We ask you to ask the simple queston -
How safe is your home and the personal care products you use everyday?
 
Did you know that researchers have found more than 300 chemicals in the umbilical cord blood of newborn babies, rendering them pre-polluted even before birth? The reality is, thousands of untested chemicals are in our everyday products, our homes and inside of us. At the same time, the prevalence of many diseases continues to rise.

As one of Australia’s leading providers of chemical free household products, and one of Australia’s leading and innovative certified organic product manufacturers, Naturally home and Divine By Therese Kerr have come together to exclusively screen The Human Experiment, a powerful documentary that tells the personal stories of people who believe their lives have been affected by toxic chemicals.
We believe it’s time to stop the rise in cancer rates, allergies, ADHD, hormone imbalance and infertility. Come for an evening of enlightenment and be awakened to new possibilities and BECOME PART OF A CONSCIOUS COMMUNITY. Individuals have the collective power to make profound changes to our world. Partnering with the Mindd Foundation, join us at for a night of education and fun at Wesley Conference Centre, 220 Pitt St, Sydney CBD for a compelling screening of this awakening film from Oscar winner Sean Penn and Emmy® winning journalists Dana Nachman and Don Hardy. You will be left empowered and knowledgeable.

You’ll also be inspired by some of Australia’s most passionate wellness experts as they share first hand how to switch to safer options. In addition to Danielle Shirley ( Pharmacist, Herbalist and owner of Naturally home who has secured the rights to the Australian screenings of The Human Experiment) and Therese Kerr ( Passionate wellness advocate and owner of Divine by Therese Kerr) we will have the highly knowledgable chemical expert, Prof Marc Cohen form RMIT university to speak in Brisbane.

Tabitha McIntosh

Tabitha is an experienced naturopath & clinical nutritionist with a Medical Science background, who's passion for her work is tangible. Tabitha also enjoys the challenges of being a mother, and it was starting her own family that prompted her interest and research into environmental health particularly around mothers, unborn babies, and infants.  She has a particular interest around the hidden dangers of environmental chemicals and their impact on human development & health, and feels the long-term effects of exposures to these toxicants are yet to be fully realised. Tabitha is also currently co-authoring a book on the environmental chemicals and human health, to be released early 2014. This book represents her efforts to contribute on a larger scale, hoping that this book and it’s message reaches a much wider audience than she could possibly see in her own clinic. Tabitha also takes delight in lecturing and supervising at Endeavour College and Nature Care College, as well as presenting at conferences and seminars throughout Australia. Most of the time she can be found in private practice, in Sydney's Woollahra, where she is founder of Awaken Your Health Clinic. See http://www.awakenyourhealth.com.au
