Thank you to everybody who participated in the Fabulous February Blog Contest! The winner is now up! I am thoroughly impressed by all the great stuff you've been up to and I'm looking forward to another great month in March!
I'm also happy to report that I've made
some significant headway with my own new year's resolutions. Despite
the cold, I've been bundling up and spending more time outside. I've
been getting creative with some fun and easy upcycling projects. I've
been sticking to a healthy diet which includes my new lemon water
regimen. I've started converting to all natural hygiene, cosmetic and
household cleaning products. And I've put the wheels in motion to get
certified as a fitness instructor (because I am just as passionate
about fitness as I am about green living).
Whew! It's been a busy month!
I don't know about you but I'm feeling
energized by such a great start to the new year and I want to keep
the momentum going. That's why I'm dedicating the entire month of
February to being fabulous!
Exactly what does that mean, you ask?
You see, I feel so good about the positive changes I've made in my
life over the past month that I want to extend the opportunity to you
to share some of your wonderful accomplishments, big or small.
As an added bonus I'll be treating one lucky reader to their choice of either a *Sustain Tank Top or a *Sustain Yoga Halter in the colour and size of their choice (*subject to availability). Both of these eco-friendly items are designed by 4-rth (pronounced: for earth) and are great for working out or for just plain lounging.
