Hello friends!  For the past ten years, Doctored Designs has been researching and defining what it is to be a Conscious Consumer.  What we have learned are three very important truths: 1) being a Conscious Consumer is like a deeper level of think before you buy, 2) being a Conscious Consumer is a process that is always evolving and never finished, and 3) life patterns identify the way in which we consume stuff (think of time, ideas, philosophies, air, relationships, food, etc.) Therefore, the definition and our work will always be evolving, and this is what we have concluded so far...

• Consumption begins with personal awareness.

• All consumption requires an  of investment resources.

• Conscious Consumption leads to greater independence.
