About Me

Hello.  My name is Lisa and I live in St. Louis County with my husband of 17 years.  We have two children, ages 10 and 12, respectively.  I became interested in living a more mindful life after I began my research on trying to improve my health.  I say "mindful" because I feel I was on auto-pilot and wasn't aware that the choices I was making for myself and my family could be harming us and the envrionment.  So I changed my ways...and changed them in a big way!

By taking baby steps, I was able to introduce a greener way of living, and it now has become part of everyday living.  I started this blog because many of my friends were asking me about different things regarding their health and about how to live a greener life.  They didn't want to abadoning their current lifestyle, but they knew some of the choices they made were not friendly to the Earth or their health.  St. Louis has an enormous resource for living a more sustainable, healthy lifestyle, so my goal for this blog is to provide that information in one place.

I hope you enjoy reading STL Eco Family and hope you find the resources you need to make the change.
