ABOUT OUR CEO*
Hey there! I’m Kathy, founder of The Healthy Household.
I started The Healthy Household in 2017 because I felt a need to provide a practical and easy solution for genuinely curious folk with great intentions of living happier, healthier lives, to shop for health goods. My store would be a culmination of my then decade-long practice of coaching in the high-end, complex health, fitness and wellness realm where from my coaching I saw a big need for an easy, one-stop-shop solution for those learning to be healthier, to purchase products that were transparent in their marketing and delivered on their promised labelling of "health" - not green-washing and not fake-health.
When I used take my coaching clients grocery shopping, I noticed that even the most fastidiously health-conscious person struggled to decipher their way through all the products, even in the health-food dedicated section! In order to understand how complex packaging is and what it really means not just from what is included on the label, but also from what is left out, would take a degree in nutrition, marketing and even psychology!
In essence, with the products you see in The Healthy Household, I have done all the work for you, so all you need to do is enjoy your shopping experience.
The other thing I wished for was to provide a personalised experience for you, even while shopping online with us. Being an avid online shopper myself I much prefer stores where I know I can reach out at any time and feel at ease that there is someone on the other side ready to support me. I have kept the store "boutique" for this very reason, so we don't lose sight of what's most important: You.
We are real humans here, we got you and we appreciate each and every one of you, so treat us like you are shopping face to face with us...
I invite you to get in touch any time.
Thanks again for being here. Feel free to drop me a line with questions, comments, suggestions or just to say hello!
Warmest Regards,
Kathy ~ CEO*
*Chief Enthusiasm Officer :-)

Balancing these elements encompasses what we call Health, and working out what to do in your own world can be overwhelming given various and often conflicting sources, as well as finding a balance of what's too much and what's not enough. And of course what's actually right. Sometimes it's a journey. There is no right or wrong, everyone is so unique. Things change course, but starting somewhere as you sense the need and creating greater self-awareness as you go, is often the catalyst to gaining traction and growing wisdom.
Engaging in health-focused activity can be looked at as self-care. When you identify a need for some self-care or self-growth, be kind to yourself, and allow a place in your mind that sometimes self-care is not a linear experience where X + Y = Z, i.e. sometimes we don’t know what we can’t control until we try to control it. There is a wisdom with looking after our health that can be learned from developing self-awareness where you learn to listen to your body, without the mind-noise to help you work out which path to elaborate on as you go. Sometimes you set a plan for something from A to Z, but as you progress through your journey things can change - often quite a lot, because we are not linear - our bodies and psyche are complex.
So our message here is: You Are NOT JUST What You Eat, you actually Are What You Are - learning yourself, learning your acceptance, having kindness for where you are right now, and where you would like to go and enabling the journey to change as you go, is a great help to making great choices and not setting yourself up to be stuck at various stages because your mind is telling you one thing and your body another. Being Human is a progressive art. Be kind, be you, as you are, and enjoy your journey. Self-care isn’t selfish, it is selfless. A better you is a better world around you, including everyone else in it. You have all the power.
If we can help you with anything in relation to Self-Care, with tangible progress “things”, our health store is expanding to accommodate more and more of the broader aspects and meanings of health, we warmly welcome you to get in touch any time for a chat.

]]>Often when we are so focused on improving our own health, we can become complacent about (or not even realise the importance of) our pets' health, believing that they have stomachs of steel; and we may only focus on their health when something obvious is wrong and we have to then be reactive.
When it comes to our furry family members like cats and dogs, their biochemistry is not too dissimilar to our in terms of need with how their bodies utilise nutrients and how their health may become suboptimal in the same way that we as humans become affected by imbalances in our environment with low-quality foods, water, nutrients, and exposure to many toxins.
With a proactive focus and nurturing our pets with high-quality health and wellness foods, supplements and other products such as bathing, grooming, cleaning products, keeping it as close to the earth as possible with a low toxin-load can keep the health of your pets as optimal as you have control over and improve their overall well-being and happiness too, just like with ourselves!

]]>We might be an emerging online health hub, but we have 10+ years in the business of understanding what health-conscious folk need to lead healthier happier lives. We have a collective background in holistic nutrition, supplementation, functional medicine, fitness coaching and biosignature modulation.⠀
⠀
We are passionate about supporting your health (inside and out - it all contributes!) in an ethical, toxin-free and bio-available way which means we support ACTUAL nutrition from REAL food, sourced in a REAL way and support our local suppliers who are just as passionate as we are. ⠀
⠀
Quality health goods used outside or inside the body become information that your body contributes toward building new cells and genes, aiding organ function, brain health and aiding the removal of toxins. This is why it's so important to continually evolve the health of your environment as well as your food as it all ends up being absorbed by your body, and affects hormone function, including stress levels, mental clarity and body composition.⠀
⠀
We promote holistic living and thrive on supporting you to build your own health empire at home from a functional, foundational perspective. ⠀
⠀
We got sick of watching our well-intentioned clients grocery shop with good intentions of being healthy, yet were so confused and overwhelmed with working out what was actually healthy amongst the green-washing marketing and what is NOT listed on products that often make the most impact! We were sick of people being lied to so decided to take matters into our own hands.⠀
⠀
Hence the birth of The Healthy Household!⠀
⠀
Again we are emerging, so we have a lot more love to give and a lot more products to keep adding to our store. We are adding new products to our store every week so please follow us to keep in the loop as our range expands, just for you!⠀

Our founder Kathy is currently completing a Complementary Medicine degree so she can improve on over a decade of professional experience in the health and fitness industry, to grasp an even deeper understanding of cellular and chemical health so we can continue to bring you a lifetime of amazing genuine health goods. She also has experience in Fitness, Functional Medicine, Nutrition and is a Precision Nutrition Coach and Poliquin Biosignature Practitioner.
We have been sharing incredible products with our healthy lifestyle and fat loss clients for a long time now, but we chose to combine all our goods and sales portals into the one place so more people could enjoy the experience - better for you as you have more variety and a better shopping experience, and better for us as one larger store makes it more efficient for us to source more products and improve the experience you get from us.
The Healthy Household product range has been developed with thanks to the feedback and input of passionate health professionals we know: health and fitness coaches, nutritionists, naturopaths, exercise physiologists, physiotherapists and chiropractors. Also, thanks to our many clients, family and friends over time who have tried and tested products for us and have even made suggestions that we have loved and shared.
We have built solid relationships with all of our suppliers; a strong prerequisite of building these relationships is to share the same values and care-factor regarding long-term health benefits of our customers.
Please enjoy your shopping experience and bear with us while we evolve our product range over time. If you have any questions or even suggestions, please do not hesitate to get in touch!
With Love, The Healthy Household.
