Healthy Home Consulting | Mold Toxicity | Non-Toxic Living
There is a saying that “you can’t heal in the same environment you got sick’…
This sentiment is true to some extent, but I no longer believe it means you have to necessarily pack-up and leave your current home, there are many lifestyle and environmental changes you can make to help transform your home health and ultimately, your overall wellness.
We spend a great deal of time in our homes these days. Our home can either support us or drain us. This is due to the inundation of toxins and health hazards that exist in our modern world and homes.
You live and you learn…
My family firsthand learned about the importance of a healthy home after experiencing chronic illness and injuries due to hidden toxic mold and toxic gas exposure in our home as a result of improper/against code ventilation work completed by a licensed contractor.
Due to living with undetected toxin exposures and health hazards in our home for nearly three years, I went through a myraid of scary and debilitating symptoms including: chronic shingles infections, eczema and cystic acne, optic neuritis and vision loss, ear damage and tinnitus, weight gain and inflammation, mast cell activation and chemical sensitivity, and nerve damage, to name a few. Our son also went through mast cell activation and neurological symptoms from the toxin exposures.
The fact of the matter is, mistakes happen, and they happen more often than you think when it comes to home construction and handyman repairs. Also, home construction today consists of cheaper materials, quicker labor, and tighter homes that can’t breathe due to energy efficiency guidelines.
Additionally, because in many states mold professionals do not have to be licensed to do the work, there are many companies out there who aren’t properly trained, cut corners, or are truly just uninformed with regards to mold inspection and remediation in relation to health. This causes many homeowners to be misled, problems to be overlooked, and paves the way for failed remediation or worse mold issues down the road.
Take ownership back over your home health
As a homeowner, you have an opportunity to take back control of your home and protect your family’s future health by learning more about the home health hazards that exist, how to resolve them, and ultimately how to prevent them.
There are many simple changes we can make as consumers with regards to the products and materials we bring into our homes, which can make a huge difference in toxin exposures and give our body a safer space to reside. Simple swaps in the bathroom, kitchen, and cleaning supply closet can have a lasting positive impact on the quality of your home’s environment and your overall health. I can help guide you in all of these areas and more!
