As we enter the New Year of 2009 many of us will reflect on the vents that have just past and in this light will try our best to move forward to help our World and life become more greener and hopefully more peaceful and healthy at the same time.
As much of the World will focus on Prosperity for the Incoming Year I would equally like to ad good health and a grenr life on the list of New Year Goodies as these are just as important as the Prosperity item on the list. I would also like more peace and less poverty of couse as these two are interlinked by the hip.
I want to wish all my Dear Readers and fellooggers out there a fantast 2009 as we battle our way on the Internet yest again. Happy New Year and Peace and love for all.
Although Ecology and the Eco problems we face at Large can weight quite heavily on us at times it is good with cup of fresh herbal tea to sit back sometimes, relax and actually have a bit of fun.
Here are some Eco Cartoons to lighten up your day, especially if you have had one of those pretty rough days where you just want to crawl under the covers. Yes, believe it or not we all have those.
Rustle and Leaf have got a bunch of their own Eco Comics which will bring some zest into our dying Planet, well at least to us Humans living on it an way. Once we are a bit re vitalized then we can go off and start saving the Planet again on our usual rounds.
Oh and while you are at it don’t forget to recycle your stuff for the next garbage run. You don’t want me catching you out hehee. I hope you enjoy seeing the lighter shade of Green.
We all know that color has an effect on our moods and emotions but it is also used for healing too. If we use green as part of a holistic living approach we can also use it in color therapy to.
Green belongs to the heart chakra and is linked to love, harmony and balance. So painting rooms in your house this color can imbue a harmonious essence for all members of the Family to enjoy.
I found a wonderful site on green color therapy that I wanted to share with you so you can get even more in depth knowledge about what the color green can do for you and how through healing it can enhance your green living practices even further.
You can use green in meditation and breathing techniques or even by taking a walk in a green field you can re energize yourself to the fullest as you will find green so prominent in Nature itself. Green veggies are extremely healthy too, so adding plenty of green into your diet will work miracles.
Looking for the Green in your life will surely make a difference as green thinking takes hold, so will your life become a green paradise.
The Green Jobs revolution is well under way in different parts of the World that in its wake is wishing to address more than one issue, that is of going green in more ways than one. Eradicating both Global Warming and World poverty with the sword of green cutting edge jobs is coming to life. Ranging from high tech green technology to simple and more complex organic agricultural efforts is a zealous attempt by some forward thinking groups and individuals to propel the Next Generation into a newer way of living and thinking and it is working. Here in one Youtube video you will see how former homeless and hopeless individuals have been lifted out of a miserable existence and have not only been given an new lease of life but a healthy way to go about things in the process which is a double bonus.
Every person deserves his dignity and food on the table and the satisfaction of being able to grow your own food must be so satisfying to say the least.
I leave you with the quote from the Video by VAN JONES…
“we need a green economy that is strong enough to lift people out of poverty.”
Now that the World is more aware of the need for a greener living so also in the Workplace there has been a shift in temperament among many who are not satisfied with the way they are earning their daily crust. There are many now opting for more greener solutions in the working day as well as their living.
This is why so many, the World Over, are making the decisive move to work from home, not only to be their own boss but also to find ways of solving the Global Emissions problem at the same timeearning more in wages. Although the main incentive was financial independence and a chance to make more money than from a nine to five job, more and more people now have been blessed with the Green Idea of saving money on transport and other things as well as time which they could spend with their families and other pursuits.
We will be covering some Green careers and jobs too in the future which will be an interesting addition to our Green Idea. So stay tuned. There are also many companies now giving out green collar job listings so if you want to still work outside of the home there are many sites offering this greener aternative for employment.
I have been away and traveling so hence my blogging got delayed. I came from England to the U.S and Moved my Fiance back to Canada so you can imagine how tired I was with all the traveling and packing. It is great to be in a much greener and cleaner part of the World as Manhattan is very congested and I had to move Qiman back to a more serene and calm place.
This is more of a personal blog post but I am so pleased to say that recycling is very much on the list here in Toronto and I do it religiously every day, making sure the right things go in the right bins. At least here it is similar to m Prent’s place in Corby, U.K where they are very strict on recycling there too and it is equally green as Scarborough, Ontario.
I am hoping to visit all of my Lovely Friends’ blogs again and to do lots of commenting and buzzing love so hope you come and give me a virtual hug too.
I have really missed blogging big time but needed to get Qiman sorted out so I am relaxed enough to get on the blogging trail again. Here is to lots more green coming your way.
