The Bedroom
Sheets and Pillowcases
An easy way to start reading your bedroom to make it a clean
and healthy comfortable retreat is with your sheets and
pillowcases and comforter. You must choose organic cotton or
linen sheets and organic flannel for winter. These are
becoming easy to find at most of the home goods stores.
Avoid petroleum-based polyester sheets or no iron sheets
because the resins in these are toxic and they are not removed
with washing.
Comforters
Choose a natural option for your comforter instead of synthetic
poly-filled comforters which may be less expensive but are
also less comfortable. Look for natural fibers like goose down
or organic wool. If you're allergic to wool, choose organic
cotton. These fibers will last you a lifetime.
Pillows
The best fabrics for pillows are organic cotton, wool, or natural
latex. Not only are they more comfortable, but you will not be
breathing in harmful pesticides or chemicals.
Drapes and curtains
Choose organic cotton or linen for you drapes and curtains to
complete your healthy bedroom.
