Creating healthy homes across America “one NEST at a time.” liSa & roN BereS
In 2002, Lisa Beres, a former interior designer, started feeling run down and tired all of the time suffering from chronic fatigue, sinus infections, hormone im- balances and lowered immunity after moving into a newly remodeled home. She was well aware of the abundance of toxic materials that exist in homes today from her experience as an interior designer, but was unaware these materials can off gas as dangerous chemicals into the air we breathe (ie: that “new home smell”). Lisa then began a journey in search of answers. After much research and a dozen doctor visits, she came to the conclusion that her house and products within the home were making her sick! It was through her research that Lisa decided to become a BBEC/Building Biologist (Building Biology —a study derived from Germany which encompasses how buildings impact life and the living environ- have become media personalities championing the ment).

“WOW – I don’t know where to start! Thank you doesn’t seem to cover it. With that said, I want you both to know I am filled with gratitude for coming to The Women’s Conference and for making it such a huge success… I truly appreciate you taking the time to share ideas inspired by Green Nest which address the important issues of making this world “greener” one step at a time… and for that, I will be forever grateful.” (2008) Maria Shriver, First Lady of California
“The zero and low VOC paints that we got from Green Nest to paint Max’s nursery were FABULOUS!! We couldn’t smell any fumes and that put my mind at ease that we weren’t bombarding his immature system with harmful chemicals. We’ve been traveling a lot lately, and when Max is with us, we usually arrange for our hotel to provide a crib for our room. Each hotel that we have stayed at provided crib sheets, but none have been organic. Luckily, on every trip, we pack the crib sheet we got from Green Nest and can sleep easier knowing that his skin isn’t absorbing any nasty pesticides that are typically used on cotton.“ Trista Sutter (ABC’s The Bachelorette)
“Author Lisa Beres has spun a lighthearted and whimsical tale out of a serious message: our overdependence upon chemicals in today’s society. Through beautiful illustrations and conscientious writing, the reader is presented with deep lessons through a cautionary journey between the Body and his House, that both adults and children will enjoy! I would recommend this book to anyone concerned about their health, their children’s well being and the future of our planet.” Sally Jessy Raphael, Radio Host (The Sally Jessy Raphael Show)
“Not only do I love Ron and Lisa for having a good enough sense of humor to appear on my show, and even though they turned down my offer for a threesome, they are the reason I started going green. All their products make it easier to take that first step in doing your part to help create a safer environment and a safer home.” Chelsea Handler, Comedian (The Chelsea Lately Show)
“Lisa & Ron: Thank you so much for the fabulous “Creating a Healthy Home” CD that you gave to our speakers. You truly went above and beyond! Your CD will be a lasting reminder of the conference as well as the importance of our environment and good health! You are wonderful and amazingly generous. Thank you again for everything and especially for your support of The Women’s Conference.” (2007) Maria Shriver, First Lady of California
