Hi! My name is Laura, and I believe that small, everyday actions can make a big difference. I created this blog as a way to stop making excuses and start making positive changes in the world. Join me, and together we can build a better planet.

I've been using this one line a day journal since January 1st, and I love how it gives me the opportunity to reflect at the end of each day, without taking up much time or energy. Journaling is supposed to be good for your mental/emotional well-being, but it always seemed impossible to keep up with. I felt like I had to write down everything that happened and everything I was thinking, but this journal eliminates that. And you can do it without buying one of these journals--just write the date at the top of the page and limit yourself to writing one or two lines. Start a new page the next day, until you get back to the same date you started on the following year. . . . #journaling #reflection #selfcare #wellness #wellbeing #mentalhealth #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger #consciousconsumer

Today I made matcha pancakes using the recipe from #KintsugiWellness and holy crap they were amazing!! I was a little nervous about using TWO whole tablespoons of matcha because that stuff is imported and expensive, but luckily I was not disappointed with the results! Matcha is packed with antioxidants and host of health benefits, so it's a great addition to my diet this month as I work toward my goal of improving personal well-being! . . . @candicekumai #matcha #wellbeing #matchapancakes #lazysunday #wellness #glutenfree #zerowaste #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger #consciousconsumerism

That Friday feeling... . This little girl is all tuckered out after an eventful morning! A colleague brought his new puppy to work today, and even though I had a lot to do, I took some time to pet, hold, and play with this sweet fluff ball! It's so important to take time for rest and enjoyment!! And I can't think of anything that brings me more enjoyment than a warm puppy 🐶 . . . #puppy #joy #friyay #simplepleasures #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger

This is basically a miracle...it's barely 10pm, and I'm already in bed! But I'm serious about my goals for this month--I'm going to bed early, so that I can wake up with enough energy to do more of what matters! And now it's time to actually turn off the light and go to sleep. Sweet dreams! 😴 . . . #earlytobedearlytorise #bedtime #resolutions #healthyliving #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger #consciousconsumer #responsibleconsumption

One of the ways I'm working on personal well-being this month is through a daily yoga practice. Yoga is amazing because it touches on all three components of well-being: physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual. I have participated in the annual 30 day yoga challenge with @adrienelouise for several years now, but I never seem to make it all the way through. Today is day 8, and I'm still going strong, but I usually make it about halfway before deciding I'd rather use that time to sleep in/watch TV/go to bed early. Perhaps talking about it on Instagram will help hold me accountable. If you are also taking part in Dedicate, let me know, and maybe we can help each other! . . . #yoga #wellbeing #wellness #selfcare #yogawithadriene #fwfg #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger #consciousconsumer #consciousconsumerism #responsibleconsumption

Since The Better Planet Project's theme for January is personal well-being, I think it's important to break down what that actually means. The way I see it, well-being can be divided into three essential components: physical well-being, mental/emotional well-being, and spiritual well-being. You could further subdivide these categories, or argue that there are additional components, but these three things cover the gist of what I'd like to focus on in January. By taking care of my physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual well-being, I hope to build a foundation for the ways in which I aim to make the planet a better place throughout the rest of the year. . . . #wellbeing #wellness #health #selfcare #mindbodysoul #resolutions #betterplanetproject #intentionalliving #sustainability #sustainableliving #ethicalliving #ethicalblogger #consciousconsumer #consciousconsumerism #responsibleconsumption
