“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God?” – 1 Corinthians 6:19
Stepping into a non-toxic lifestyle can feel overwhelming at first, but here’s the good news—it doesn’t have to be! At Kingdom Come Home, we believe that small, intentional changes can have a big impact on your health, your home, and your peace of mind.
The key? Start simple. You don’t have to throw out everything in your home overnight. Instead, focus on a few easy swaps that will make the biggest difference. Here are some of the best places to begin:
1. Swap Out Your Candles for Non-Toxic Fragrances
Nothing makes a home feel more inviting than a warm, beautiful scent. But many conventional candles contain paraffin wax, phthalate-filled fragrances, and chemical-laden wicks that release harmful toxins into the air. Instead, choose cleaner, healthier alternatives like our coconut wax candles or Kingdom Come Home fragrance mists—both made with natural, essential oil-based ingredients that fill your space with peace, not pollutants.
“For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.” – 2 Corinthians 2:15
2. Replace Toxic Cleaning Products with Natural Alternatives
Most store-bought cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that can irritate your skin, lungs, and even disrupt hormones. The good news? You don’t need them to keep your home clean!
Switching to non-toxic, multipurpose cleaners is one of the easiest ways to reduce toxins in your home. You can also make your own with simple ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and essential oils. Not only is it better for your health, but it’s also budget-friendly! If you want a fragrant multipurpose cleanser that is anti-viral, anti-fungal, and antibacterial, we have you covered.
“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” – Psalm 51:10
3. Upgrade Your Laundry Routine
Did you know that traditional laundry detergents, fabric softeners, and dryer sheets are loaded with artificial fragrances and endocrine disruptors? These chemicals cling to your clothes and skin, exposing you to toxins all day long.
Thankfully, a cleaner laundry routine is an easy swap! Switch to a natural detergent (we offer one at Kingdom Come Home!) and replace dryer sheets with wool dryer balls—a simple, reusable alternative that naturally softens clothes.
Here’s another tip: Add ½ cup of white vinegar during the rinse cycle as a natural fabric softener. It helps eliminate residue and keeps your clothes fresh—without any synthetic chemicals.

4. Ditch Plastic for Glass or Stainless Steel
Many of us grew up using plastic food storage containers and water bottles, but research shows that plastic can leach harmful chemicals (like BPA and phthalates) into food and drinks—especially when heated.
An easy fix? Swap plastic for glass or stainless steel. Not only are these materials safer, but they also last longer and reduce waste. Looking for affordable options? Check out your local thrift store—sometimes, you can find great glassware for just a few dollars!
“Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in Him.” – Psalm 34:8
5. Protect Yourself from EMF Radiation
We live in a world surrounded by technology—phones, laptops, Wi-Fi, and more. While we can’t avoid electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) entirely, we can take steps to reduce our exposure.
One of the simplest ways? Use an EMF protection disc, like the ones we offer at Kingdom Come Home. Just place one on the back of your phone case, laptop, or near your workspace for an added layer of protection.

“The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” – Psalm 121:8
Start Small, Stay Faithful
Transitioning to a non-toxic lifestyle isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress. Every small change you make is a step toward a cleaner, healthier home, and an act of stewardship over the blessings God has given you.
So, take it one swap at a time. Before you know it, these little changes will become second nature—and you’ll feel so much better for it.
