With more than 55% of Americans saying that protecting the environment should be a global priority (as reported by a study from McKinsey & Company), it’s no wonder that green living has become a popular theme. However living green is about a whole lot more than simply jumping on a bandwagon or becoming a more responsible citizen.

Green living has alot to do with spiritually as well.

Think about it....when you practice a life which is conscious about what you take from the earth, I mean being really mindful of it, won't you pause to think about the potential repercussion of that action? Of taking? Of litering? Of polluting? Of destroying?

And if you think a little bit more about what you do and how that action effects the grand scheme of things, won't you inevitably start making decisions which reflect that you've contemplated their effect on the whole? 

Of course you will!

You can't help but be raised to a more awakened state. This heightening of your your sense of interrelatedness with everything on this planet can begin to affect other areas of your life. You may find yourself being more cognizant of your family, your coworkers, your health, your surroundings..even how you handly your money and how you spend your time. You start to view everything differently!

It's almost like waking up...and seeing for the first time; getting centered on what really matters. It's like taking a deep breath and then slowly, exhale...

Whooo!

That's felt good, didn't it? 

It felt good to taste in fresh, clean air and let that air flow over your senses.

Ah...You're getting a better feeling to what 'green' is all about.

Getting involved and making conscious choices towards incorporating environmentally friendly practises in your life can lead to a sense of being more connected to everything around you. My question to you is...

Are you up to the challenge?
