On this weeks episode if myself and my guest sound relaxed it’s because it was recorded in our guests bedroom! It’s a lovely room, and free of clutter. Why? Because she is Interior Therapist Elizabeth Danon of EDIT. She’s developed her own method over the past decade to help people make the most of their homes and spaces and get rid of items of unwanted clutter. She believes that the objects you surround yourself with and the environment you live in has a huge affect on your well-being, happiness, mental and physical health. And she cured me of my hoarding habit! We talk about more mindful ways to think about the products you bring into your home and the space you live in.Find out more herehttp://elizabethdanon.co.uk/Here is some info on the Consumed TV show Liz mentionshttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt2017130/The Minimalism film https://minimalismfilm.com/And find out more about Marie Kondo author of The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Uphttps://konmari.com/And if you have some big items to get rid of check your local charities such as the British Heart Foundationwww.bhf.org.uk/Furniture/Collection‎As always let me know your thoughts on today's episode!https://www.instagram.com/ageofplasticpodcast/ https://twitter.com/andrea_fox https://www.iamandreafox.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/ageofplasticpodcast Tell me you enjoy the Podcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/ageofplastic

So this episode I’m delving into a topic I thought would be easy. Recycling.The thing we are all reminded to do by our councils, often in our own kitchens with separate bins and bin bags. Exciting chat this. I get on my high horse about recycling symbols, chuck in some facts and hopefully helpful tips and promise to set up a Change.org petition. I'm regretting it already.Recycling Rules where you arehttps://www.recyclenow.com/recycling-knowledge/packaging-symbols-explained?gclid=CjwKCAjwkYDbBRB6EiwAR0T_-igv035FIAGaZeObx_6ZOPI_e1igCJ7h8t9XWsiyghlZ4Ik56pcpPxoCGO4QAvD_BwE Lucy Siegle’s book ‘Turning the Tide on Plastic’https://www.orionbooks.co.uk/books/detail.page?isbn=9781409182986Keep Britain Tidy - Our Broken Recycling Systemhttp://www.keepbritaintidy.org/break-bad-habits-and-end-our-barmy-recycling-systemKeep Britain Tidy - Tips on Recyclinghttp://www.keepbritaintidy.org/waste-less-live-more-easy-ways-improve-your-household-recyclingRiverford founder Guy Singh-Watson on recyclinghttps://twitter.com/Riverford/status/1044300441436246022That 2015 Time Out London article I decided to swear by, until recently.https://www.timeout.com/london/things-to-do/what-really-happens-to-londons-recyclingA Plastic Ocean Filmhttp://plasticoceans.uk/Get in touch with your thoughts and guest suggestions;www.instagram.com/ageofplasticpodcast/www.iamandreafox.co.uk/age-of-plastic-podcasthttps://www.instagram.com/ageofplasticpodcast/ https://twitter.com/andrea_fox https://www.iamandreafox.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/ageofplasticpodcast Tell me you enjoy the Podcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/ageofplastic
