Ep 6 - Living Sustainably: Why? What? How?

In this episode we’re talking all about sustainability. What is sustainability? Why does it matter? What are some practical ways we can live more sustainably, not only for the health of our planet, but also in our personal lives to create more sustainable wellbeing in our health, heart, and home. We hope you’ll dive in with us as we explore this very important and complex topic.

”When you find a lifestyle that’s sustainable, that’s wellness. When looking after your mind and body feels balanced, celebratory, delicious, and full of abundance, that’s wellness. It’s remembering that it’s what you do for decades, not on any given day, that matters.” -Ella Mills 

“Sustainability to us means making choices today that will positively impact tomorrow, in our environment, in our personal life, in our health, and in our relationships.”

“We are either stealing the future or healing the future” - Paul Hawken

“We don't need a handful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly.” - Anne Marie Bonneau 

For the planet: What is one practical thing you can begin doing to live more sustainably for the planet? Something that, however small, is a part of a more thriving planet.

For your lifestyle: Is there anything in your current lifestyle that doesn’t feel sustainable? What needs to shift in order to feel more balanced in a way that will be long lasting?
