As the saying goes: we are products of our environment. Aside from our workplace, our homes are our chief environments and we have much more influence at home than at work when it comes to the quality of the environment. Did you know that the quality of the air in your home environment might be just as polluted if not more than the air outside? “But there’s no car traffic inside my home! How could my home air be polluted?!” you may ask? Turns out air pollution, indoor or out, comes from a few different sources (yes, including cars) and the ones I’d like to focus on right now are the ones that can have a negative impact on our home environments specifically. Daily choices we make about personal care and cleaning products have huge influence on the quality and health of our home environment. And if we are products of our environment (which we’ve already established) then you’re going to want to read on, dear reader!
Not all tequilas are created equal. I repeat: not all tequilas are created equal! The spirit has a long history in its native country of Mexico, and was originally referred to as vino de mezcal when Spanish colonizers arrived and discovered the people native to the land drinking a drink, then called pulque, that they distilled from the agave plant. We fawn over wine producers, inquire as to the conditions in which our meat is raised before it meets our plate, and obsess over farmers market produce. I’m here to make the case that the quality and integrity of the tequila and mezcal you drink should be considered with the same degree of care and respect.
Health is wealth. Wealth is abundance. Abundance is everywhere. It is infinite. It is the truth of the universe. Therefore, by the transitive property of LiveMadWell, health is the truth of who we are when we are embodied, self-actualized, and whole. It is our essence, just like our spirit is. You follow?
