The Healthy Living Space
70 Practical Ways to Detoxify the Body and Home
by: Richard Leviton

“The extent of toxicity in our environment today—body, home, and world—is shocking and distressing, but the situation is not hopeless. There is much an individual person can do to reverse this, both at home and in the world. Individual actions and choices count; they have an impact globally. If you start detoxifying and change your consumer habits, this starts to send little shock waves through the marketplace. You start thinking, feeling, and acting differently; you no longer are conditioned or weighed down by toxicity, and you see your responsibility in the world in a new light, or perhaps for the first time.”—The Healthy Living Space

     How toxic are you? How healthy is your home?  Do you know that houseplants can filter out the toxicity from the air that you breathe? Or that brushing your body can aid the body in detoxifying through the skin?

     Richard Leviton, health journalist and author of Physician and Brain Builders, provides 70 essential tools for achieving optimal health by cleansing the poisons out of your body and home—and not just the chemicals you keep under your sink! The Healthy Living Space is a one-of-a-kind self-care manual containing the first complete detoxification program for the total living space—our homes and the physical body we live in.


While there are many books available on the practical applications of feng shui for improving one’s home, and the numerous ways for improving one’s health, until now there has not been a book that presents a comprehensive vision of both. In The Healthy Living Space Leviton presents a program that draws on the best recommendations, practices, and remedies of alternative medicine. Interviews with seven experts in detoxification—including physicians and other health-care professionals—provide research and clinical experiences that detail the benefits of a healthy living space. As an extra bonus numerous Info Tips are also included—lists of products, services, and organizations that put healthy living right at your fingertips.

     The Healthy Living Space presents a unified vision of bodily and domestic health with broader implications for the workplace, community, even the global environment we live in.
