Living Naturally in North Louisiana is an online support group for people attempting to live a more natural life.

Join us in developing new friendships while we share information and experiences, ask questions, and support each other in areas that may include but are not limited to these areas:

Health/Nutrition: healthy eating/health food, vegetarianism, natural healing, holistic medicine/healing, alternative medicine, exercise and staying active through outdoor recreation, organic gardening, locally grown produce, respectfully hunting and/or raising your own animals, whole/natural/minimally processed foods

Family/Children: homeschooling, unschooling, play groups, attachment parenting, breastfeeding, natural childbirth, slings/baby wearing, family bed, cloth diapers, unconditional parenting

Environment: environmental sustainability, permaculture, green building, natural building, reducing/reusing/recycling, getting off-the-grid, solar/wind/hydro power, biodiesel/alternative fuels, solar heating/cooling, composting, earth-sheltered homes, rainwater harvesting, respect/concern for nature, biodegradable/non-toxic products

Misc.: pursuit of one's dreams, fair trade certified goods, cohousing, building your own home, do-it-yourselfers, self-sufficiency, world cultures/food/faiths

No one person on this list is going to have an interest in all of these things, but there may be others that can direct you in the right direction to pursue your interest or you may inspire others with your interest and knowledge. Since our interests are alternative and new to the mainstream, it can be hard to find information, support and resources in these areas. We hope this list can offer some assistance to us all.
