Spring
into better, more vibrant health with these daily detoxification steps:
- Drink
enough water.
How much is enough? Start with your weight in pounds, divide this
in two, and drink about that many ounces throughout the day. Drink room
temperature water away from meals. Complete your intake at least 43 hours
before bedtime to avoid waking to urinate.
- Support
your major organ of detoxification.
Take nutritional substances and, or herbs to assist the liver’s cleansing
functions. Turmeric, rosemary and milk thistle are all excellent choices and
are generally safe (check with your ND, MD, or pharmacist first).
- Sweat
through exercise and, or the use of saunas.
When was the last time your moved your body with the intention of
working up a sweat? Recall a time that physical movement was joyful and fun for
you. Envision a way, within your current life situation to move like this
again. How can you make this vision a reality? Thirty
minutes three times a week is a reasonable, health inducing, and attainable goal for regular exercise.
- Use a dry
skin brush to stimulate the lymphatic system and the skin.
Start with small circular brush movements at the tips of your
toes, tops and bottoms, front and back, continue to brush in small circular strokes
from toes towards the heart, eventually brushing all of your skin surfaces
before your daily bath or shower.
- Practice Breathing exercises to detoxify the lungs.
- Ensure
2-3 bowel movements daily. This
will likely be aided by the exercise, water, skin brushing, breathing and
herbal support, if your bowels are still sluggish you may benefit from
dietary improvements and supplementing with a soluble fiber such as flax
seed or psyillium.
