There is a lot of hype about the
benefits of internal cleansing
and detoxing the body. What
does it mean? How does it apply
to you or me?!
There are many theories
suggesting that inflammation
is the root of all or most
diseases and illnesses. If you
are dealing with an acute or
chronic condition, inflammation
is probably a culprit. Chronic
inflammation is thought to
arise from the digestive system
and liver. Even conditions like
high cholesterol, weight gain,
allergies and skin conditions
can be related to this theory.
Therefore,
cleansing
is
necessary to clear or detox
the body in order to move to a
healthy balance.
I did not know that I was dealing
with chronic inflammation. I
started using my essential oils
and began to have some skin
irritations. I knew that I had
good quality oils so I had a
feeling something was going on
inside my body.
Through
research
and
consultation,
I
discovered
that I was dealing with a toxin
commonly found in industrial
cleaning products. Toxins can
lay dormant in the fat tissues
of our body which includes the
skin. This may be why I showed
a skin irritation to certain oils.
So, my next question was –
how do I get this cleared?!
Well, here are some short tips
suggested to me:
Diet
– avoiding inflammatory
foods such as sugar and wheat.
Exercise
– releases feel good
emotions that may reduce
inflammation.
Environment
– awareness of toxins
in cleaning products and actively
switching togreen cleanoptions.
Relaxation therapies
– may
minimize inflammation and
bring balance.

Internal Cleansing & Detoxing,
Oh MY – does it apply to Me?!
