Change Your Plate, Change Your Life

Have you thought about trying a cleanse/detox but not sure if it is right for you?  
When done correctly --  that is to say eating whole, real foods-- getting your body clean and healthy can have life changing benefits.  By simply changing what you put on your plate, you could quite possibly change your life!  

Detoxification can seem intimidating, but it doesn't have to be. For me, simply changing the language from detox to cleanse makes it feel more doable and less scary. And if you know me at all, then you know I am not an advocate of deprivation!  

That is why I created my signature program REVIVIFY to give you the opportunity to get in tune with your body and learn once and for all how the foods been eating are actually affecting your day to day life, and your long term health.  

You don’t have to do a 30-day juice cleanse or some crazy water fast to get the benefits of detoxification.  Sitting in a steam room or sauna, yoga, tai chi, eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, avoiding meat one day a week, Epsom salt and therapeutic clay baths, emotional freedom technique, affirmations and acupuncture and acupressure are all excellent ways to gently detoxify your body.  
However, you will hands down experience accelerated cleansing benefits when you incorporate a nutritional cleanse a few times a year. 

Ask yourself these questions:

  • Are your energy levels inconsistent or non-existent?
  • Do you have aches and pains that can’t be explained by over-use or injury?
  • Are you having a hard time losing weight no matter how hard you try?
  • Do you have skin issues, digestive ailments, seasonal allergies or fertility issues that medication hasn’t helped?

These symptoms may be directly related to the foods you eat – even the “healthy” stuff.

If you answered yes to any of those questions, it may be time for you to give your body a reboot!  Give new life to your body and commit to REVIVIFY your life. The next program starts on June 20th the first day of Summer! 

Still not convinced? Here are 10 reasons to do a cleanse.

 

1. Remove Toxins from your body

Long-term exposure to toxins (environmental pollutants, cancer-causing chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, heavy metals, and industrial waste) affects our metabolism, behavior, immune system, and leads to disease. They are stored in tissues and cells throughout the body, including the brain, often for years – yikes! 

2. Prevent chronic disease.

Environmental toxins are responsible for many cancers, neurological diseases, heart disease, strokes... you name it. Our bodies do have a built-in detox function to deal with these dangers, but those systems are constantly overloaded! Cleansing/detoxing assists and improves what our bodies are trying to do naturally.

3. Enhance immune system function.

A compromised immune system makes us vulnerable to colds and flus, affecting our quality of life and productivity. Regular cleansing helps strengthen immune system functioning and fights off infection.

4. Lose weight.

Toxins affect the body's natural ability to burn fat, leading to weight gain. Diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure are directly linked to weight issues. Cleansing rids the body of toxins stored in fat cells and increases metabolism.

5. Slow premature aging.

Detoxing rids the body of free radicals and heavy metals partially responsible for aging. Cleansing helps to increase nutrient absorption, including antioxidants and vitamins that help fight oxidative stress.

6. Improve quality of life.

Simply put, our bodies don't function very well when they're loaded with toxic Sh$t. We may have joint pain, headaches, digestive disorders, sleep problems, and lack of energy. 

7. Increase energy.

You will have more mental, physical, and emotional energy after detoxing. People tend to sleep better and need less of it.

8. Improve skin quality.

Diet and environmental toxins undeniably affect skin. Detoxing improves acne, and strengthens hair and nails, and gives us a natural, healthy glow.

9. Mental and emotional clarity.

When the body's systems are balanced, a shift occurs with our mental and emotional states. We can deal with more when we're clear and grounded. We can make better decisions, analyze accurately, and see things differently.

10. Restore balance to our body's systems.

One Sad Ass Fact: Most of us take better care of our cars than we do our bodies. We get tune-ups, tires rotated & change the oil regularly. Think of the machine that is YOUR BODY like a car.

The REVIVIFY whole body renewal is a total tune-up for your unique machine – a small action that can keep you running smoothly and extend the length and quality of your life.

I created my signature program REVIVIFY to guide you step by step as you detoxify your body, ignite a process of deep healing, discover what food makes you feel the best, and create a sustainable way of eating that will support you on your wellness journey to vibrant health and longevity. All year long!  

Think of it as a short-term nutritional reset. A whole body reboot designed to help you put an end to unhealthy cravings and habits, restore a healthy metabolism, heal your digestive tract, and balance your immune system. Plus, I add a little mind/body/spirit cleansing to give you the whole shebang!  My next whole body reboot starts June 20th!  Find out more details HERE.
