If you want to reduce your #environmentalimpact under the sheets try not to get stuck in the past and look forward to choosing conscious choices even in bed.
To help you in orientation, do not miss reading "Eco-Sex" (http://ecosex.net/) by Stefanie Iris Weiss (can be found as stefanieiris on instagram https://www.instagram.com/stefanieiris/).
With clarity and irony, Stefanie talks about how the "sustainability issue" is not only practicable but also advisable in terms of sexuality.

As always, every little choice affects: from vegan and natural #condoms to #fairtrade condoms such as those of Einhorn, Glyde or Fair Squared (available online).
In terms of #lubricants, the story to follow is similar to that of #cosmetics: better to choose them without parabens, paraffins or synthetic substances, then here are the lubricants totally green and ecofriendly.
A totally green, ecofriendly and vegan watery lubricant ? nothing easier :)
We can even prepare it with our own hands: #diy, here are the ingredients that will endure you:
-distilled water
-vegetable glycerine
-xanthan gum
And here's the #recipe :
Mix in a glass of distilled water in which we have dissolved
1 teaspoon of vegetable glycerin and 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum.
Leave to moisturize for 5 minutes and this our fresh, natural and ready-to-use lubricant is made.
Warning: it does not contain preservatives so it is kept in the fridge for a maximum of 3 days then it should be thrown away ... but no fear is totally biodegradable!

If what we want is a ready-made lubricant, then there is "Jalus Love" from Fitocose (http://www.fitocose.it/cosmetici_naturali/jalus-love-organic-natural-standard.aspx?id=5775) , totally green, #ecofriendly, #vegan and #natural.
If what we need is a #massage oil and that the need also turns into an oily lubricant, nothing more immediate and simple than resorting to two vegetable and completely natural butters like #organic #coconut butter or that of shea too organic and both to be chosen for food quality.
Then let's not forget the #sextoys and then here they are rechargeable, biodegradable, without phthalates or toxic substances.
"Fun factory" (http://www.shopfunfactory.it/) is certainly a place to find games made with the highest quality materials, safe because in medical silicone and non-porous plastic patented and completely created without the use of toxic chemicals. Furthermore they are totally made in Germany.

But still online you can find sex toys not only without #phthalates but also in natural materials such as glass or wood just peek between the eco section (http://www.adultsextoys.com/eco-friendly-sex-toys).
But not only of sex toys you live, it is important to also use excellent #training tools for a healthy and happy vagina, an example are the #kegelballs to keep fit the perineum and the muscles of the pelvic floor, you can also find online from the girls of the Shop "la bottega della luna" (http://www.labottegadellaluna.it/).
In short, the way to choose a green and conscious sexuality is there and it is also easy to put into practice.

Speaking of knowledge of one 's own body, of independence and freedom, the new' XConfessions' project by #ErikaLust ( https://erikalust.com/ ) reminds us that #feminism sometimes also passes through unorthodox projects.
She is a director who is not new to projects of short films and movies with a strong feminine and conscious feeling, even if she finds herself in the field of #erotic cinema, so strange for once to succeed in debunking myths and legends of an environment so masculine.

Finally, let's not forget the question of #lingerie and pantyhose: as for clothes here too, perhaps even more in reality, you have to pay close attention to the choice of production #quality as well as mere design.
Opting for natural or at least #sustainablematerials that comply with toxicity control standards such as basic Reach is a very important choice for both our health and the environment.
From Stella Mc Cartney to lilipiache up to clarebare, to luvahuva or larkspurla, there are many names linked to the sexy, sustainable, safe, green and truly wonderful lingerie.

But now let's think a little about the atmosphere: to make the place and the moment we choose more special, a mix of #essentialoils to harmonize the environment to be used in simple burns, as well as of course a suitable soundtrack, will be that will do for us.
We forget the old and outdated history of foods or aphrodisiac substances, it is the mind at the bottom of the true aphrodisiac we have, let's not forget it, so here comes the smell: he, among all five our senses, is the most closely linked to the instinct.
We opt for essential oils suitable for the case:
jasmine
patchouli
rose
ylang ylang
sandal
...will be able to make unique every moment allowing you to recall at any time the memory of what we experienced, just "savor" that smell precisely for be catapulted back to them.
After all, how not to mention the saving of #water in choosing to share the shower, a great way to start the day!
Now you really have no more excuses and you just have to be spoiled for choice to start your #greenrevolution in the bedroom: among all the sustainable methods whatever you choose remember that the green is always good with everything ... and the sheets do not they are certainly an exception!
