It begins when you recognize your body needs a rest and a thorough cleanse.
And so, your whole body detox begins with your mind.
Now you will focus on the needs of your body more than usual. How many years has your body supported you through all the demands?
It's a sign of the times that meals are rushed and the needs of the body often come last on the long to do list.
A shift in your mind, your attention, is needed - listen to your body for the next few weeks.
Recognize the beliefs that hold you back, like the one that all thinking is from your brain.
Drop the false belief. Trillions of cells throughout your body have their own innate intelligence. Through them, the body functions as one unit.
This amazing body keeps you on your feet. Often it doesn't get the nutrition it needs. On top of that, it is bombarded with toxins: air pollution, processed food, and even the electronic airwaves.
So what can you do? Do a full body detox for the body's normal cleansing cycle, 3 weeks.
The great news is that you will release over half of the accumulated waste in your system in the first 3 weeks. What has built over years of eating the Standard American Diet (SAD) and living a stressful life is let go.
Give your body this gift and make it a point to especially listen to your body during this time.
Tired and stressed out?
Rather than reach for coffee, rest a little.
Be aware of how you feel after a meal. Are you feeling drained?
The culprit is the enzyme-less and nutrient-less food you may be eating. Because while digestion does take a lot of energy, you shouldn't feel wiped out after eating.
It doesn't have to be this way.
Try out for yourself eating a salad with organic veggies and sprouts, and see how different you feel.
A full body detox encompasses more than this, you can learn more. But you must start with an attitude of listening to your body.
