Ask the 5 “W”s about Vegan & Organic Skin Care
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” Benjamin Franklin had said. This was actually advice for fire protection against economic loss due to house fires. Wisdom here can also be applied to our health by choosing vegan and organic foods plus a healthy lifestyle.
Undoubtedly, organic foods cost a little more than the average. At the same time, think about what vegan and organic nutrition gives to your health: no pesticides, no chemicals, no preservatives, no GMO (genetically-modified organisms). Over time, the investment is worth the abundant return. Think organic in it’s wholistic offerings: food, clothing, makeup, beauty skin care products and even cookcare.
Healthy lifestyles incorporate WISDOM. Ask the 5 Ws (who, what, when, where and why) and 1 H (how) the next time you think about what goes into your mouth, on your body, into your thoughts. For example, when choosing a soap to wash with, think “who made this? what’s in it? when was it made? why would I buy this product over the others? how would my shower residue impact our environment?” With a bit of practice, this habit will become automatic! Start today and increase the practice over time.
Ben Franklin was undoubtedly a very wise man. Even a little of his wisdom is worth the gain now and in the future for our health, wealth & happiness.
