What is Off Gassing & How Does it Affect Your Home Environment?

I’m sure you’ve heard of the term “off gassing” -- but if you’re like I was, you may also not REALLY know what it means (or how it’s affecting our body and space in BIG ways). But I really think that once we understand a type of toxin or in this case, HOW a toxin gets into our home, the easier it becomes to reduce it overall.
I think maybe a little part of me never REALLY wants to know about a toxin - like I’m watching a suspenseful movie with one eye open -- I want to know, but I don’t want to know all the awful side effects. Because I know that my home contains PLENTY of toxins, I know my kids and myself are certainly exposed to our fair share.
But then I have to remind myself that we do our best to limit the toxins we can, and while sometimes it doesn’t FEEL like that’s enough, it most certainly is doing a HUGE favor to our health and wellness.
And to be honest, if you don’t know about toxins or about chemicals that you COULD reduce in easy ways, you’ll miss a huge opportunity to create a healthier home.
This week’s post will take you through what off gassing is and how to actually create a climate at home that limits off-gassing from your current products and materials.
