What should you invest in? What is the number one, easiest thing you can do to save money and make a safe investment with your money? FOOD! I’m no economist by any means, but what else could be a better, safer, more self sustainable investment than investing in something that is a major aspect to your survival. It is a very satisfying feeling to walk out into your garden (hopefully soon this will be year round for me) and pick healthy fruits and vegetables for your upcoming meal.
The price of food, fresh fruits and vegetables, has increased 20% over the last 2 years. Besides the potential for saving money on fresh produce, growing your own fresh fruits and vegetables has many other benefits.
So here is my first “Top Ten List”. This list will be kind of an introduction into some of the first topics I will be writing on and also attempting to implement into everyday life. My first posts will be topics from this list (not necessarily in the order from 1 to 10). This is by no means a complete and/or easiest list. These are just the steps I feel are the most important to me and my family to living sustainably.
The athletic body type, in my opinion, is the ideal and most practical body type to have. Most athletes (I will expand on this later) are on average fast, strong, have high endurance, and are very agile. So what does being athletic or having an athletic body type have to do with sustainable living? All of the athletic characteristics above are very important functional traits for survival in biological terms. The body type of an athlete is a result of his/hers training and diet (well…also genetics but you get the idea). In order to maintain their fitness they have to train hard with certain techniques and have a good balanced healthy diet.
In order to better serve the interests of readers and help me in providing more closely related post topics, I am in the process of starting another blog. Dharma Fitness Path is my new blog specific to health and fitness information, tips, and experiences.
