Slow for a green life

Dallas, Texas (CaymanMama.com) — Part of living a green life is to slow down and enjoy the scenery.

Considering the holidays are around the corner and life tends to speed up when the stockings come out, here are some tips to help the environment while easing up pressure on your wallet and your peace of mind.

1. Slow down on the road to save gas. Speeding only gets you there minutes earlier, but puts your life and other’s lives at risk. Slowing down from 70 mph to 60 mph can reduce your fuel consumption by 20 percent!

2. Eat slower and savor the taste. Eat cleaner foods that are better for the planet and better for your body. Fast food is just that — FAST — and lacks all the essential nutrients you need for those tranquil feelings. Cutting out the fast food and restaurant visits means saving money and possible medical expenses from the problems associated with eating grease, fat and processed foods. Plan ahead

3. Plan ahead by shopping for the holidays and other special occasions in advance to avoid last minute stress which can cause more money spent.

4. Relax and de-stress your life by trying new ways to unwind such as yoga, meditation, and other stress-reduction techniques. Trying new ways to unwind and unplug make for improved health, less stress and less trips to the doctor.
