We are wrapping up our series on wellness kitchens, and I thought I'd end with a fun one.  Today we are going to showcase 10 wellness kitchen design trends.  These are trends that I see sticking around for a very long time as kitchens evolve to meet our current and future standards of nourishment.  

It's crazy how many women I know that are all due right about now (including me!).  With my baby's arrival just weeks away, I certainly have baby gear on my mind!  And of course it is a priority to make sure I am creating a healthy and safe nursery for my new little one.  

I went through the process of creating a non-toxic nursery for my son four years ago, and spent months researching all the natural baby products I needed for a healthy and safe nursery.  It was exhausting!  

Well-being takes more than a visit to the gym and eating healthy food.  Since so much of our time is spent at home we should be surrounding ourselves in a space that promotes happiness and reduces stress.  That is where biophilic design comes in.  Biophilic design is design that reconnects us to nature.  A house designed with biophilic features will create a calm atmosphere for us to unwind at the end of a long day.  

It has been a long time coming, but we are finally making great progress on our healthy basement remodel!  This area has been much needed for our household since Pieter and I both work from home.  We had completely run out of room!  

The finished basement will definitely be a multi-purpose space being our son's play room, our TV room and both of our offices.  The most important factor in creating this new room was to make sure it was going to be a healthy space for all of us.

I really thought I was doing it all - eating organic food, using natural products, buying organic clothes and bedding, working out when I had time. I thought I was covering all the bases for a healthy lifestyle.

I know living a healthy lifestyle and making sure your family is safe and healthy is a priority for you.   And I know that some healthy lifestyle choices you make probably come pretty easy to you.  But other parts of living a healthy lifestyle seem daunting and even unattainable, like living in a home that enhances health and wellness.
