Seventh Generation #7DayJourney

Well, it's a brand new season. Old Man Winter is finally making way for spring, and all of the beautiful things that come along with it. Since spring is a time for renewal, I have been thinking a lot about making choices to create a healthier, happier me this year. With the help of Seventh Generation, I have been changing a lot of things in my life, from my diet all the way down to which personal care products I am using.

One of the biggest changes I have made in the name of being healthier is giving up soda. I have been a caffeine addict for years and years, even though I knew just how horrible this habit was for my overall health. While I only drank diet soft drinks, I was surprised to learn that in many ways they're just as bad as their traditional counterparts. So I am proud to say, for the past week, I have been soda-free. I quit cold turkey, and have been drinking a lot of water mixed with flavored drink packets. Surprisingly enough, the change was fairly painless. Sure, I miss my "bubbly drinks", but I know that by giving them up, I am extending my life and being a better example for my kids.

Another change I have made is that I have been much more aware of what is in the products my family uses. I have been looking for more natural ingredients in our products, whether it be cleaning products or bath and body products. I really love the new line of personal care products from the folks at Seventh Generation. This amazing line of products is made from 93% plant-based ingredients, making it the first line of its kind to receive the USDA Biobased Certification! What does that mean in plain English? These products work amazingly well, and provide your skin with pampering, natural ingredients, and leaving out everything your skin doesn't need, like parabens, pthalates, and synthetic fragrances.

Seventh Generation wants to get you started on your journey to natural beauty.
