Use
products that are harmless
YOU may ask: "How will I know if something is harmful?"
Hundreds of thousands of chemicals are combined - but rarely tested
- and we know virtually nothing about their effects!
There is a lot of information on the Internet, though, and books
have been written on the subject. What we will point out is that
your body absorbs 60% of what you put onto your skin, even more
in the shower or bath, as the pores open up with the warm water,
so find a shampoo with ingredients that are organic, making sure
any non-organic ingredients are allowed by the International Certifying
Organisations.
It is very important to use household products that are not poisonous.
These products are not only absorbed by the skin, but go into
our waterways and poison them, before going out to sea or sinking
into our Beloved Earth.
You can make your own: vinegar, bicarbonate of soda and
lemon juice are a good start.
One hundred years ago the products on supermarket shelves were
not in existence. Pat Thomas, in her book, Cleaning Yourself to
Death, links their emergence to the need for petrochemical companies
to find a profitable outlet for their toxic waste!
Earth becomes sick from the treatment we give her. The Earth,
air and water are conscious and managed by the Elemental Kingdom,
and these Beings are rebelling and reflecting the consciousness
of humanity and lack of reverence for life. So we need to question
whether products we use are harmful to life, or good.
