Take care of yourself and the planet with these simple self-care tips

While the pressure to live more sustainably is a huge commitment, it should not deter you from leading a more planet-loving lifestyle. Oftentimes the little things we choose to do can make a lasting impact over time. 

With that in mind, here are some simple self-care tips that can benefit both you and the environment.

Switch to coffee beans

Nothing beats a good cup of joe in the morning, during work breaks, or even at night. You probably have a line of instant coffee packets in your pantry right now. However, those same coffee packets, which are most often made with non-sustainable materials like plastic, contribute to excessive waste in the environment. Try switching to ground or whole coffee beans and make a delicious cup with the use of a good French press. Not only do they taste (and smell) better than their instant counterparts, but you can also lessen your use of plastic. You also help support local coffee farmers when you buy their produce directly.
