Natural Cleaning
Description
Why Natural Cleaning is a crucial part of toxin-free living.
Common household cleaning products (not just bleach) are extremely toxic to our health and the environment. They contribute to a number of health issues, including respiratory problems, skin irritation, and nervous and hormonal system damage.
Immediate effects of sensitivity to toxic chemicals include stinging eyes, sneezing, coughing, headaches and migraines, asthma and nausea. Long-term effects take a while to develop but can be more severe, involving impact on the central nervous system, hormone disruption and fertility, and can contribute to the development of cancer.
Join this practical weekend course / workshop and learn to create your own natural and completely harmless cleaning products that will support your and your family’s health in the short and long run. Making your own cleaning products is fun, but also extremely cost-efficient.
The Natural Cleaning course/workshop teaches you:
To identify the most toxic ingredients in commercial cleaning products and how they affect our health.
What natural alternatives we can use for cleaning our home, how they work and when to use them.
How to make healthy and natural (yet highly effective) cleaning products for different purposes.
Health and safety rules when working with some ingredients.
Clean your home using natural, homemade products
