    Practical Nontoxic Living™ Raindrop | Ultimate Home Detox™ Unpacked What are the safest fabrics for your clothes, bedding, and home furnishings? In this follow-up to Episode 105, “Toxic Textiles,” Sophia prioritizes the certifications and most nontoxic fibers and materials to look for when shopping for clothing, linens (like bath towels, bed sheets, and kitchen cloths), and home decor — including rugs, carpets, curtains, and upholstered furniture. Episode 105 shares an enriching detox deep dive. But if you want high-impact takeaways from the detox deep dive within 6 minutes, episode 106 is for you! This short Raindrop episode shares three helpful tips to identify safer, low-tox fabrics to reduce your toxic exposure from what sits on your skin (like clothes and bedding) and to cultivate a healthier, more healing home environment. Learn which natural fibers to prioritize, and how labels like GOTS-certified organic cotton, hemp, linen, and OEKO-TEX MADE IN GREEN fit into smarter shopping decisions. Whether you’re updating your wardrobe, redecorating your living space, or simply replacing your towels, this episode will empower you to choose fabrics that reduce exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, VOCs, and other hidden toxins. 🎧 Part of the Ultimate Home Detox™ Unpacked series, designed to help you detox your home one Raindrop at a time.
