    1. The Natural Home: Living the Simple Life by Tricia Foley In Creating My Own Natural Home, Known for her romantic yet simple style, Tricia Foley presents a guide to decorating with natural fibers and materials, neutral colors, and an eye toward the environment. The definitive guide to creating a fresh, uncluttered natural atmosphere in four areas of the home: the bed and bath, the kitchen, the living room, and the outdoors.Full-color photographs. Personal Review: The Natural Home: Living the Simple Life by Tricia Foley Colors/pigments originate from toxic heavy metals such as lead being red; purples or violets may contain both mercury and lead; yellow and orange may contain cadmium. You've heard of cadmium yellow with artists pigments. Additionally, darker, deeper as well as more fluorescent colors contain the more volatile organic compounds --VOC's. Some of us have been poisoned with VOC's. I, for one. Carpets made of synthetic fibers and vibrant colors in the USA may contain lots of toxic nerve poisons which are volatile and off gas into the air in our homes, schools, and businesses.On
    2. the other hand, the Natural Home is made up of white and greens because these colors contains less VOC's and hence, are better for our brain and nervous system. They bring us peace and tranquility. They keep our brains sharp and focused. We are not in a brain fog, as we may be with more toxic colors.BTW, organic solvents, like those in pigments, are also amongst the misnamed inert ingredients in economic poisons that kill or cause harm to pests be they weeds; insects (including ants, roaches and mosquitoes; fungi, bacteria or other pesticides; fragrances, perfumes and colognes; natural gas, gasoline, and plastics, plus numerous other products with which we are being poisoned every day. No wonder white and green bring us peace and tranquility. I salute The Natural Home by Tricia Foley, et al and encourage more people to read this book.
