Lighten the Load

Theo Grant

Most homes carry a low hum of chemical clutter: the cleaning spray under the sink, the candle on the counter, the plastic container gone soft in the microwave. This is a clear-headed walk through reducing it, room by room, without panic or a total overhaul: which swaps actually matter, which fears are overblown, and how to build habits that stick because they are simple. Calm, grounded, and easy to start tonight.
