Is your home hindering your health with Building Biologist Amanda Klecker?
What do you think of when you think of health?
Most of us think of the food we eat, physical activity, sleep, meditation or stress reduction activities. Maybe some even make up and skin care products and what cleaning products we use.
But how many of us consider our homes when we think of our health?
Not too many.
Yet, we spend a lot of time in our homes.
The health of our homes impacts our health immensely!
Luckily, we can do so much to create our homes to be healthy havens!
