Ottawa giveaway alert: Making healthy changes in the new year? Start here.
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Fishbowl patrons|Giveaways and product reviews
I’ve mentioned the book Better Than Before: Mastering the Habits of Our Everyday Lives
If YOU are thinking about developing some healthy habits for 2017, I have something that will start you off on the right foot. I am very happy to be posting this giveaway from Fishbowl patron, terra20! It’s a great place to kickstart a healthy habit or two for the new year.
Some ideas to consider:
- Swapping your conventional cosmetics and beauty products for brands that are free of harmful chemicals. Maybe 2017 is the year you add something new to your skin care routine? Cleansing cloths, for example, for the nights we just want to fall into bed. (I resolve NOT to go to sleep with full makeup!) Check out these Bamboo Facial Cleansing Cloths by Kaia Naturals, for example.
- Greening up your clean routine at home. For starters, terra20 carries a whole line of cleaning products in their ecobar. As an added bonus, they come in refillable containers too, which means there’s less plastic is generated and used. Here’s something to think about. Even if you change one product it will make a difference over time. For example, we stopped using paper towels a few years ago and never looked back.
- Ditching single use containers for daily beverages. Say goodbye to cases of bottled water and pick up a gorgeous refillable water bottle instead. (I love my S’well bottle from terra20!) Use an insulated mug of your choice instead of using up disposable coffee cups every morning at your favourite coffee shop.
- Instead of coffee, how about tea? One of my favourite new habits is incorporating tea time into my afternoon in the form of a mini meditation. It gives me a few quiet moments to pause and reflect and it has helped me managed my stress levels. I’ve been exploring new teas to enjoy too. terra20 carries tealish brand teas that are made in Canada.
