What if something as simple as salt could help you cultivate mindfulness? In this episode of Practical Nontoxic Living, we explore how salt—something we use every day—can become a powerful tool to help us be more present, mindful, and inspired to avoid plastic products.

Join us as we discuss:
✅ How ordinary moments, like noticing salt at the table, can become mindfulness cues 🧘‍♀️
✅ How choosing clean, non-toxic salt supports both physical and emotional health
✅ Simple ways salt can transform meals or cooking into a mindfulness practice

You’ll also learn:
✅ What a rational level of concern is over the contaminants in salt
✅ Health risks from heavy metals in salt, especially for kids
