Does Going "Zero Waste" Really Make a Difference?
I'm new to the "zero waste" lifestyle. I've always cared about the environment, but I never even considered the possibility of living without plastic and without landfill waste until I started to hear about YouTubers like "trash is for tossers."
Bee BetterPublished 7 years ago in LongevityWhat Is Vegan?
"Oh, I don't eat that...I'm VEGAN." No doubt you have heard that at least once in a restaurant or even with friends. It seems as if this word just popped up on the scene recently, and it would probably be considered trendy to eat vegan foods...anything for the Insta pics. But vegan and vegetarian ways of eating have been around as early as 500 B.C.E according to Time magazine. The term "Vegan" was manufactured in about 1944. Now what the heck is vegan?
Ciéra PaigePublished 7 years ago in LongevityWhy Are Habits So Hard to Break?
It seems so easy—just stop eating unhealthy foods and exercise regularly and you'll achieve the perfect body; just stop smoking and your lungs will restore themselves to their healthier form—it sounds so simple, but why is it so hard? Why don't we all have the "perfect body" or lungs that can inhale and exhale at normal capacity? To put it simply, humans are stubborn, unwavering creatures of habit.

One question I’m constantly asked is “Why are you such a picky eater?” We’re talking nearly every time I go out to eat with friends. Yes, they don’t mean it in a negative way and yes, it’s all light-hearted “banter” but let’s be honest now friends, I’m not a picky eater!

A New Lifestyle
It's 7:10AM and I woke up about an hour ago. I watched a couple of videos on, "How to become a morning person" the night before and I was truly inspired... motivated. Mind you, I have had times like this before, where I felt that I needed a lifestyle change, where I needed to utilize my time of day doing something more productive and meaningful than sleeping in until mid-day and wasting the rest of the day accomplishing the bare minimum. But this time it was different, this time I told myself, "It's now or never Shawd! Get to it!" So I did.

Beach day! I'm a lucky woman... feeling grateful and feeling blessed, knowing that this trip is coming close to an end... which is really just another new beginning. I needed every moment and second of this. Every struggle and every challenge has reawakened a part of me that has been buried underneath a series of losses, traumas, and changes that pulled the rug out from under me.

I just received a phone call from my father saying that he and his wife have just returned home from their latest excursion – a week’s holiday in the north of our state where it’s a little warmer than the winter they’ve been experiencing in their hometown. What’s rather unique about this story is that both my father and stepmother are 96 years of age!

If you have never heard of Melaleuca before, you are probably pretty skeptical right now about "just another one of these subscription scam websites."
