Ever wonder what the healthy alternatives are for our everyday products? What conscious changes are you making in your life? Let this group be a place for support and ideas.
I've spent the last about 3 years searching for eco-friendly products. I've had some luck on the internet (I'll post some links). But it has been difficult, especially in local stores. Finally now I'm starting to see more products locally. It's very unfortunate that it is so hard to find products that aren't harmful to us and the environment. It seems pretty backwards. But hopefully now that people are becoming more aware, that will change.(In fact it seems to be already) Many of these products cost a lot more than the regular products that most people are used to. I also hope that will change, because I know many more would make the earth-friendly choice(even if they don't understand the importance of it) if they could afford it. Although, there are some you can make yourself and that is considerably cheaper than the conventional products. I clean houses using all natural cleaning products, some of which I make myself(I will also post some recipes, very simple). I'm wondering what it is like where other people live(SD seems to be pretty behind on things), is it easy to find enviromentally safe products? Are there a lot of people that use them? Do they cost a lot more than conventional products? I would really like to know your thoughts on this. And what it is like other places.
This is wonderful and I'm really inspired as well -- I think it's true that all natural and organic products are getting easier to find. I've definitely been noticing that more and more people are striving to be environmentally friendly.. yay :) I'm glad we can share our experience, knowledge and inspiration!
Tom's toothpaste is great - I just started using it a few months ago
Aveda is another good company - I just switched from the cheap shampoo/conditioner to some of theirs and it's great
