In this episode I had the pleasure of chatting with Tara Grieb, the creator of ZilchZeroWasteGoods.com. She gives us tips on how to clean our homes in a healthy way! Environmental wellness is a two-way street: it involves making sure we are spending time in healthy environments (inside and out) as well as doing our part to keep the environment safe for other life forms. I like doodling the 8 dimensions of wellness as little loops that are interconnected. All 8 of my dimensions of wellness energize or de-energize each other. AND, some of my dimensions of wellness overlap with yours! It’s easy to see how we are all connected in wellness. How I treat the environment affects YOU and vice versa.
Environmental Wellness: Understanding how your social, natural, and built environments affect your health and well-being; Being aware of the unstable state of the earth and the effects of your daily habits on the physical environment; Demonstrating commitment to a healthy planet (SOURCE: NIH)
