Detox Your Home

Cancer affects 1 in 2 persons, and nearly everyone has an autoimmune-related disease or allergy. We live in a world where the incidence of illness grows as fast as the GDP. Industrialization has created a world that puts products before human and environmental health. Exercise and eating right is not enough. In this rapidly growing world, our resources are depleting along with our health and the public sees and feels this daily. Health and Wellness speaker, advocate and Good Home Company Founder, Christine Dimmick, takes a deep dive into the toxins found in our very own homes, and how you can limit your exposure and take control of your own health. Detox Your Home addresses all of these issues - from clothing to food to the cleaning products used every day in homes just like yours. Dimmick unveils what manufacturers won't, so you can avoid exposing yourself and your family to the hidden toxins eating away at America's health and wellness. Detox Your Home is the essential go-to book for how to live a life of wellness, and will show you how to improve - in every part of your life.

Christine Dimmick is founder/CEO of The Good Home Company Inc., author of Detox Your Home, host of the podcast Be the Change, and a public advocate for health and wellness and the practice of tending to your home (house, body, mind and planet). It is her belief that when we care and tend to our collective homes - our mind, body, physical residence, community and planet, we feel better and find the peace we seek. Christine has been featured in Real Simple, O Magazine, InStyle, House Beautiful and has spoken at notable places such as the United Nations in New York City and Geneva, The Assemblage, Canyon Ranch and A+E Networks.
