Rainy weather, mould, dehumidifiers and air purifiers

First of all I’d like to acknowledge those affected by floods and those experiencing the trauma of war in Ukraine. It is an intense time on the planet and my thoughts and prayers are with those afflicted with trauma both near and far.  

The incessantly damp and humid weather we are experiencing across the eastern seaboard of Australia makes it a perfect breeding ground for mould! Our dehumidifier and air purifier run all day in our bedroom (which is sub terrain and prone to dampness)  except when we are sleeping. It’s so humid that the dehumidifier fills up every single day with 5L of water (which I then use on indoor plants and excess gets down drain as plants outdoors certainly don’t need it at the moment!).  

 I’ve been inundated in messages for recommendations of a dehumidifier and air purifier. 

 I set everything out this mould blog. 

 In there you’ll see my recommended dehumidifier and also my recommended air purifier. Sorry there’s no discount code - I haven’t contacted the companies to ask to be an affiliate or anything like that – I’m just sharing with my community products I personally use and recommend.  

Read the blog and do all the things mentioned in there to keep your house, especially wardrobes, dry. In addition, I also have aircon going most of the day to dry out the air as we can’t open windows due to rain. The air con has made a massive difference. I turn the vents up so that cold air isn’t blowing directly on me and turn off when sleeping.  

If you have mould - please don’t ignore it! Contact me to access my 4-step mould protocol which I put together with a building biologist which revolves around the Young Living mould-killing Thieves products (you need an existing YL account holder to connect you to set up a wholesale account for you which I can do and then I can give you access to ALL our resources including the mould protocol, personalised support, community educational events etc).  

I hope this helps,

I’d love to see you 7pm Thursday 17 Feb at my home or via zoom - you in?

Dear community,

I am looking forward to running my first workshop for 2022 on 17 Thursday Feb on how to kick the chemicals in your home.

You have the choice of attending in person at my home in Waverly or via zoom which I will simultaneously livestream.

My mission steadfastly remains to work at the grass roots level to help as many people on the planet lower their toxic load and nourish their bodies starting with the food and the products that they bring into their home.  

By turning to therapeutic grade essential oils of the highest quality as our first port of call wellness cabinet, we are honouring the wisdom of our ancestors who used potent plant botanicals as their medicine.

By using all natural, super powerful, cost effective personal care products and household cleaning products we are saving the planet and our bodies from being slowly poisoned by the hormone-disruptive, allergic, carcinogenic and neurotoxic ingredients found in the myriad of products that line supermarket and pharmacy shelves. 

My team and I will support you to become chemical free and pharmacy free as natural intended in a positive and empowering way at YOUR pace without the overwhelm. 

By making small changes, you are making a big impact to your health, your childrens’ health and the planet’s health. Honestly what’s more important than that?! 🌱🌏💚

The 2 things that I am super passionate about

2021 was in a word, wild, and if I was the producer of Sesame Street I would say that 2021 was brought to you by the letters “W.T.F”. However the shining light on the year was that in addition to the strong bonds of friendships and super tight knit communities formed, one thing that is crystal clear is that robust health is our number one asset.  

The key to vibrant health is my 2 pronged formula of increasing nourishment (in all areas of your life) and reducing the toxicity (in all areas of life). This simple-in-theory directive will allow the body to heal, thrive and function optimally including a building a much coveted strong immune system which will take on more and more importance in defending and protecting us. In practical terms there are 8 key areas of your life (what I call the 8 foundations of health) that profoundly impact your health (nutrition, hydration, movement, sleep, breathe, mindset, fun/play/connection and the environment in which you spend most of your time) – each of which can be a source of nourishment or toxicity. 

While all 8 foundations of health are vitally important, the 2 pillars that I remain super passionate about, are inspiring and empower people to make healthier choices with:

1. What to eat (and how to source their food and prepare it); and 

2. The personal care products and cleaning products they use in their home environment (as your home is the ONLY environment that you can control). 

These 2 areas what I call the low hanging fruit. You’ve got to eat 2-3 times a day and most people in the western world use a selection of personal care products and cleaning products. Healthy swapping to more nourishing choices is the fastest, simplest and most profound way to increase nourishment and reduce toxicity in your body. It’s not an additional thing we need to do- we are eating anyway, and we are using shampoo, conditioner, make up, moisturiser, hand soap, shower gels, sunscreen, cleaning agents, laundry liquids, dishwashing liquids, toothpaste etc. 

1. WHAT TO EAT

The best place to start when it comes to learning and understanding what to eat, where to purchase it from and how to prepare it is my Food as Medicine digital package. This package package is the culmination of over 2 decades of my learnings, research and practical experience consolidated into a comprehensive yet concise package for you. This ultimate health and wellness package contains:

• over 5 hours of nutritional talks on the fundamentals of robust nutrition, gut health and creating a less toxic home,

• a 60 page “How To” manual that sets you up for life

• 5 online cooking classes (bone broth, slow cooks, organ meats, baked cakes and chocolate).

Co presented with Marieke Rodenstein (Australia’s leading holistic dietician and Kresser Institute functional medicine practitioner) this ultimate package provides you with all the tools, information and resources to optimise your health. 

2. HOW DO I KICK THE CHEMICALS IN MY HOME (WITHOUT THE OVERWHELM)?

Learning how to kick the carcinogenic, endocrine disruptive, allergic and neurotoxic chemicals found in conventional personal care products and cleaning products (and even, dare I say, some of the organic brands) is one of the best gifts you can give to you and your family. The toxic build up from ‘everyday chemicals’ adds additional hardship to our already heavily burdened bodies. Our bodies can detoxify but only up to a degree. We have not evolved to deal with the unprecedented level of toxicity that the modern human is subjected to. Removing the toxicity in the one environment you can control will go a LONG way to reduce your toxic exposure. 

In my conversations with people over the last 2 decades, I have found that the 4 biggest obstacles to people choosing less toxic products are:

(a) the notion that toxic free products are more costly

(b) the notion that toxic free products are not as powerful 

(c) having no idea which brands to purchase (there’s a lot of greenwashing out there!) 

(d) the preference to buy from one place instead of multiple shops, brands and websites.  

In my free Healthy Home/ Healthy Swaps/ Essential Oil workshops that I will be running each month in 2022 (starting in Feb) I will show you how you can create a toxic free home sanctuary in a positive and empowering way without the overwhelm by healthy swapping at your pace one by one to all natural, super powerful and cost effective products that are delivered straight to your door from a one stop online shop. 

These small group gatherings will be run in person (which we all love and have missed!) from my home in Waverley and also simultaneously live streamed via zoom so you can attend from the comfort of your home. 

If you prefer to watch a workshop in your home at whatever time suits you rather than be pigeoned into a scheduled time, fill out the contact card on this page for us to send you a free 50 minute workshop covering the same content.

I look forward to seeing you at one of my Healthy Home workshops in 2022!
