Did you know the US has no proactive governing body regulating toxins in our building materials. This impacts not only the people living in the home, but imagine the to toxic burden on the tradespeople working with toxic materials day in and day out.

As a consumer, look for words like mold or mildew resistant, waterproof, water resistant, non-stick, or flame resistant. These products are likely highly chemically-laden.

Will you want or need some of these treated materials? Maybe. But knowing your risk-tolerance and knowing the potential risks associated with selecting some of the materials when the application may not bring as much impact, is crucial.

💻Six Classes is Green Science Policy Institute’s site and is a good resources to help find less-toxic replacement products.

Look for water-based and low-emission products (avoiding harsh solvents and VOC emitting paints and sealers wherever possible.

Also consider asking the manufacturer or distributor for the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), for any product you’re considering. Some, but not all, manufacturers are publishing these standardized forms that detail the health and environmental impacts of a product.

📕“A Healthy House: a practical guide for architects, builders, & homeowners” by P. Baker-Laporte, E. Elliott, & J. Banta. Prescriptions for a Healthy House is the definitive resource you need to live in a healthy home. This book ties together proper home design practices, construction techniques, the resources and the healthiest products you should consider for your home. It provides the big picture that homeowners crave, and the intricate details that architects, designers, and contractors require.

📙 “Mold Illness. Surviving and Thriving“ by P. Vetter, L. Rossi, & C. Edwards – This was the first book I bought (at my doctor’s recommendation) when we learned we had the CIRS diagnosis and first became hyper aware of the dangers of living in an unhealthy home. This book goes into details about testing for mold illness (following the Shoemaker protocol, which is admittedly not for everyone). What I love about this book is that it marries building science with medical considerations angled toward people who are battling mold illness and their environmental requirements. It even has checklists and guides for what to ask for in a mold remediation. People with mold illness may need a more prescriptive protocol than the industry standard.

Self / Parenting.

📗“Mindset” by C. Dweck. After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, PhD, discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in school, work, sports, the arts, and almost every area of human endeavor can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset - those who believe that abilities are fixed - are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset - those who believe that abilities can be developed. Mindset reveals how great parents, teachers, managers, and athletes can put this idea to use to foster outstanding accomplishment.

Tools and Monitoring

Moisture meter: use this to…find moisture. Duh. Be sure you have it on the right setting for the material you’re testing and know it only shows relative readings for some materials. Also, use your eyes for free—look up and down, look for peeling paint, warping of baseboards or other areas. Know that areas prone to leaks are around plumbing and windows/doors, and roof penetrations, and near weep holes. Look there.

Buy the meter here



Wireless endoscope: use this to look all up in holes and crevices—like, wall cavities and air vents/returns, maybe even your husband’s nose if you’re feeling brave 😂—to take a peak and see what the heck is going on in there???

If your electrical sockets are not fully encased, you can unscrew the faceplate and feed it up into the wall cavity—especially helpful when assessing exterior walls.

Check your cabinets with plumbing. Sometimes its unsealed and you can feed it back there, too.

Buy the scope here



Thermal Imaging Camera: use this to look for temperature changes coming from all places like ducts, walls, roofs, around windows and doors, etc. Remember that if air can move through a construction defect, it can also pull water or vapor through via solar drive and air pressure changes. You want airtight for more important reasons than just energy efficiency.

AirOasis iAdapt - use code “CONSCIOUSHEALTHYHOME” for 10% off of your order

The AirOasis iAdapt technology takes a multi-layers approach to filtration and neutralizing toxins in the air.

1) H13 HEPA Filter, which captures dust, dander, pollen, and smoke.

2) Activated carbon absorbs VOCs, chemicals, and odors and combats mycotoxins.

3) The Silver Ion Filter is a sterilizing filter, equipped with a cutting-edge specialized coating that releases silver ions, which penetrate the cell membrane of mold, bacteria, and viruses, reducing pathogens by up to 99%.

4) The Germicidal UV Light effectively destroys and modifies pathogen DNA, leading to a 99.9% sterilization rate. The UV lamps operate at 265nm without producing any ozone.

