Why I Say "Clean...er" Life Rather Than "Clean" Life

If you've been around my little world for a little bit, you may have seen me say "clean...er" life or environment or home, etc. If I were you, I'd be wondering why I didn't just say "clean." Let me take a minute to explain my philosophy behind that!

There is no such thing as a clean environment or a non-toxic life.

We could never completely eliminate all toxins in our environment. Unfortunately, they are everywhere, and many of them are out of our control. Which is why WE need to take control of the ones we DO have control over.

Our bodies were designed to be able to handle some toxins. It eliminates them through our detox pathways.

But when we overburden our bodies with constant toxin exposure all day long, it says, "enough!" And that is when symptoms and disease set in.

So our goal should be to reduce toxins as much as we are able to.

Each cleaner product we choose reduces the burden on our body. Each product, one at a time, is a win! And your body will thank you by feeling better with less symptoms!

So your goal shouldn't be a "clean" life. Rather, your goal should be a "clean...er" life.

Don't set an unrealistic goal for yourself! Take the thought of perfection out of the equation. Set a truly attainable goal so you can actually achieve it and celebrate your win!!

Each cleaner product is a step in your clean...er, healthier life journey. And each deserves celebrating!

Don't let perfection and the idea of a "clean" life stop you from getting started! Each swap you make is a step in the right direction, and each will reduce your toxic load, resulting in better health, which leads to feeling great in your body!
