what does your toxic drip look like?

Toxins enter the body so easily....


For example, we breathe them, absorb them across our skin, & ingest them. This results in their ability to accumulate in the body. This is termed bioaccumulation. It may help us to visualize this concept if we liken our body to a glass of water and visualize these toxic exposures as drops. Toxic drip, after toxic drip, bio-accumulates into our body and fills our glass. Eventually, we have collected enough toxic drops (exposures), until our glass overflows. This is the tipping point, when we have reached the toxic threshold. This also is when symptoms of imbalance appear, or worse, we are diagnosed with a disease.

This made me think... Hmmm. I wonder what others' toxic drips looks like. This doesn't mean we have to be 110% perfect and have absolutely no toxic drip. That's extremely difficult this day in age, but to me it's more about being aware and trying our best to lessen it. For me it looked like.... Big Sexy shampoo & conditioner, Bath & Body Works body wash, Gillette shaving cream, Dove bar of soap, Clearasil face wash, Dove deodorant, ProNamel toothpaste, Mac makeup, Urban Decay make up and Maybelline makeup. It also looked like using Clorox wipes, literally a Frebreeze plug-in for every room, Febreeze spray, Windex on all the windows and candles through out our home to just name a few. Three and a half years ago I would have never imagined that I would feel so empowered as the gatekeeper to our home!


Meet Brittany Weidlich

 
I'm a Mississippi momma to our three girls and wife to my Canadian hubby. I am a retired kindergarten teacher turned play enthusiast.  After spending a few years in Canada we decided to return back to my roots in southern Mississippi where we enjoy the warm weather and views of the Gulf Coast.

Teaching is something I've always had a passion for and something I knew I was called to do. I love teaching but then I became a momma. I still remember that gut wrenching feeling of having to return to work following maternity leave after having our first daughter. I would pick her up from daycare just in time to cook dinner, feed her and put her to bed. This was our every day.

While pregnant with our second daughter I discovered I had high grade cells on my cervix which had the potential to turn into cancer if not removed. I had no clue that it mattered what products or chemicals I was putting on my body, more importantly what I was putting on our children's bodies. It was during this moment that a kindergarten parent introduced me to something that would help us in all the areas that I didn't yet know we needed. I know I cannot protect our children from everything, but at least by using these natural products she introduced us to, I am no longer being tricked by false marketing and am doing my best as a mother. I now feel assured that I am using safe, toxin free products on my family and in our home. I am even more excited about the fact that I get to help teach and empower other families about toxin free products.

How can I not feel excited about the chance to teach others by sharing what we are passionate about and what works for our family. This means I get to be a momma first, enjoying all the small and big moments with our three daughters as we empower other families to take a closer look at what's in their cabinets one step at a time.