5) Bi-Polar Ionization - the positive and negative ions hunt down and eradicate contaminants in every corner of your room. Unlike traditional purifiers, our revolutionary technology goes beyond filtering airborne particles. By clustering contaminants, they become easily trapped in filters or settle on the floor due to increased weight. These potent ions even penetrate microorganisms, disrupting their DNA and ensuring thorough sterilization. Rest assured, our Bi-Polar technology won't generate static electricity or produce ozone, making it a safe and effective choice for purifying your air.

I purchased the 6-pack of Germ Defenders about a year or so, maybe two, ago. I love them for smalls spaces (bathrooms, laundry, etc.) and take them with us when we travel by plane. They’re spec’d for 100sq ft. I also love them for work spaces as well. They don’t produce any ozone, deodorizers, or chemicals!

If you are chemically sensitive, these may not be for you. Know that building biologists do not recommend technology that adds anything to the air since the reaction could create unintended byproducts—PCO, ionizers, UV, etc.

The germ defenders are on sale for buy 1 get 1 free, or you can get the 6-pack at a discounted cost. Stack code CHH for another 10% off.

I got to speak to the CTO of HypoAir, David Millburn—such a cool guy with a passion for bringing innovative IAQ products to market in a way that addresses the issues at hand and so they stay affordable. The technology they develop isn’t just solving problems for homeowners who can make significant updates or changes to their mechanical systems—they also produce options that don’t require any significant system changes and low-cost options as well. I’ll show you a couple of examples, below.

Nanofiber Pureair Windowscreens are very cool for those who find they need more fresh air, but might not be so sure about whether the air outside is actually all that fresh. You want to assess the outdoor humidity before you start opening windows for long periods of time, but these are a great option if you don’t have the ability to mechanically bring in controlled fresh air. These are on sale now and you can use code CHH for 10% off on top of the sale!

If you’re interested in ionizing technology, the Bi-polar is an excellent option. It installs inside your unit with MAGNETS, that means no drilling, that means you might be able to use this if you’re a renter. HypoAir even generously offers virtual access to an electrician for 1:1 support after you buy the unit, to ensure that either you or your licensed tech gets it installed correctly. Just another example of how HypoAir genuinely wants to ensure you’re set up for success.

If you are chemically sensitive, these may not be for you. Know that building biologists do not recommend technology that adds anything to the air since the reaction could create unintended byproducts—PCO, ionizers, etc.

I have four (yes, 4) of the HiTech Air Reactor 101s in my home. They are pricey units, and are photo-catalytic oxidation (PCO) technology, which is not for everyone.

If you are chemically sensitive, these may not be for you. Know that building biologists do not recommend technology that adds anything to the air since the reaction could create unintended byproducts—PCO, ionizers, etc.

I credit our consistency of health and healing to these little heavy-hitting machines. The comparisons are telling, but I have had them for 3 years and the performance is why I’ll keep using them and recommending you do your research to see if they’re right for you.

There are numerous air filter and purification products on the market today. Not all are created equal since most only address air contaminants. HiTech Air Solutions Air Reactors utilize PCO technology to destroy contaminants, in the air, on surfaces, and on personal belongings. Viruses, bacteria, mold, mycotoxins, VOC’s, and formaldehyde are common contaminants in a building, existing both in the air and on every surface. HiTech Air Reactors address both air and surface contaminants.

Making sure you right-size the unit for your home square footage, contamination situation, level of humidity, and ceiling design is important. As with all machines, maintenance is also important. Contact Kim or Christine and join their Facebook group where they help you troubleshoot even the most active situations.

whole home water filtration structured water

Add code ”CHH” for a 10% off discount on anything except replacement filters

Go to Greenfield Water Solutions for all of your large and small water filtration and structured water needs. I have the Oxyguard - Regenerative Structured Water system in our home and I absolutely love the fact that all of our water is clean, toxin-free, and structured for optimal cell health. What I also love is that you can reach out to the company and talk to a knowledgeable individual—maybe from the Greenfield family—and they will provide you with anything you need from certifications, explaining each certification, and even install support and troubleshooting. Bathing in structured water is a luxury I never knew I needed, but now cannot live without.

I used to have a Berkey and used the Greenfield filters inside instead of the Berkey filters after the big Berkey filter debacle.

