Alicia Silverstone may have been perfectly type cast for Clueless, but she is anything but. The actress is actually about as down-to-earth and intelligent as it gets. She seeks to live a balanced life adhering to personal morals and the power of purchase and action. The good news is, she has created a way to share these ideals with all of us, making our own quest a little bit easier.

Her book, The Kind Diet has just been released and reveals a lifestyle that promotes natural eating with a macrobiotic influence a la Gwenyth Paltrow and Madonna. Her mission to bring kindness to oneself and thus the world does not rest solely with food. She has also launched a website- The Kind Life- with categories of food, health, house, style and environment. Plus, she takes it one step further with an open forum where you can post questions and contribute to conversations. I’ve definitely bookmarked this one as another well-being resource and am excited to watch its evolution. I hope you do the same. ;)
