Your paint is releasing microplastics you can’t see.

That “fresh paint smell” is not new home energy. It is volatile organic compounds, acrylics and toxic chemicals releasing into the air… and you are breathing them into your lungs every single day.

Standard paint is designed (using chemical compounds) to dry faster, resist stains and stay on surfaces for years. But what makes it convenient is also what makes it deeply questionable inside the home.

Paint produces two thirds of the world’s microplastics. It is not even allowed into a skip when we do a clear out of a house - so why are we putting it all over our walls, ceilings, furniture and every surface we live beside?

And why are we allowing ourselves and our children to breathe it in 24/7?

The fix is simple: natural lime and clay paints with natural earth pigments.

The wall of my office is painted with paint from in Co. Meath. My kids have drawn on these walls and I just wipe it off with natural soap and warm water.

No chemicals.
No headaches.
Just clean, beautiful air to breathe in.

You can use my discount code BIOWEAVER10 with Ecological Building Systems to order online. Highly recommend you also go visit them in Athboy, Meath where you can even see your own paint being mixed - You can even go into room when the paint is being mixed because it is so natural, and they have so many earth pigments there. Frances in there is brilliant!

In our new store @ 383 Clontarf road (D03 T2W6) we also have samples you can try of the Auro range to touch, taste and smell - and some Earth pigments to look at so you can experience what a natural paint smells like. There is no toxic odour, just an earthy one!

This petition from Greens/EFA is calling for “No poisonous chemicals in our cosmetics”, in response to a European Commission proposal that says they could relax rules around CMR substances - chemicals that may be carcinogenic, mutagenic or harmful to reproduction - in cosmetics such as lipstick, perfume and sunscreen.

Many of us use multiple personal care products every single day and some of us put an estimated 700-1000 chemicals on our skin a day!

Moisturisers. Sunscreens. Perfumes. Lip balms. Deodorants. Makeup. Baby products.

Often, we think of personal care as something separate from the health of the home - but what we bring into contact with our bodies also becomes part of our indoor environment, our air, our water systems and, ultimately, our overall biological load.

Right now, Greens/EFA in the European Parliament are asking people to sign a petition calling for no poisonous chemicals in our cosmetics.

Their concern is that current protections could be weakened, potentially allowing certain CMR chemicals - substances linked with cancer, genetic damage or reproductive harm - back into everyday cosmetic products under specific conditions.

And this matters.
Because perfume is inhaled.
Lip products are ingested.
Sprays linger in the air.
Children put things in their mouths.

And many of us use multiple personal care products every single day.

At The BioWeaver Method, we often speak about the small, practical changes that reduce unnecessary toxic load in the home. This is one of those moments where a small action could contribute to a much bigger shift.

If you feel called to support safer personal care products in Europe, please sign the petition.

Let’s do our part to keep harmful chemicals out of our homes, our bodies and our everyday rituals.

When I was 26 I was living in London, working in a successful banking career, and from the outside everything looked perfect.

But inside my body, things were unravelling.

I couldn’t properly breathe in my own rental apartment. My skin was covered in severe eczema. My throat would intermittently start closing from anaphylactic reactions. I was exhausted, inflamed, frightened, and getting sicker.

And like so many people, I was told the same things again and again:
Eat cleaner.
Take supplements.
Exercise more.
Manage your stress, Laura.

So I did.
I ate incredibly cleanly.
I worked with a personal trainer.
I went to every therapist you could imagine.
I tried to do everything “right.”

But none of it worked.

Because my body was never the problem.

My environment was.

I was reacting to the air I was breathing, the building I was living in, and the space I was spending 95% of my time in.

That realisation changed everything.

It led me to Building Biology - and that is what helped me reverse my autoimmune disease, mast cell activation, histamine issues and severe eczema.

Yes, food matters.
Yes, stress matters.
But for me, what truly changed my health was changing what I was breathing in and what I was living within.

Healing my environment healed me.

That is why I do this work now.
Because sometimes the thing making you sick isn’t you.
It’s your home.

What are you wearing today? 😍

This is the first in a little series I’m so excited to share - because I truly believe that what we wear every single day matters so much more than most people realise.

Our clothing sits on our skin for hours and hours, so I always come back to this question:
What is it made from?

Today I’m wearing a beautiful second-hand Ralph Lauren 100% cotton jumper that belonged to my mum, layered over an Emma Manley shirt (the fabulous Irish designer ) in wool and silk with a metallic leather collar. My jeans are Levi’s for 14-year-olds (an advantage of being short!), my underwear is natural organic cotton from , and my shoes were bought in a market in Marbella over 20 years ago. They were hand-sewn from natural materials and they are still going strong two decades later, though a little scuffed from wear! I kind of love the wearing.

This is the beauty of well-made, natural clothing.
It lasts.
They contain minimal harmful chemicals and pre-loved clothes are much better than new in terms of chemical load.
It feels better on the body.
And I truly believe the natural materials we surround ourselves with can support our health, our energy and our frequency.

So now I would love to hear from you…
What natural materials are you wearing today?

Comment below or create your own video and share it with us, I would love to see 😍

We always think about what we put into our bodies…
but what about what we put onto them?

Our skin is our largest organ.
What we wear sits on it all day, every day… breathing, absorbing, interacting with the body in ways we rarely stop to consider.

Many modern fabrics are made from synthetic, petroleum-based materials, often treated with dyes, finishes and chemicals that the body has to continually process.

Over time, this can become another quiet layer of stress on the system.

Natural fibres feel different for a reason.
Wool, cashmere, silk, cotton, h**p… they work with the body, not against it. They breathe, regulate, and support a more balanced internal environment.

It’s not about perfection.
But small shifts - choosing better where you can - begin to change the overall load on the body.

In this piece, I am wearing a gorgeous sweater from - beautifully made from pure wool.

A simple reminder: what you wear matters more than you think.

We spend up to 90–95% of our lives indoors…
yet how often do we stop to ask what those spaces are doing to us?

Our homes are meant to be places of rest, safety, and regulation.
But for many of us, they can quietly become sources of stress on the body.

Have you ever stopped to question whether your house could be making you anxious? Or contributing to your allergies?

The nervous system is constantly responding to our environment.
Air quality, hidden mould, synthetic materials, chemicals, EMFs, even something as common as carpeting… all of it adds up.

Over time, this can look like anxiety, poor sleep, low energy, or a nervous system that just can’t fully settle.

We’re so often told to optimise our health through food, supplements, workouts…
but what if the foundation we’re living in every day is working against us?

Healing isn’t always about adding more.
Sometimes it’s about becoming aware of what’s around us… and gently removing what doesn’t serve.

Your environment matters more than you think.
