Now that you have some basic information in hand, here’s a plan for a successful step-by-step transition to a healthier environment:
Think about all the good reasons to change your lifestyle and create a healthier environment for your children, yourself and the planet!
Go at your own pace. Make changes room by room (e.g. start with the bathroom, removing harmful products and replacing them with healthier alternatives). After removing the harmful products from one place, it will be easier for you to continue to make the other rooms of the house healthier. To find out which products are harmful and how to effectively replace them, please refer to the different sections of our website. (Note: In an attempt to dispose of your products, do not pour toxic cleaners and/or other products down the drain or throw them in the garbage. Contact your municipality for safe disposal).
Integrate these changes into your daily life: buy healthy, or try DIY (Do it yourself) projects with health in mind (recipes from the guide), build or renovate in a healthy manner, etc. You can drive change! Use your buying power to create the change you want to see happen, and the markets will respond to your needs.
Adopt certain rules at home: for example, don’t allow smoking indoors or near the air intake of your home, leave outdoor shoes at the entrance, research and buy the least toxic options for all needs such as clothing, furniture, furnishings, etc., and ensure good ventilation.
Spread the message to your family, friends and the people around you, on social networks. Become an actor for change!We are just an email away to help you create healthy spaces!
