My journey of nontoxic living
I sat, dumbfounded, in my friend’s living room as the consultant asked, “Did you know it only takes 26 seconds for a toxin you put on your skin to enter your bloodstream?”
Twenty. Six. Seconds.
That was so eye-opening to me and I started taking inventory of what I was using on a day-to-day basis. Shampoo, deodorant, laundry detergent, soap, mascara. Then (in my typical Type A, enneagram 1 fashion) I started researching what was in my products so I could read the labels better. I was shocked at how many toxins I was using EVERY SINGLE DAY! I started throwing them out which forced me to find more natural brands with products whose ingredients I could pronounce.
A few years later, I narrowed down a lot of frustrating symptoms I was having to Adrenal Fatigue. Through diet and many environmental changes I was able to heal my body. Removing products that included parabens, sulfates and fragrance played a large role in that.
Now, my husband and my little girl are my “why”, the reason I read labels and am selective about what comes into our home.
Our health is so worth it and it starts with me.
