In this section, we will discuss the process of the Detox Protocol.  Note, if you are pregnant, you are advised to wait until you have your baby and finish nursing before you begin any type of detox protocol.

What is detoxification?  Detoxification is the process in which your body eliminates or neutralizes toxins from the body.  When you are healthy, and your lymphatic system, bowel, kidneys, lungs, gall bladder and liver are functioning properly, your body does this automatically and does not need any help with detoxification from you beyond feeding your body healthy foods, staying sufficiently hydrated, avoiding excessive toxins, and keeping emotional balance by providing yourself with unconditional love and acceptance.  However, when our bodies become imbalanced for any amount of time, the organs and lymphatic system can no longer detoxify efficiently, and the result is that toxins build up inside of us, get stored in our fat, organs, and brain, and we become chronically ill in any number of various ways, depending upon where the greatest weakness exists in our bodies.

It is at this point when we must realize that we need to help our bodies with the detoxification process.  It helps to think about an automobile.  You change your oil and filter.  Why?  Because sediment is deposited in the oil over time, and the oil becomes thick, building up sludge.  This not only affects your car’s performance, but it also causes engine failure.  Your car can’t change its own oil and filter.  It’s something we have to do.  In the case of our bodies, our bodies can and do “change our oil and filters,” so to speak, by way of natural process, when we are healthy – however – when too much sludge, or toxicity, has built up in our blood, cells, organs, tissues, brain, and lymphatic system, bodily performance is adversely affected, and we develop symptoms that are thought of as diseases.  If we don’t help our bodies detoxify, we die.

So how do we go about helping our bodies detoxify?  We are going to discuss a few methods of detoxifying over the next few pages.  We’ll begin with lymphatic support, and then move on to each of the cleanses – the bowels, the parasites, the kidneys and lungs, the liver and gall bladder, the candida, the heavy metals, and then we will finally end with a discussion of how to maintain your health once you have detoxified.

I’d like to take the time now to explain something about detoxification that people often forget to mention about the process.  Like childbirth, the rewards of the process are such that it’s easy to forget the unpleasantness you went through before attaining the rewards.  As you go through the Detox Protocol, poisons and toxins will be moving throughout your body, and you may expect to feel unwell both physically and emotionally at times.  The more toxic you are, the more unpleasantness you can expect to experience.  You may feel tired and unable to keep up with the demands of your life.  Be prepared to feel overly-emotional, insecure, moody, and downright “cranky” sometimes.  There will be times when you may even feel like you’re going crazy as you go through detoxification.  This is normal, and in fact, this means that your detox is working.  However, you may feel the need to minimize your exposure to other people and demands at times during this process.  Understand that you are not going through a personality change.  You are still you.  Do not berate yourself if you snap at a loved one or feel like you want to throw something for no reason.  Do not induce self-blame if you react badly to a person or situation during the Detox Protocol.  You need to understand that this is part of the detoxification process.  It is very important that you think of yourself positively at all times, and love yourself unconditionally.  Do not blame yourself for the discomfort you are feeling while you go through your Detox Protocol.  This discomfort is temporary and will improve as you become toxin free.  Help your loved ones to understand this process, as they may not understand why you may not seem to be yourself at times.  Detoxification is a crucial process to your entire body, mind, and spirit.  If it becomes unbearable, slow your detoxification down.  Always drink plenty of pure water to help flush the toxins out of your body, engage in relaxing activities as often as you possibly can, and above all else, support your lymphatic system throughout this process.  While the lymphatic support step is listed here as your first step, I want you to understand that this is also the never-ending step.  You will not stop your lymphatic support when you reach step 2.  You will always continue supporting your lymph system.  The next page will give you my best pointers on how to support your lymph system during your detox.
