Safe Swaps to DETOX YOUR BATHROOM
Webinar REPLAY Link
…‘hazardous to humans and domestic animals.’ •There are over 3,000 fragrance chemicals used in the creation of “fragrance” or a signature perfume to endure a lengthy shelf life. If someone leaves a room and you can still smell his or her fragrance, it probably has phthalates in it. •“Fragrance” is considered proprietary in nature and brands do not have to disclose which materials they’ve added. •Manufacturers are responsible for the safety of the ingredients they use in their products. However, they do not have to comply with any federal regulations when it comes to “fragrance.” Some of these ingredients have been linked to cancer, hormone disruption, neurotoxicity, asthma, allergies, and other health concerns. Many haven’t even been tested!!!
•Toxic Body Burden is EWG’s (Environmental Working Group) chief concern… “Our concern is daily, weekly, chronic exposure over a lifetime. Maybe if you’re exposed to a chemical a handful of times it wouldn’t cause harm, but some chemicals build up enough or cause enough harm in your body over time that it triggers some kind of disease outcome. The concept [of body burden] is that pollution is not just in our air and in our water — it’s also in us.”

What is SURROUNDING your body? • Are you sleeping on a natural mattress? Organic sheets washed with a natural soap? • Are you keeping your EMFs at a minimum, especially when you’re sleeping? Cell Phone 8 ft from bed. • Are you wearing all cotton/natural fiber clothing? • Are you minimizing stress, toxic relationships, emotional strongholds? Strong faith?

Open Wide ANYTHING that goes into your mouth is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Market Toothpastes and Mouthwashes contain: • Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) toxic to human cells • Triclosan has been shown to be harmful to human health and to the environment • Fluoride toothpaste should not be swallowed and therefore not used by toddlers or anyone cannot sufficiently spit all of the toothpaste out. • Artificial Dyes and Preservatives • Cytotoxins, Neurotoxins, Carcinogens
Plant-based Dental Care After every meal, keep your pearly whites clean and shining bright with Thieves Whitening toothpaste. For best results, follow with a swish of Thieves Fresh Essence Plus Mouthwash for 30-60 seconds! Every night, floss with Thieves floss to get all those popcorn kernels out of your gums! Every morning, put a drop of Thieves in your Waterpik for a “just left the dentist” feeling everyday.
PRO TIP: If your toothbrush is more than 3 months old, it’s not doing as much good as it could. Put an alert on your phone for a reminder to change it every 3 months!

Squeeze Out All That You Can Thieves Whitening Toothpaste will not scratch your enamel like other whitening toothpastes. Once you just can’t squeeze anymore toothpaste, cut the tube with scissors. Add a paperclip to the each opening to keep the toothpaste from drying out. Stick your brush into the tube first (you’ll get at least 5 more brushes.) https://www.youngliving.com/en_US/products /thieves-whitening-toothpaste
Then start on the cap (at least 8-10 more brushes.)
Swish The Love Fill 1/3 of a small (10oz) bottle with Thieves Mouthwash. Add 3 drops each Thieves Vitality, Orange Vitality (brightening), and Peppermint Vitality. Fill the rest with purified water. Shake. Use within a month. Need to make a big batch to spread around the whole family? Pour the whole Thieves Mouthwash into an empty Ningxia Red bottle (24oz), add 5 drops each of the essential oils, and fill the rest of the bottle with purified water. Fill up small bottles for each family member to have their own personalized mouthwash.
No need to rinse after using.
When You’ve Gotta Go Can you spot the 6 toxic areas in this picture?
1. Toilet Paper 2. Bottom Wipes 3. Cleaning Wipes
4. Air Freshener Not shown: 5. Toilet Cleaner 6. Floor Cleaner
Who Gives A Crap? Americans Use close to 8 million tons of toilet paper/year. The Issue With Tissue • Chlorine (Dioxins) cause reproductive and developmental problems, damaging the immune system, endocrine disruptors, and carcinogenic. Formaldehyde are just some of the toxic chemicals used to process toilet paper and is touching our most porous areas of our bodies. • Bisphenols like BPA were found in recycled toilet paper and are endocrine disruptors, linked to reproductive problems, early puberty, low sperm count, and breast cancer. • Artificial fragrance. Demand toilet paper made from bamboo or sugar cane…it’s good for the environment and your bum. (Amazon)
https://www.mamavation.com/brands/toilet-paper.html
Add ONE drop of your favorite essential oil to the INSIDE of the toilet roll for natural fresh scent every time you pull.
Not Just For Babies Bottoms Baby wipes are perfect for everyone’s sensitive and porous bottoms. Polysorbate 20, Parabens, Fragrance, Phenoxyethanal (safter preservative), petroleum-based ingredients, Sodium Benzoate Young Living Seedlings Baby Wipes rates a 2 on EWG. All of the chemicals used are a 1 rating. (The essential oils Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, and Geranium are at a 5/4 due to possible allergies.) Lavender is a 1. I always take a small bag of wipes when I travel cause I eat soooo much more than normal!
