“Cleaning house” – a new definition

I’ve been actively in the process of maintaining a healthy mind and body. 

Next step? A healthy HOME!

Household cleaning products can range from relatively safe to quite toxic, depending on their ingredients and how they are used. Potential hazards can include –

• Health risks, like respiratory irritation
• Dangerous chemical reactions
• Poisoning
• Long-term exposures linked to hormonal disruptions, cancer, liver or kidney damage, and reproductive toxicity 
• Environmental damage, such as to our water and our wildlife 

When a lump was recently found on my breast and I was sent for a mammogram, ultrasound, and genetic bloodwork to test for cancers (all negative!), I had a true wake-up call. I changed up my supplements, kicked my diet and workout regimen into high gear, and cleaned out my cabinets. 

I’m so happy to now get my cleaning products (and beyond!) from a wellness store that ONLY carries ingredients that are –

• SAFE
• NATURAL
• NON-TOXIC
• EFFECTIVE
• ECO-FRIENDLY
• CLEAN
• AFFORDABLE

I love all these adjectives!

This store has been around for 30+ years and is based in innovative scientific research. USA Today recently recognized it as a Most Trusted Brand for 2025! Say what?!

My father always used to tell me to “control the controllables.” We can never predict the future and what it will bring, but we can certainly do our best to make healthy decisions about our minds, bodies, and homes. I’m grateful to be on this path, and even more grateful that I have the ability to share it. 

Once again, thank you for being in this space with me.
