  • This is one of our rare impulse buys 🤪! We bought this at the opening for the second @tanteolgakoeln #zerowaste shop (unpaid, unsponsored ad/Werbung). Unlike before, shopping isn’t a big part of our routines anymore. • We used to buy most of our groceries on a whim on our way home, without knowing what was sitting in our fridge and pantry at home. This meant we ended up buying things we already had enough of at home, or ended up not getting things we actually needed. Which in turn meant we had to go to the store yet another time. So in the end we went to the store maybe 4 times a week just because we were unorganized and didn’t have a system 😅... • As I keep posting here, we now only buy fresh groceries (basically produce) once a week 🍎🥬, usually at the farmers market. We restock everything else only once every 4-8 weeks, a habit from back when we didn’t have access to bulk dry goods. Back then, it took us 2h to get to the next bulk store using public transportation 🚞🚌(we don’t have a car and don’t want one). So we always restocked when we had business in that area anyway, which was usually once every 4-8 weeks. • This system was a GAME CHANGER 😁! It took a few weeks to get used to it, but then It cut down our food waste to zero! Did you know that in most industrial countries, we throw away 20-25% of what we buy—on average!—even though it would have still been safe to eat?? Talk about wasteful and irresponsible, huh! #wastenotwantnot • We also quit (window) shopping, because we already had so much more than what we needed and wanted to focus on decluttering instead. So now we don’t have the habit to buy useless stuff anymore, and put the time it freed up into more meaningful things 💚! • I love how @hannahsplasticproject put it when we met in person in 2016 💕: “My impulse buys have become so much more affordable! Like, a broccoli 🥦 here or some carrots 🥕 there...” 🤣
  • True love is one of the things money can't buy ❤️, so why give in to all that commercial 💩 around #valentinesday? Doesn't mean you can't have a romantic day though! Here are my tips 😁! • COOK UP A NICE CANDLE LIGHT DINNER Ingredients necessary: local, seasonal, organic veggies from your local farmers market bread from a local bakery or pasta from the bulk aisle some elbow grease fossil-fuel-free candles (e.g. vegan candles made from soy, or industrial grease waste, check your local health food store) the secret ingredient: LOVE 🤪 • EXPERIENCES OVER STUFF Yes, get ready for coupons!! For back rubs, taking over some chores that falls into your partners responsibilities, going for a hike, a picknick, checking out a museum (if that's your groove), or just Netflix & chill, or a massage (olive oil + essential oils make a great massage oil) 😘. Or you go for something more spectacular like concert tickets, or some other event. Get creative! • HOW ABOUT A POTTED PLANT 🌿INSTEAD OF CUT FLOWERS💐 Cut flowers are usually full of pesticides and often imported from faraway places, because people want roses all year round (=off-season). Besides, aren't these flowers literally DYING 👻?? Consider potted plants instead! These are still full of life and will grow and not wilt (well, potentially LOL)! If you are set on cut flowers, look for locally grown, seasonal organic flowers. • GO FOR VINTAGE JEWELRY, IF ANY💍 Mining gold, diamonds, etc. is an extremely polluting and dangerous business that often involves wars, slavery, and child labor! You don’t need all that bling ✨anyway, you’re FABULOUS the way you are 💕😉
  • //unbezahlte Werbung This is my #zerowaste dental care set 😁🦷✨! (👆Swipe to see what is what) • It does not include interdental brushes YET, because I am still trying to get my hands on more sustainable options without having to order them online (I’ll probably go for the ones by @swakdentalcare). Until then I am using these unsightly plastic ones I already bought. • Please note that my dental care routines might seem over the top to you. This is because I have had paradontitis (= very bad gums) since I was a teenager (probably longer even). In my case it’s hereditary, and as my dentists so far have all told me: there is no margin for mistakes 😅. (While the same dentists tell Hanno flossing is recommended, but in his case optional – no fair 😭!) • My new dental hygienist has recommended adding interdental brushes bc they are more effective at removing plaque than floss (but don’t replace floss!). So I start my evening routine with the dental brushes. Next comes flossing. I am (still) using compostable silk floss, even though it’s not vegan 😢. • ++Before I am flooded with comments on this 😉: I know there have been brands with supposedly compostable vegan floss popping up, but none of the ones I have reached out to has been able to give me details on what their floss is made out of (besides “bamboo”), if the floss is truly biodegradable or only breaks down into microplastic, and they have never replied to my questions whether they have had this tested 😬. So far it was too fishy for me to jump on, especially after many supposedly vegan compostable brushes on bamboo toothbrushes turned out to be plastic a while back.++ • Then I brush my teeth with the bamboo toothbrush and a dental tab (w/flouride). During the day I use baking soda + xylitol. After that I use either the miswak stick or my swak (=miswak on a handle) to remove the plaque from the hard to reach places. Miswak is a traditional teeth cleaning twig from the Arabian peninsula. Neem sticks are the Indian version from a different tree. • Then I scrape my tongue and go for my homemade mouthwash (👉recipe in my book and I also posted it somewhere on IG before), and I am finally done✨!
