It started like this. We looked around and noticed changes in the way people were living their lives. It seemed these changes were coming from a few sources: a growing awareness of the state of our planet to what foods we eat; an interest in yoga and inner peace to an exploration of alternative wellness ideas...but there was a central thread: healthy living.

We also noticed there wasn't a central place to connect all these interests. That's why we created LIME. Healthy living with a Twist.

At LIME, we built a place where you can find all the ideas, information and resources to inspire you to live healthier and help make our planet greener - and have some fun while you're at it.

We're all about simplicity and community. We thrive on the explosive opportunities we all have to connect our lives, ideas, thoughts and inspirations in today's new online and mobile world. From a network of bloggers expressing their opinions and interests to our LIME community members and staff of editors...our content is a living, breathing thing where all views are welcome and information is shared.

Post comments, ask questions, and connect with others who share your values, your dreams, and your questions. Maybe your assumptions will be challenged...or you'll challenge someone else's. With LIME, you can always speak your mind, free of judgments and political correctness. We value opinions because they help us figure out what's right for us.

If you haven't noticed from our homepage, LIME is available to you when and where you want it. So you can find us on your cell phone or your iPod and of course, here on our site. We hope you'll check out our video area...it's full of great clips covering almost every topic you can think of relating to healthy living for you and our planet.

In August of 2007, LIME was acquired by GAIAM, Inc — a healthy lifestyle media and retail company with a focus on personal development, natural health and eco-lifestyles. GAIAM boasts an incredible library of DVDs, apparel, home goods, personal care products and magazines. We're thrilled to be a part of such an influential, established and well-respected company.
