Refine your thinking about Detoxing
The body naturally detoxifies through its liver, heart, lungs, skin and more. Every night while you sleep the body is hard at work resetting its system and clearing toxins from your body. Even with the healthiest of diets, good sleep and good sweat, your body can often benefit from more intentional detoxing. Our food supply and daily lives are hyper-dosed with chemicals, toxins and additives that can overwhelm the natural detoxification process. Choosing to do a nutritionally-based and gentle detox can help support your natural detoxification processes to enhance the efficiency with which you rid your body of those toxins and harmful additives and restore balance. In addition, choosing a Detox that extends beyond nutrition can be especially important – often times we tax our system with too much screen time, not enough movement and the big one - stress. Detoxing is really an entry point for healthy living and a great way to discover or recommit to your authentic health journey.
Not all detoxes are alike, though, and finding a nutritionally-based, medically-supported detox that brings awareness and attention to more than just food is key. We love a holistic detox or health reset that considers your nutrition, movement, sleep, spirituality and self-care. By incorporating all these aspects in a detox, you can reset most of your health habits in a powerful and lasting way. By gently eliminating common trigger foods and tapping into how you authentically feel when you eat, move, sleep and breathe, you can develop a clear sense of what is and isn’t working for you.