  • Another #farmersmarket #zerowaste #groceryhaul 😁💚! You know, only a few years back there were so many things that never even crossed my mind! • Now we try to buy from small, local, owner-run stores or directly from the producers (i.e. the farmers) to support our local economy. Whenever possible, we try to cut out the middleman so these local heroes can actually earn a living from it 💪💚! #supportyourlocalfarmer • Another, less obvious change is that we switched back to paying CASH ONLY 💵. Have you ever thought of who actually benefits from paying cashless? It's the service providers, i.e. big banks, Apple, Google, Paypal, etc.! They take a cut from the vendor whenever we pay cashless. Most small businesses that try to do good and give back to their community are usually struggling to stay afloat. Paying cash doesn't cost us extra, but they get to make a bit more money on what they put so much effort in! • Psst... A nice side effect of paying cash only is that it can simplify budgeting. We only take what we are prepared to spend in cash with us, so we don't go over budget. And when pay with bills and coins instead of a plastic card, you actually feel like you spent REAL money, so you are less likely to overspend!
  • COLD (PREVENTION) REMEDY 👉 Repost @glownatur 📷 + recipe 💚 • If you came down with a cold or want to prevent just that from happening, this recipe is for you! As many of you know, I’m a firm believer of prevention over treatment. But I, too, often struggle with my own advice 😂 LOL. • I overworked myself for the most part of 2018 and the moment I took a break (before Christmas), I came down with the flu 😭! Instead of taking medicine, I went with a lot of rest, a lot of herbal tea (mostly chamomile and sage), some fruit (for the vitamins), and a cold washcloth on the forehead/ wet towels around my calves whenever the fever was too high (feels gross but it’s very effective). The only medicine I took was nose spray so I could sleep. • I can tell you, those were two nasty weeks I didn’t enjoy, at all! Now I am taking better care of my health again. I get more sleep 😴, and am learning to say no so my schedule isn’t too crammed 👍. • ✨RECIPE by @glownatur✨ For ~10 shots (400ml): ❶ Juice 3 lemons ➋ Blend lemon + 100g (~3.5 oz) ginger + 100ml (6-7 tbsp) agave syrup • You can keep it in the fridge for 4-6 days, take 1 shot per day. (Only make half the amount if you make it for just yourself to prevent food waste 😉). It’s best to eat something first to make sure you’re not upsetting your stomach. • We don’t usually buy lemons 🍋 (or citrus fruits in general) because they don’t grow in this climate zone. We do buy ginger though, but try to keep it minimal. Anyway, if you’ve been following me, you know I am a big fan of the 80/20 rule. We’re far from perfect (duh!), but we try to stick to what’s more sustainable for the staples (80%), and make what’s not sustainable a treat (20%), e.g. most of the time I drink herbal tea (from local species) and only have green/black tea or coffee as a treat. Or: We don’t buy avocados or citrus, so we don’t have it at home, but when we eat out it’s not a deal breaker (because, let’s face it, it can be difficult enough to get vegan food as is—adding organic, locally grown and seasonal into the mix PLUS my food allergies just won’t work 😅). • I will definitely try this recipe as a cold prevention remedy 🌿!
  • Last week I've talked about how I have been washing my hair with water only 💦💁‍♀️💁‍♂️ (+ an apple cider vinegar rinse). The key to making this method work is to brush your hair extensively every day and to give your scalp a nice massage. 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️ • It's something I tend to forget, because I don't usually even brush my hair every day (I like the messy hair look LOL). • The brushing helps distribute the natural oils of your hair evenly. Once your whole hair is coated, it will never smell again, says my inspiration @paris_to_go, and I can confirm it 😊. • However, it is important to use a brush or comb made from a natural material. Plastic won't work, because the surface is too smooth, so your scalp's natural oils will not stick to it. • The brush I posted last week is vegan, with a wooden handle with agave fibers instead of boar bristles 🐗. It's for thin hair, so it doesn't actually work with my extremely thick hair (it's Hanno's brush). • This is what I use-- a wooden comb for thick hair or afros. There are also brushes with wooden pins. • The scalp massage helps your scalp regulate the production of natural oils. Shampoo is very invasive, it removes almost all of your scalp's (and your skin's) natural oils that it needs as a protective barrier. So our scalp is used to producing a lot of oil to compensate for the loss every time we shampoo our hair. Going #nopoo means your scalp doesn't have to produce this much oil anymore. But it takes time for it to get used to it, and the scalp massage can help. • #zerowaste #beawastelandrebel #wastelandrebel #plasticfree #savetheplanet #savetheoceans #plasticfreeoceans #sustainablepractice #sustainability #notrash #wastenotwantnot #noplastic #gogreen #nachhaltig #zerodechet #zerowastevegan #govegan #zerowastelife #zerowastelifestyle #nomoreplastic #wastefree #unverpackt #lowimpactmovement #minimalwaste #goingzerowaste #gogreenorgohome #lowwaste #lesswaste
