Description

Every day people decide one day to explore what it might mean to ditch the nasty stuff and lower their toxic load across day to day life.
I started 12 years ago and it was hard to find all the information and much of what was to be swapped didn’t perform well and felt like a poor cousin to my high performance ‘convenient’ cleaners and personal care products. Over time, environmental consciousness has exploded and so many beautiful businesses are producing low tox everything from mattresses to moisturiser, coffee cups to sunscreen and it’s getting what seems to be easier - until you realise that labelling loopholes allow for a lot of grey area and high tox ingredients, to be inside tubes and pots that say “Natural” and “organic” on the front.
I created GO Low Tox to be a global resource to learn the low tox vocabulary, get across the latest research and feel that you know exactly what to swap to and where to get it and in today’s show, I wanted to invite a few past students to chat about how their journey has been in going low tox - the stress and confusion turned empowerment when like minded people get together and learn and grow together.
I hope you enjoy their stories.
Every day people are going to change the world and these are three short stories to prove it.

Hello! Thanks for being curious about the Low Tox Life podcast. I'm Alexx Stuart, your host, and after writing and researching on health and sustainability for many years at lowtoxlife.com, I am thrilled to bring this podcast to you as an extension of the online community. The concept of living a Low Tox Life is one that rejects perfection, black and white notions of there only being one way to 'do it right'. Instead, we take a relaxed and curious approach to better choices to incorporate into our lives as and if they fit. Low Tox therefore instead of 'no tox' which to most of us who aren't on an off grid hippy commune, just isn't achievable. There's nothing more that makes me sad than having people quit before they begin because you feel like a failure. Let's feel awesome about what we can learn and do from today! On this show, we cover lots of low tox topics around sustainability, health, fashion, farming, lowering our toxic load and mind happiness and with the brilliant minds I'm so grateful to chat with, I just know you'll be inspired as I am from each show. Enjoy, subscribe, pop the kettle on and most importantly: Welcome!
