Hidden Dangers?!

Are you aware of the hidden dangers of candle smoke and hormone disruption!?!?

I saw a friend talk about the danger of candles, and I googled what was in mine OH SNAP...

So last month I switched to a WAYY BETTER quality candle and here's why...

Beyond compromising air quality, burning candles, especially those made from certain materials, can also introduce hormone-disrupting compounds into our environment.

The smoke you can't see can also contain a cocktail of potentially harmful chemicals. Paraffin-based candles, which are commonly used, release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene when burned. These chemicals don't just affect our breathing; they can also interfere with the balance of hormones in our bodies!!!!

Let's deep dive into what this means...

Hormone Disruptors are substances that can interfere with the normal functioning of our endocrine system, which controls the release of hormones that regulate various bodily processes.

Exposure to hormone disruptors has been linked to a range of health issues, including reproductive problems, developmental disorders, and even an increased risk of certain cancers.

Many candles, particularly those made with synthetic fragrances and paraffin wax, can contain phthalates and other chemicals that act as hormone disruptors. These compounds are used to stabilize fragrance and enhance burn properties, but they can be released into the air when the candle is burned, where they're easily inhaled or absorbed through the skin.

So before you buy your favorite fall and winter candles. Do your research!!!!

Yet ANOTHER REASON that I freaking LOVE my Holistic Home Wellness Store!!! They have the BEST CANDLES TOO!!

Trying to Do Better

The older I get the more I want others to be treated FAIRLY.

Sure I have DEFINITELY supported companies that deep down I knew that there were workers being taken advantage of and just because I didnt see it, doesnt mean it's not real.

So I sought out working with companies that DO BETTER FOR US ALL.

Now I refer what I think is, THE BEST. That's it.

I have to ask you, did Walmart ever pay you to refer others to shop with them?

Also, do you KNOW where those products are made and if EVERYONE was treated fairly in manufacturing those products?

That’s the difference with where I shop now....and have now been shopping these last 3 years...

This company is the manufacturer, the distributor AND the customer service, (I talked to Yolanda 2 days in a row, & and yes, it's people paid well HERE in the US) ...

Btw, you will NEVER SEE THEM ADVERTISE.

Instead, I get a pretty incredible "Thank you check" for my referrals. From a (DEBT FREE) US company that has a 96% reorder rate where over 20,000+ families shop at EVERY month!

Referral shopping (thats good for ALL) is what most people need MORE OF.

I will do a better job at this going forward because I want us ALL to win & I believe that we should all have a chance at success.

I'm not quite as "crunchy" as I want to be, but I'm getting there.

I Say Yes

When asked to stop work for a day, I now say YES...without guilt. This year I chose my word to be YES, and if I'm not feeling aligned with it, then it's a NO.

The rest of this year is already looking SO DIFFERENT & I'm so grateful for the choices I've recently made. I can't wait to celebrate something BIG, but I almost feel like it's not real yet. 😍😭🙏🏽 whatever you fear, go after it. And ALWAYS fight for what you deserve, bc babe You ARE WORTHY!

Balance

Coming from a background of playing basketball, then onto yeaching Zumba for 14+ yeaes, my ankles were freaking SHOT. So I started adding in more balance and mobility in my classes, not just for them, but also FOR ME and I noticed my balance was SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!.

It's so so important to have a variety of excercises!

Do you do the same in your classes, or also love classes or programs that teach this? What's something that has improved for you since doing more variety?

Self Care!

This self care has helped me so much. I usually do this RIGHT AFTER I shower, which might sound counterintuitive because you scoff off the dead skin, but I like to do it on a clean body then use my oils (with coconut oil as the base). It's a practice I've done for a few years now and it just feels so good.

You dont have to go to the spa, to "go to the spa" create your own healthy happy at home, that way you can do it anytime you need a pick me up💟

Just Start Creating!

You don't need one more training! You just need to start creating BEFORE it's perfect. Need some guidance? Or maybe you just need a Coach to help you??

I'm also an AFFILIATE marketer teaching these skills & brands to partner with so you can diversify too!!! ( These affilaite companies are not mlm companies, so you CAN do this alongside your other side hustle!)