What sold me on the Oxyguard System? Basically it’s a system that gets the water as clean as possible AND also structures the water. It’s my dream water system.

  • Maximum difficult-to-remove contaminant ability:

    • Suspended Solids ≤ 1 micron

    • Color and Odor

    • Hydrogen sulfide (H2S)

    • Chloramines And Chlorine

    • Trihalomethanes (THMs)

    • Heavy Metals

    • VOCs

    • Persistent Organic Pollutants

    • Perfluorocarboxylic Acids (PFCAs)

    • PFOAs

    • Halogenated Organic Compounds

    • Enhanced with Zero Valent Iron for maximum removal of negatively charged substances like:

    • Fluoride

    • Arsenic

  • PHA Technology – Pre and Post pH adjustment technology resulting in enhanced capacity and effectiveness for Carbon-ZVI media in the big tank.

  • Regeneration – Annual sanitization and contaminant remediation using an environmentally friendly Oxidizer which breaks down contaminants to an elemental level while also prolonging the life of all carbon media from 6 to 10 years.

  • Mineralization – After water is filtered, pH is enhanced using magnesium-oxide, a highly beneficial element for people, plants and animals while also coating pipes to inhibit corrosion.

  • Structuring and Energizing – Enhances hydration for people, plants and animals contributing to vitality and energy as well as improving filtration performance.

  • Permanent and Temporary Hardness – Filtersorb CT, a broad range descaler which keeps life enhancing elements in the water while preventing buildup of sulfate, silica, magnesium and calcium scale – Replace every 3-5 years.

  • Low Maintenance Cost – Using cutting edge German technology the main tank carbon media can be regenerated resulting in a low maintenance cost.

  • System design based on biomimicry principles resulting in no negative side effects as experienced with ROs and salt based softeners.

They also have counter filters (the look like countertop Berkey units), and you can buy their filters and use them in the Berkey if you already have one. If you need structured water on the go, they have something for that. If you need an under the counter unit, they have that. If you need travel water-filtration strategy, they have that too. And if you have any questions, they have you covered.

best sauna infrared technology

Save up to $600 on your sauna purchase by following the link here

You’ve probably seen my garage sauna. I love my morning routine—I program the sauna to automatically start heating so I can jump right in. I enjoy practicing guided meditations during my time in there. It’s part of my daily, morning routine and I wouldn’t change a thing! I used to worry about trying to get a cortisol-inducing workout in before work, when it’s dark outside and I’m on high-alert. I’ve traded that anxiety for a 30-45 min detoxification session in my mPulse, where I sweat more than I would on a 3-mile run AND I get to meditate and set my intentions, with gratitude, for a productive day.

In mPulse saunas, LED panels give you your own visible red light and near infrared light therapy tool, strategically placed for optimal therapy. Sunlighten used NASA research to develop an LED array of single wavelength Red Light and NIR with minimal variability and undetectable heat and light. A single blue LED light lets you know it’s on.

Sunlighten’s highly efficient, patented SoloCarbon® infrared heating technology gives you the best detoxification experience because it is clinically proven to raise core body temperature by three degrees.2 You experience a deep, productive sweat from your cells as the SoloCarbon infrared waves penetrate your skin and heat your core to expel the toxins, rather than just sitting in hot, ambient air that only heats your outer skin.

This creates an enjoyable experience of more productive sweat, rather than an uncomfortable, stifling hot and less-productive sweat.

LifeWave: Your body emits heat, including heat in the infrared spectrum. LifeWave patches are designed to trap this infrared energy when placed on the body, which causes them to reflect it back to stimulate specific points on the skin that can promote a general state of health and healthy activity unique to each LifeWave patch.

I’ve used these patches for the last almost three years. I regularly use the X39 stem cell patch, and a variety of other patches for everyday ailments. These are best applied to acupunture points to achieve certain goals. For example, I love the Silent Night patch and SP6 patch on TW17 (behind the jaw, under the ears) and the Aeon patch at GV14 (spine, below the neck) for the HPA/Vagus Nerve Protocol. It helps calm my nervous system.

When my kids are stuffy, I put either Energy or Icewave patches on their sinuses to keep the mucus moving.
