Spring Detox for a Healthier Body and Mind

by Eva Giannone

If we lived in a clean environment, drank clean water, ate only the food we grew ourselves, and our thoughts were pure sweetness and light, there would be no need to worry about detoxification. Unfortunately, that’s not the case for most of the world’s population. 

Luckily, our bodies are smarter than we often give them credit for. The body simply can’t allow toxic substances to circulate through its vital organs so it makes waste dumps inside itself if there is not time for a proper clean up. For example, heavy metals are deposited in adipose tissue, which could be one reason for the body refusing to burn off fat, as it would result in releasing all that contamination into the blood. Other waste substances are either stored in the joints and ligaments or become encapsulated to form cysts. 

The following methods for detoxifying our bodies require us to be strong-willed, and indeed it is the only requirement we need.

Intermittent Fasting

Those who can refrain from eating for at least 17 hours between meals are better able to support their body’s natural ability to self-restore, which the experts call autophagy. Autophagy is a complex mechanism, refined by evolution, through which the body maintains stable conditions by breaking down its own redundant or damaged components.

Hot and Cold Therapy

The sauna is an ancient detoxification method, during which waste substances leave the body through increased perspiration. Evidence suggests that people who regularly participate in cold water immersion therapy have healthier, more resilient bodies. The combined effects of heat and cold, in general, support energy flow in the body along with boosting overall immunity.

The Wim Hof Breathing Method

This special breathing technique can make the blood more alkaline and, as proven by subsequent scientific studies, can eliminate unwanted microorganisms and their toxic products from the body.

In addition, certain herbs can also offer detoxification support as well, including milk thistle and dandelion.
