New Year Home Cleanse Step 2: REMOVE

If you do no other step, do this one. Crucial to the entire process is the complete removal of toxic cleaning products and pesticides.

If you decide instead to store them away somewhere “just in case”, or "see if it really affects me", you are allowing dangerous chemicals and toxic pesticides to linger in your home and continue to be a detriment to the health of all those you live with.

The presence of these products, even in small amounts, prevents the creation of a truly healthy home, hindering the ability for the body to maintain health and/or heal.

After reading all the labels, remove ALL pesticides and cleaning products that have toxic red flags from the home and garage (if it’s attached).

Note: If you have products you are not ready to part with, ideally keep them in an outdoor storage closet or detached garage. Or, if necessary, keep them in a sealed, airtight container in the garage.

TAKE THIS STEP SERIOUSLY.

You may need to make a few sweeps of your home. Although removing purchased items can be difficult, keep in mind your immune system will continue to be under siege if these products are not taken out of your house, because the chemicals escape through even sealed lids.

YOU ARE ALREADY ON YOUR WAY TO BETTER AIR QUALITY!

Just the simple act of removal improves the air quality and takes a tremendous load off the body’s detoxification system, increasing its capacity for handling unexpected exposures to chemicals, natural pollens, dust and mold.

It also strengthens the body’s resistance to viruses and bacterial infection, and frees the body to use its energy to rejuvenate and heal if there is illness.

KEEP IT SIMPLE.

Make this a game! This is an opportunity, not a stressor! Know that every single item you remove will result in an improvement in your home environment, and thus your family’s health.

You did it!

Now what? Read the next step now.
