Happy Friday! How was the week? We\u2019re on Day 5 of our <a href=\"https:\/\/fitnessista.com\/dr-cabral-7-day-detox-review-recipes\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow noopener noreferrer\">community detox<\/a> and the feedback so far as been amazing! I\u2019m doing 21 days for the first time, and I already feel SO good. I could see\/feel a lot of inflammation in my face, and it\u2019s already gone. My energy is better, sleep has been better, and it doesn\u2019t feel daunting at all. (Even though I\u2019ll be ready for some chocolate when this is all over.)

I\u2019m continuing to dig into my <a href=\"https:\/\/fitnessista.com\/140-the-eye-story-details\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"follow noopener noreferrer\">whole situation<\/a>, and mold exposure can contribute to gut imbalances and bacterial overgrowth. I know we were exposed to mold when we lived in San Diego &#8211; our little house by the beach was like 100 years old &#8211; but was curious to see if we had mold exposure here. <a href=\"https:\/\/microbalancehealthproducts.com\/products\/ec3-mold-screening-test-kit-6-pack.html\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">I bought these little testing pucks<\/a> and put them in various locations around the house. I won\u2019t post the results (because EW) but we were shocked!!! The worst offenders were our couch and upstairs carpet. We\u2019ve been planning on getting the carpet removed anyway &#8211; this just expedited the process &#8211; but we were on the computer ordering a new couch that very day.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fitnessista.com\/?attachment_id=162853\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-162853 follow noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-162853\" src=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/mold-testing-1-scaled.jpg\" data-fslightbox=\"gallery1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Which brings us to the next fave:<\/p>\n<p>new couch!<\/p>\n<p>Our old brown <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+YUUj-kEdyMY8pyPpLxMIaw\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Axis<\/a> had stood the test of time, but we had it hauled away because it apparently didn\u2019t fare well from the San Diego and Georgia humidity. We considered getting a new <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+YUUj-kEdyMY8pyPpLxMIaw\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Axis<\/a>, because they\u2019re amazing couches, but in the end, we didn\u2019t want to spend another 7k+ on a couch. (I mean, that\u2019s a Disney cruise lol.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+cZMfTgvA5t7e2mxb80-tOA\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">We found this one at Macy\u2019s<\/a> and have been pleasantly surprised by it! It\u2019s the perfect size &#8211; it\u2019s huge! &#8211; and super comfy. Now the goal is to just try and keep it clean&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fitnessista.com\/?attachment_id=162854\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-162854 follow noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-162854\" src=\"http:\/\/bestratefinders.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/couch.jpg\" data-fslightbox=\"gallery1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Fashion + beauty:<\/h3>\n<p>An updated set of glasses.

My other pair is from <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+ttTC4J2ksH8smDT-LyKzOQ\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Warby Parker,<\/a> so I grabbed a new pair.
