you do it without having to think about it anymore.
We now have our consulting buisness, Better Living Enterprises, with which we help people green their lives! Whether ready to take baby steps or a complete makeover we can help you create a healthier lifestyle and while at it contribute to saving our beautiful planet!
