Tips for a Healthy Home
While we are mindful about nourishing our bodies with wholesome foods, clean water and activity, consider the health of our homes. The presence of mould and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) can cause a myriad of health complaints such as headaches, nausea, respiratory issues, organ and central nervous system damage. Indoor air pollution can be five times higher than outdoor air pollution! The best ways to reduce harmful air quality in our homes are to eliminate mould, prohibit smoking indoors, increase ventilation and ensure home improvement projects use materials with low or no VOCs.

Keep Your Lymphatic System Flowing
Just like our bowels, the lymphatic system is considered a garbage disposal system of the body. It picks up the fluids from between the cells, brings it into nodes for filtering and cleansing. Old fluids need to move and if they don’t then new nourishing fluids can’t get to the cellular level. Improving the environment of your cells is a great place to start. Lymph nodes hold immune cells. When dead cells, microbes, or toxins enter the lymph nodes, these specialized cells go to work. Seek out our Vetheim Method of Lymphatic Drainage / BodyTalk to get these systems operating more efficiently.
