Cost versus benefit in respect to health, environmental impacts and budget is a balancing act.  All are values and have priority.  Today I will talk about two habits I have developed that are an investment into my long term health.  Without health life can be very difficult, and limit one's freedom.
Health
Hot Yoga
I invest in weekly Bikhram Yoga.  Its my time for my body. It provides a great rate of return. I sweat and release toxins. I am so dang hot that I finally relax. My body becomes toned and my posture improves. I gained 20 lb after the birth of dd1, and have not been able to shed it.  The cost is $50 a month. I am still tightening my budget so the Hot Yoga funds are not readily available.  
Juicing
I juice carrots, kale, parsley and celery every morning for breakfast. It is time consuming, and creates a real mess of vegetables, and juicer parts. The cost is about $30 a week.  I feel great.  It gives me energy, provides nutrients and aid in detoxification.   It provides 16 oz of fluids and my skin glows. I look ten years younger according to my dear mother.  Better than any beauty cream or celebrity beauty secret.
