Slow Living....or as we like to say A Flow State !

Slow Living....or as we like to say A Flow State !

Years and years ago in the days of share-houses and uni, I was amused by one of my house-mates, Amber, who was far more organised than me. She would buy her weekly budget of food at the markets in the city, prepare and chop all her fruit and veggies into containers for the week, then rinse the plastic bags and hang them on the line to dry. I thought she was a bit mad!! I realise now, she was ahead of her time and had a perfect weekly Flow, that allowed her to Refuse more plastic, Reuse what she had and thereby Reduce waste.

Mini urban hippies showing us the way

Our littl’uns are seriously good at showing us the way. And let’s face it this planet is going to be theirs, long after we’ve started turning into worm food. Take for example one of the kids hanging at the office after school at That Red House…..”Mum”, she says “you know we grow with water, just like plants.” Bring it on! We are basically plants with emotions! We fare well with daily doses of water, sunshine and positive actions. This way we grow happily, starting from our intentions, just like our kids. Our little people REALLY are magical humans!! Now back to the...

Slugs, snails, worms, bugs... get your kids elbow deep in dirt!

Back in the day, when the sun was out. So were the kids. We simply HAD to go outside to play. No if's. No butts. You went outside and didn't come back in until it was lunch time and then again for dinner. When the sun was out, the street was filled with kids riding bikes, playing cricket, kicking the footy, playing chasey... it was freaaaaking amazing! I admit we don't live in the same world we did 30 years ago - and there is one major difference between my childhood and my kids.
