What Is in My Home

A reference, not a prescription. Slow and intentional choices I have made over time, offered here in case any of them are useful to you.

These are my choices. Yours may look completely different and that is worth honoring.

Everything here reflects my personal opinion and experience. Nothing on this page is a medical recommendation. Some links may be affiliate links. If you purchase through them I may earn a small commission at no cost to you.

A slow build. I started with what I use most often and worked outward from there. You do not have to do it all at once.

The products closest to your body have the most direct relationship with your hormonal environment. Not every swap here is affordable or accessible for everyone right now and I understand that. These are the ones I have found over time that feel most aligned with how I think about this area of health.

Some of these are larger investments and I want to be honest about that. I did not acquire all of them at once. I share them because they are a genuine part of how I approach recovery.

Used daily. Supports lymphatic circulation and blood flow.
Red Light Therapy
Used in the evening. Red light has been studied in the context of circadian rhythm and melatonin.

Sleep was where I noticed the most immediate difference when I started paying attention to the environment rather than just the hours.

The same philosophy applies here. What goes on and in my dog matters just as much to me as what goes on and in me.

Food and Nutrition

He eats ancient grain, not grain-free. I rotate between these depending on what is available and what the budget allows. The fresh food options are ones I use when I can, not every day.
