The air we breathe is incredibly impactful on our over-all well•being. Unfortunately as humans continue to damage the very earth we live on, pollution is only increasing. I won't deep dive into a full science lesson or a depressing post on humans creating problems, however as you know we need oxygen to survive. Shout out to plants providing this for us. As nature declines and many of our modernized advancements rise, so does the collateral damage they come with. Emissions, plastics, forever chemicals, waste products and more. Now, clean air is not something we can just assume, and often times is rare... so we have to take proactive steps to create cleaner air for our health and well•being. Having air purifiers in your home is one method. Aside from the external pollutants as mentioned above, our homes can be a collection of dust, mold and chemicals from the products we own like furniture to cleaning products. Everything we consume - whether that is food, water, absorbed via our skin, or what we breath in ends up in the same place... inside our body. Our body, is extremely intricately designed to have a wonderful and robust detoxification system. However, this system can become burdened with a toxin overload in our modern living. Things like our liver becoming 'congested', inflammation overriding and overwhelming our systems, and hormonal imbalances as both cause and effect perpetuating this exhaustion can result in detoxification impairment. Science lesson aside, the first step is knowing what are you breathing? Air quality apps such as this one have a great data source so you can see what your exposure levels are. On days that there are higher readings, consider not working out outside, and increasing your air purification inside. On days with better air quality, open those windows and refresh your indoor air. This app is great because you do not need their particular air purifier to still access the data. It reads nearby filters to gather the data. iqair.com
