Feel at Home Anywhere: Detox Stress, Products, and Disconnection
Jun 17, 2025What does “home” really mean—and how do our environments shape our physical and emotional health?
In Episode 103 of Practical Nontoxic Living, I’m joined by my niece and colleague, Elizabeth McCormick, to reflect on what we learned from a powerful 40-Day Home Detox masterclass with Heather Lilleston—a clinical psychologist and yoga expert known for helping people reconnect with their mind-body connection through conscious living.
Together, we explore how the invisible elements of our home environment—from toxic stress and harmful household chemicals to emotional disconnection and daily unconscious product choices—can disrupt our well-being and sense of peace. This episode is a reminder that detoxing goes far beyond what’s on your plate or under your sink. It’s also about clearing emotional toxins, rethinking your relationship with your space, and how to feel more at home no matter where you are and with whom you're around.
