You may have noticed that I was MIA last week.

I was in California at the 8th Annual Biohacking Conference, put on by Dave Asprey, to speak about toxins.

This was particularly meaningful for me!  It was at this conference six years ago that I took the first steps on my career path.  I had no idea at the time where it would lead me.

So it was beyond an honor to present to my tribe.  The people I learn from and learn with.  A community that KNOWS the body has the power to heal!

My talk was "Clean Up Your Act:  Don't Let Toxins Steal Your Vitality"

I know I talk a lot about reducing toxins, but this has lit a fire under me to keep the conversation going.  I had clients and colleagues in the audience, and they all let me know that they learned new things in my talk.  So I am going to keep talking! 😊

One of the toxins we discussed on Saturday is triclosan.  Triclosan is an antimicrobial, antibacterial agent that was commonly used in antibacterial soap until six years ago, when it was banned in hand soap.

But...did you know it is still allowed in other products like toothpaste, deodorant, and body wash.  YIKES!

And if that isn't frustrating enough... it was originally used as a pesticide!

The moral of the story is that we all need to take an active role in protecting ourselves and limiting our exposure to toxins.  No one else is doing it for you!

The main point of my talk is that by limiting our exposure we can truly reduce our toxic burden and allow the body to heal, and better yet, prevent illness.

So, no matter how experienced we are...we need to pay attention to what we put on, in, and around our bodies.

Take Action

Look through your products in your bathroom and your laundry room.  See if you can find anything with triclosan in it.  Throw it out!
