Clean Regularly. Many allergens are in your home so be sure to clean your carpets, rugs, floors and curtains regularly. A HEPA vacuum cleaner can help as it has a special filter to trap very fine dust and allergen particles.
Reduce Clutter. There could be places in your home where dust, pet dander and other things are collecting. Reducing the unnecessary items can lessen the amount of hard-to-reach places dust can collect. 
Wash your sheets and liners. Wash your linens weekly with hot water to keep down pet dander and dust mites. 
Use air and window filters. This extra layer of protection can screen out dust and pollen. 
Reduce mold. Clean your shower curtains, trash cans, and damp areas with a mix of water and chlorine bleach.

What is anger?

Anger is a normal, healthy emotion that usually arises in response to a perceived threat, insult, or injustice. Recognizing the gap between expectations and experiences (current situation) can help manage anger. This gap often triggers frustration when reality doesn’t meet our hopes and desires. It is crucial to recognize that the root cause of anger is internal rather than external. Often anger stems from unprocessed emotions from childhood leading to adult emotions that are disproportionate or inappropriate to the situation.

Healthy vs. Unhealthy Anger: 

Healthy Anger: Motivates action against injustices such as poverty, and inequality. 

Unhealthy Anger: Manifests through destructive outbursts or suppression, causing personal stress, anxiety, and even physical health problems including high blood pressure.

 On Global Holistic Wealth Day on April 9th, it's also crucial to shine a light on the often-hidden threats to our collective holistic wealth. In 2024, despite the growing awareness and emphasis on holistic wealth, several hidden threats continue to pose challenges to our overall well-being. Here are some of the hidden threats to holistic wealth in 2024:

 Digital Overload: The pervasive influence of technology and digital devices can lead to information overload, constant distraction, and a disconnect from real-world experiences. Excessive screen time can negatively impact mental health, hinder authentic human connections, and erode our ability to be present in the moment.

 Work-Life Imbalance: The blurring of boundaries between work and personal life, exacerbated by remote work arrangements and always-on connectivity, can lead to burnout and diminished overall well-being. Striking a healthy balance between professional responsibilities and personal pursuits is essential for holistic wealth.

 Financial Stress: Despite efforts to redefine prosperity beyond financial metrics, economic insecurity and financial stress remain significant concerns for many individuals. Rising living costs, debt burdens, and economic uncertainty can take a toll on mental and emotional health, affecting our overall sense of well-being.

 Environmental Degradation: The ongoing environmental crisis, including climate change, pollution, and habitat destruction, threatens not only the health of our planet but also our holistic wealth. Environmental degradation can undermine our physical well-being, disrupt communities, and erode the natural resources essential for sustainable living.
