A Healthier Home: The Room-by-Room Guide To Make Any Space a Little Less Toxic

Wellness influencer Holman started her blog, A Little Less Toxic, to document the steps she took to reduce toxins in her life. She does the same in this guide. She defines toxicity, provides a glossary for the chemicals often found in homes, and offers suggestions to replace unhealthy products. The book includes tips for every room in the house, including ways to improve air quality in a living room, to make one’s own kitchen cleaners, and to dry-brush toxins away in the bathroom. Readers don’t have to read the book in order; they can easily navigate to the topic they need. For readers who feel overwhelmed, there’s a quick start guide with tips to instantly freshen up spaces, such as opening windows and removing shoes when in the house. Some suggestions are appealing (Epsom salts baths), and some are a bit out there (taping your mouth closed at night). But the author puts readers at ease with humor and inviting photos of her home.
