Switching to a toxin-free lifestyle can seem like a daunting task, but in the end, it will be worth it for the long-term benefits to your health. In 2023 I embarked on a journey to remove toxins from my lifestyle, and today I am sharing 24 simple ways you can create a toxin-free lifestyle in 2024.
- Choose non-toxic cleaning products for your home. I started using Branch Basics.
- Add a water purifier to your life to reduce contaminants in your tap water. I purchased an AquaTru last year.
- Buy organic when you can/the price is right to avoid pesticides.
- Burn beeswax candles. They naturally purify the air and leave a light honey scent behind. I made my own to give out as Christmas gifts last year.
- Ditch conventional dryer sheets and opt for wool dryer balls.
- Use natural deodorant. Bonus if you make your own.
- Diffuse essential oils instead of using candles.
- Avoid products with synthetic fragrances.
- Wear a large hat outside to help keep the sun off your face.
- Use a non-toxic toothpaste. I switched to Dr. Bronners.
- Add air-purifying plants to your home. Snake plants (what I have), Spider Plants, and Aloe are great options.
- Use a natural, toxic-free sunscreen.
- Make a simmer pot to make your house smell amazing without the toxicity.
- Give non-toxic shampoo and conditioners a try.
- Stop using fragrance hand soaps, especially from Bath and Body Works.
- Open your windows at least 5 minutes a day to air out your house, and add some clean air.
- Add the eucalyptus to your shower for a little extra self-care and love.
- Stop eating dyes. I discovered I was allergic to Red #40.
- Switch to non-toxic cookware.
- Go for nail polishes that are toxic-free, especially free of formaldehyde.
- Fragrance-free and chemical-free lotion is the way to go.
- Get rid of the microwave.
- Use glass containers for leftovers instead of plastic.
- Drop the sugar and incorporate honey instead.
