I Want To Feel Better - Inside & Out
How
To Detoxify And Cleanse Your Whole Self
If you think about it, our bodies are a lot
like refrigerators. They come in all sizes, configurations
and colors, and they hold our food and drink for utilization
at the necessary time. And like refrigerators, our bodies occasionally
get overcrowded, filled with stale or overripe food, and in
need of a good scrubbing from the inside out. Over time, toxins
can build up in our system, digestion becomes sluggish, and
we begin to feel generally ill. Surprisingly, many people don’t
realize that what goes on in our gut can affect the rest of
our body.
The road to feeling better is as simple as detoxifying and
cleansing your system on a regular basis. Some common and less
serious conditions that may be helped by an occasional detox
include constipation, intestinal cramping, frequent urinary
infections and even chronic bad breath. Symptoms of the more
serious digestive disorders like Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s
Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome may also be relieved.
However, detoxifying is in no way intended to treat or cure
any disorders that require proper medical care.
Detoxifying
your body can be as simple or complex as you make it. If you’re frequently ill, eat on the run, or have digestive
issues, a complete colon cleansing may be required to feel
your best again. However, if you eat well and rarely get sick,
you can cleanse by simply taking part in a 48-hour fast consisting
of clear liquids. Just remember you are trying to rid your
body of toxins and balance out the natural bacteria in the
gut. Many cleansing products on the market help you accomplish
this by flushing the kidneys, reviving the liver’s functions,
and restoring the bacterial balance. Your body will thank you
for the cleaning, trust me.
That’s a great start to get you moving back to wellness, but
it’s not just your body that needs occasional cleaning. When
was the last time you detoxed your mind?
Do you ever find it difficult to concentrate? Do you constantly
berate yourself for your “failures” or neglect caring for yourself
properly? If you have spent years besieged by negative or limiting
thoughts, holding on to old grudges, emotional traumas and
generally thinking badly about yourself, you probably have
a lot of mental toxins that interfere with your day to day
performance.
Clearing these toxins out of your mind can be as simple as
going on a “negativity fast” for a few weeks. Do your best
to turn away from negativity in all forms. Avoid spending time
with people who leave you feeling stressed or drained. Turn
off the evening news and invest that time into reading positive
material. If you absolutely must find out what’s happening
in the world, do a quick skim of the headlines on a major news
network website – but do not read any of the stories unless
there is a compelling reason why you need to do so. After a
few days of this, you’ll quickly realize that the majority
of stories don’t affect you personally and you really aren’t
missing anything by avoiding them.
Once your mind begins to clear, you’ll probably realize just
how deeply enmeshed in negative thought patterns you really
were. After a week or two of more positive thought patterns,
you’ll likely find yourself feeling lighter and happier on
a regular basis, nurturing your spirit and making your self-care
a priority.
