Good, Better and BEST

Healthy choices and decisions should progress in a continuum of good, better, and best. Swinging from one extreme to another is not sustainable at all. You can’t just move from unhealthy drive-through meals to eating organic, Non-GMO foods grown in the Himalayan mountains. You have to progress in the direction of better decisions by making small steps while keeping it really simple. The idea of traveling up the continuum of good, better, and best applies to many aspects of our life. Someone who has been drinking soda all their life will be much better off drinking water even if is from the tap or a plastic bottle. Telling them about reverse osmosis filters and BPA in water bottles will just overcomplicate it for them. They’ll eventually travel up the continuum. A good way of starting in the continuum of good is by looking at your life. What is it that you do every day? What do you consume a lot of? Can you make better choices with it? A great example for Cristy and Cari is makeup. How can we make better choices with it? Maybe fewer chemicals, nontoxic, gluten-free healthy base, etc. These small decisions will help you subtly up your health game and move in the right direction without doing anything crazy.
