It seems like yoga etc. dominates the green scene's acceptable options for staying in shape. But I just don't get why these fitness options are more "green" than running.

Organic Ground Premium Flaxseed I don't eat fish, and I recently read that people who eat enough omega 3s are less likely to be depressed. Flax seeds have omega 3s in them, so I though what the heck I'll try eating it in my buckwheat cereal in the morning.
It's important to get ground flax seeds because if they're not ground up...

it left me shrugging It's cool this chocolate is organic. But it's not the best tasting. I don't think the mint is as pepperminty as it could be, and the chocolate is kind of waxy. I think there are better mint chocolates out there, like endangered species.
It's also good to mix mint extract in chocolate chip cookie...

get the juices flowing We have one of these in our office. I find that it helps me to go jump for a few minutes when I'm tired, stressed, or anxious. It's also good after a long meeting where you've been sitting and sitting and sitting...
I'm not sure why this is sustainable. Exercise helps a person be sustainable, so...

good and close by They have a location a couple blocks from my office. So, while there are about 3 Starbucks and at least 1 Peets in the same radius, I can go to this one organic coffee shop for a treat. I don't drink coffee, ever (me + caffeine = bad) but I do love a good hot chocolate, and good muffins.
Their...

i am curly! My sister bought a tube of this for my for my birthday. Like most Aveda products, it smells pretty good, and I think it works pretty good too. More than anything, it helps to tame frizziness in my curly hair. While it's in no way crunchy, and not very sticky once it dries, you can tell that there is...

I'm addicted. I've been using this face wash for about a year now, and I have no complaints. It's not sudsy at all, so it's very gently and doesn't have any foaming agents in it. It's also paraben free, because they use a method that turns the aloe into a powder that doesn't require a preservative to stay fresh...

Inner Light Concealer I've said it before in other reviews, but I am not a big makeup person (part laziness, part lack of application talent). But for special occasions, I purchased this concealer. It is one of those that is like lip gloss with the wand and the tube. It's made with natural ingredients and some are...

Inner Light Loose Powder This powder has mostly natural and some organic ingredients. I barely wear stuff like this, so I'm pretty picky that my face not feel like it's covered in stickiness or cake, and I don't feel this way when I use this powder. It's very light, and when applied with a big brush goes on evenly and stays...

sun protection & evens out skin I'm not a big makeup wearer, but for special occasions I picked up this tinted moisturizer. It really does make a difference evening out my skin tone, and feels pretty good as it goes on. I like that there's an SPF factor as well. Some of the ingredients in the moisturizer are organic, and it comes...
