Cleansing is a subject of huge importance for everybody.

In fact, supporting regular cleansing is the core principle for recovery, optimal health, rejuvenation, and longevity.

So What is Detox?

 

Every 24 hours a natural cleansing process occurs and we simply detox and eliminate unnecessary waste. Detox can also be seen when a person makes lifestyle changes to clear their body of toxins.

These lifestyle changes typically involve abstaining from certain harmful things and optimizing body processes. Some changes are temporary, such as following a cleansing diet, others are permanent.

Here are some different detox options that you can easily incorporate into your daily life:

Plant-Based, Clean, Raw and Alkaline Food Cleanse

This is a cleansing method and sometimes a prolonged diet that consists of uncooked plant-based foods such as fruits and vegetables combined with adequate amounts of raw nuts, seeds, and sprouts. Phyto-nutrients, micro-nutrients, fiber, and enzymes cleanse

vital organs such as the liver, lungs, skin, colon, kidneys, and other systems in the body. It also eliminates acid and balances the alkaline pH level of the blood.

Master Cleanse

This detox consists of a liquid shake such as fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper, organic grade-B maple syrup and water or the same mixture with added psyllium husk powder for deeper colon cleanse. Both methods aid cleansing of the liver and colon, resulting in good bowel movement, liver function, and beautiful skin.

Liquid Cleanse

A liquid cleanse is an excellent way to cleanse the body while still maintaining energy levels. It involves the consumption of fresh organic vegetable juices, miso or liquid soups, green or berry smoothies, and a lot of water.

Liver Cleanse

Regimes for cleansing the liver incorporate bitter greens and chlorophyll juices such as wheat-grass and dandelion greens. Other liver-happy foods include carrots, celery, limes, lemons, and beets. Spices that offer cleansing effects on the liver include turmeric, rosemary, cayenne, and cumin. Foods to avoid during a liver cleanse are coffee, milk, and sodas.

Juice Cleanse

Juicing is mainly consisting of freshly squeezed vegetables combined with fruits. The best cleansing vegetables are dark leafy greens, parsley, basil, celery, cabbage, cilantro, cucumber, carrots, beets, ginger root, turmeric root and fruits such as green apples, fresh cranberry, lemon, and pineapple. If possible use organic and local produce using a slow and cold press juicer.

Mental Detox

Trying to relinquish the digital things causes you to feel negative. Try following more positive, optimistic, and encouraging things that make you more happy and inspired.

In order to manage stress effectively and

improve your cognitive health, you could consider trying meditation.

Only a few minutes per day of meditation can help you relax, refocus your mind, restore your inner flow, and can give you a sense of peace and well-being.

There are countless meditation practices and amazing channels online guided by trained instructors to support you at every step.

You can also practice meditation on your own, using youtube videos, online audios, or other guidances.
