YOU'RE WORTH IT!

In some ways I worry that I sound like an extremist with my Organic journey. Some people are jaded and have doubts about what I am doing. I am truly organic based on a trust system. I have to trust when the restaurants and farmers say they are giving me foods that not have been modified or hormone ridden until I learn to educate myself better.

But I can't deny the weight that I have been losing, the sleep that my body demands, the toxin bumps that are coming out in various places, the lack of a need to occasionally binge....all while under a great deal of stress. There has to be something said for that.

Eating Organic is only difficult now because there isn't a demand. People are sometimes afraid to demand what they think they deserve. I feel like I deserve to know what is in my food and make choices for myself. I shouldn't have to move back to Kentucky and start growing my own garden to know for sure what I'm getting.

The question is how can we make Organic practical? We are a society that has no time and fast food has made us lazy (not that I hardly touched fast food), but it's the other food that I worry about.

The other factor that people constantly bring up is cost. Well that I have found to be pretty simple. We eat too much here in the United States. What happened to quality and not quantity? I am satisfied with a lot less food these days than ever before. That is because my body is satisfied and doesn't feel the need to eat enormous portions. So far the cost of food comes out to be the same if not even less than I would normally pay!!!

Don't get me wrong. THIS IS A LOT OF WORK!, but if I feel like this is making a difference for someone like me then I don't mind doing the work for everyone else.

Just like L'oreal says- because you're worth it!
