Hi friends! I hope your week has been going well. The sun is shining here and with the weekend nearly upon us, I’m feeling cheerful and ready to tackle a few home projects.
The bright light also reminds me it’s time for some serious spring—or pre-summer—cleaning. It’s funny how sunlight can make a room feel magical while also highlighting every speck of dust. That glow shows the good and the not-so-good, and it’s a great nudge to clean up.
Today my daughters and I are hosting our Happy Healthy Summer stories and a diffuser giveaway on the Dwell Well Collective Instagram account!
Follow the Dwell Well Collective Instagram and watch the stories for tips and demonstrations.
If this is your first time here, Dwell Well Collective is our toxin-free home, essential oils and wellness lifestyle account. We share practical tips, short DIY videos, recipes and daily inspiration for caring for your home and body naturally. I also post on The Inspired Room’s Instagram when I have new content there.
If you’re planning to tackle dust this weekend, here’s an important reason to get started:
A study from George Washington University found that many toxic chemicals commonly end up in house dust.
If that doesn’t motivate you to dust, consider that what collects in our dust can also find its way into our bodies. That’s a good reason to be thoughtful about the products and materials we bring into our homes and to choose safer alternatives when possible.
THE BEST WAY TO CLEAN YOUR HOUSE TODAY:
1. Remove toxic or unnecessary products from your cleaning routine—avoid ingredients you wouldn’t want in your body.
2. Be mindful about what you bring into your home—fewer hazardous materials means cleaner dust and a healthier space.
3. Watch our Dwell Well Collective Instagram stories for Happy Healthy Summer tips, DIYs and recipes—and enter today’s diffuser giveaway.
