I’ve been trying to renovate
my house for the past three years
and I’ve had a load of clothes
bagged up for charity since
January, but there’s something
about the beginning of springthat sparks new joy into clearing out the old and
starting afresh for the new season. That’s why
we’ve packed this issue with plenty of eco tips
on how to make your spring clean a little greener.
From the best ways to recycle your clothes, to
homemade natural cleaning recipes, we’ve
sought out the best advice for a low-tox life.
And, if you’re like me and haven’t quite got into
a routine yet, the lighter nights bring new optimism
for healthy habits. There’s nourishing breakfasts on
page 13, meat-free lunches to take to work on page
16 (including our gorgeous cover star), and we’ve got
expert tips on how to turn your weekend beach clean
or weeding the garden into an eco workout (p84).
Whatever your new-season start looks like – enjoy!
