Small Change Creates Big Impact

I am so excited to hear that Starbucks is opening a chain of raw vegan juice bars.  Why does this excite me?  Because, we all collectively helped to make this change in the food industry marketplace a reality!

Out with the old

This I believe is just the beginning of more wonderful major changes to the food industry marketplace.  People are tired of being fed, pushed and literally duped into products that are terrible to our short and long term health.  Chemicals and preservatives that where touted as safe and even good for you for decades are proving to not only be unsafe but have been linked to many degenerative diseases, heart attack, strokes, cancer and an epidemic in diabetes in adults and our children as young as 10 years old.

Small Change Creates Big Impact

This is just one example of how we the consumer can create change in the marketplace one small purchase at a time.  I, just like a lot of people get frustrated with the big corporations having so much power in our marketplace, government and food system.  We just want to throw our hands up in the air and say “There is nothing I can do I am just one person”, “What can I possibly do against these corporations or mega agriculture”, “Nobody cares about us we are just a dollar sign”.  I am sure many of you have felt and thought the same way and you could probably add many more sentences to the list of defeating thoughts.  I also had my doubts when I read how we could impact the market and bring change simply by supporting our local farmers market, consumer supported agriculture programs, purchasing organic  meats, fruits and vegetables as often as possible and making small but consistent changes to our diet and lifestyle to bring about change. For instance adding vitamin supplementation daily can have a great impact on your health as it did for mine.


How could I, making these small but consistent changes affect the marketplace and the food industry?  
  
Well, as you can see by the article below collectively we can bring about change.  Together, when we put our money where we want to see and demand change we will get results.  It may not be tomorrow, it may not be next year, but as the momentum grows as they say at The Institute For Integrative Nutrition we create a ripple effect that cannot be stopped.
Creating Change

What can we learn from this marketplace change that can be applied to our everyday life? 

Not only does putting your money where you want to see change effect the market place it affects your health and lifestyle as well.  Change doesn’t have to be big, painful, sad or even quick.  Change is often looked upon in a negative way but what we need to do is redirect our thought pattern and start to see, feel and view change as an opportunity for growth and fulfillment.  Creating a change can be fun, exciting, small or big, quick or slow depending on your particular needs and situation. 

No two people are completely alike, but we all have areas in our lives that need our attention and change in order to produce a healthy, happy, vibrant life that we all desire.  That’s where I come in; I am a Holistic Health Coach for that very reason.  I desire to meet you where you are today, who you are today and guide you to who you want to be and where you want to go with your health one step at a time.  Schedule a free health consultation today to get started on this life changing, fun, exciting journey.
