Reduce hidden stressors in your surroundings. Creating cleaner, calmer spaces helps the body conserve energy and heal more efficiently.
Even when sleep, food, and movement are improving, the body can remain under strain if it’s constantly exposed to irritants, toxins, noise, mould, poor air quality, or synthetic materials. These background stressors are often subtle, but over time they place a significant load on the nervous system and immune system.
When the environment is supportive, the body doesn’t have to work as hard just to maintain balance. Energy can be redirected toward repair, digestion, hormone regulation, and recovery. This phase is about noticing what surrounds you and making small, thoughtful changes that reduce unnecessary strain. Even small improvements can make a meaningful difference when they’re consistent.
