Foggy head, just feeling “off”, grumpy, head achy, or just out of sorts.   Consider... Detoxing. 

The true definition of Wellness is the state or condition of being in good physical and mental health.  “Stress affects every aspect of wellness”.  Our world is full of stress relief remedies and detox being on of the most natural can be a great tool for us.  Detox mean to literally rid the body of poisonous substance and that poison is stress, atop all the other chemicals we are exposed to.

1) Intermittent fasting – giving our organs a break from constantly working and digesting our food – to taking a break and cleaning up some of the toxins (yes, our body is built to do just that)

2)   Breathwork --- conscious control breathing is an important detox, to help clear the mind, manage emotions and improve mental and physical health.  Direct effect to the blood carrying oxygen to all the cells in the body.

3)  EZ water and organic juicing to help flush toxins – structured water and certain juicing, like celery, lemon and cucumber are great liquids to help flush the body.  Adding Chlorophyll to the water is excellent for detoxing, due to its natural pH levels

4)  Dry skin Brushing – before morning shower/bath, use a mitt, brush or loofa with circular movements towards the torso, starting closest to the torso, then moving distally – always toward the torso.  Using gentle strokes will help metabolism of fat deposits and assists in lymphatic flow.
