Your health is dependent on a lot more than your diet and how much you exercise. We know that stress is the biggest contributor to imbalances and poor health. Stress can be internal (mineral imbalances, toxic metals, negative thoughts or emotions) and external (work environment, family, finances, and many more.) Some of the biggest external stressors are located in your home environment. This is a very large subject which we will discuss over time. Do you have wifi in your home, do you carry a smartphone close to your heart or reproductive organs all day long? Do you have carpet and/or furniture that is made of materials that outgass? What is in your mattress? This can be quite overwhelming when you look at all the pieces in your environment that are actually not supporting your good health.
If you are looking for ways to clean the air in your home after having been exposed to smoke and ash, we recommend the Healthmate and Healthmate+ air purifiers. We had our unit running in our home while we were evacuated during the Thomas fire and upon our return the house smelled clean, no smoke smell on the sheets, curtains or clothes that stayed behind.
The Austin Air HealthMate Filter is the best overall protection filter from the Austin Air Filter family.
The HealthMate HM400 Filter is constructed using a true medical High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA) filter surrounded by a carbon/zeolite mixture capable of removing the tiniest of particles and absorbing odors and gases. The HM400 Filter uses the HEPA to remove up to 99.97 percent of all particles down to 0.3 microns in size and 95 percent down to .1 micron.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Indoor air quality is in the top 3 of the most important elements to consider when looking at your home. Beyond obvious issues like mold and allergens, there are VOCs and other chemical compounds that are constantly being emitted by your furniture, mattress and even your pillow depending on what it is made of.
While we recommend switching to organic non toxic bedding, one simple way to start turning things around is to have one or more real high quality air purifier(s) in your living room and in your bedroom. All air purifiers are not alike and there is so much choice on the market that just doing the research itself can be a stressor. Thankfully we have done the research for you and after many hours of research and talking to different manufacturers we have selected Austin Air as the top air purifier manufacturer by far. All their air purifiers are made in the USA of non toxic materials and finished with non VOC paint. At the time we were approaching this company they were completely out of stock because all their units where beeing sent to a little town in California that was experiencing serious air quality issues due to a gas leak. Their units where also used to clean up air quality in buildings near ground zero in New York after the Twin Tower attacks. The strength lies in their filter quality which is guaranteed 5 years! This type of quality and durability is unseen in this market. Compared to it’s competitors who’s filters need to be replaced every 6 months, Austin Air purifiers will not only increase your quality of life but will also save you a lot of money in the long run. Whole System Healing is an official Austin Air dealer. We offer FREE SHIPPING to all air purifier orders within the United States. Austin Air is increasing it’s prices starting Feb 1st 2018.
We are slowly replacing our furniture with non toxic pieces however, we do have all organic non toxic bedding and bed frame. We have been using the bedroom machine for over 2 years and it has only been off a few hours since purchasing it. We leave it on low and if we move it into a different room we give that room a little blast for a few minutes then continue on low. See what unit feels right for you. You may want to opt for several smaller units to keep one in each bedroom or you may want to buy one unit and move it into your bedroom when you go sleep. Let us know if you have any questions or need help choosing.
