Key Insights:
When undergoing a detox or cleanse, your mindset will undoubtedly impact the outcome. Understanding the psychological components of cleansing is key to achieving great results.
Ancient cultures have long understood the importance of fasting and cleansing the body of toxins. These were practices that were seen to optimize the body and all its functions -- an intelligent nutritional defense for the body.
Today human beings are bombarded with all sorts of pollutants from the air, water and earth around us. The body has to combat tens of thousands of artificial chemicals every year. This is why a cleanse or detox can be so important.
The process of fasting or undergoing a detox has value beyond just the physical. It can help to eliminate poisons stored in the body and bring about emotional detox as well.
The healing, repair and maintenance of body tissue happens when there is a physiologic relaxation response from the body. So it is important to let go and slow down, and to check in with the body before going in for a cleanse or detox.
