Our homes....

Have any of you ever asked yourself this question: Is my home healthy?  

I know this may sound really funny but the truth of it is that many homes are very unhealthy and are causing a lot of problems for the humans that are residing in them.   I often wonder if we never introduced plastics and many of the other terrible chemicals in this country what our world would be like.   Please don't misunderstand me but with all the diseases and childhood illnesses and malnutrition that we are facing in this country it really makes you wonder.   So can we conclude that our environment that we are living in is pretty much poisoining us?    Not quite sure but it is a deep thought in the back of my mind!

So not only are we as humans being bombarded by off gasing from our carpets due to glues etc., but what about the detergents we clean our clothes with,  the bathroom cleaners that we spray our tile with, the chlorine that fills our homes like a cloud when we wash our dishes, the floor cleaners that smell so fantastic yet are filled with so many chemicals, the horrific mirror and glass cleaners that are filled with so much ammonia and so much more!   YIKES!   

So now back to our children, do you honestly ever wonder why SO many kiddos are being diagnosed with this type of cancer or this type of illness?   I do!!!   I firmly believe that our kids are so overtaken with so much pollution and air-borne stimulants that their bodies can't get rid of the irritants so they get stored or converted in their bodies to "free" radicals.   We have to remember that when we get a headache from cleaning the bathroom from whatever cleaner we are using and have to leave cause it is SO bad just think of what are children's bodies are going through.   

If there is one thing that I would LOVE for my readers to think about in regards to their homes is: "How can I make my home healthy and happy for those living in it?"
