Detox for Life

What are you doing this long weekend? In the sugar-coma haze which will inevitably descend, I think we’ll all be craving a bit of a freshen up, and what better way to do it than by a detox! Don’t worry, we don’t mean any sort of ‘put down the chocolate and drink only lemon water’ type detox – we’re talking instead about cutting the bad habits and waste from our lives and giving them a healthy and sustainable makeover. This clever little video by Green Villages Sydney will get you started, with ideas on self-sufficiency and strengthening your local community to boot! See their other clips here if you haven’t already, including how to detox your home and revamp the way you eat. After Easter, you’ll certainly be thanking them for it!
