HOUSE CLEANING

The quality of the environment inside our homes is only one factor in maintaining good health.

Just a few pointers:

Have a look in your house and choose non-toxic, eco-friendly cleaners.

Seriously question yourself if you really need those five TV’s, four computers, two microwaves, four video games … you get the picture.

Have a look in your basement or around your windows for new visitors that may have grown this winter.

What about those fifteen year old carpets or pillows?

The inside of your car may need a good scrubbing too. Visitors can grow there too.

What about your body?

No matter how hard we try to exercise and eat right in the winter, our bodies seem to slow down anyway. Spring is a great time to cleanse it and take out the cobwebs. Make a plan. Cleansing with food is the best method. Lots and lots of filtered or purified water. Juicing with high antioxidant fruits and vegetables is a great start. This does not mean that you deprive your body of food. Decide if you prefer a series of short cleanses or a longer cleanse. Everyone is unique. Find what is right for you. Consult a registered nutritionist for a plan that will fit your needs.
