The real work begins when we develop a plan of action to remove fat soluble toxins from our organs.
I don't know about you, but I've been "detoxing" my body for decades, and as you'll hear....I've even done coffee enemas. Maybe that's TMI, but I did them before I even knew the impact of them. Sure, they can be a pain in the butt (ba-dum-dum!). However, there are lots of benefits as long as you are using coffee that isn't contaminated. :/
The most obvious reason WHY we should detox is, accumulation.
Toxins are everywhere. Our food, water, air, body products, and even our bodies create a toxic environment depending on our mental health.
When we are stressed, or have suffered trauma of any kind, our bodies try to protect us by creating cortisol. This is a necessary impulse, but it depletes our oxytocin reserves if we are constantly on edge. I know I'm not alone acknowledging that the past two years have had us ALL on edge...and there really isn't much relief in the immediate future.
I mean, we are facing inflation and there's international conflict happening right now that will impact us all...
The good news is...there are ways we can find equilibrium and reduce the toxic impact on our bodies. Sure, some of it will rely on our mental fortitude - knowing that most of what we face everyday is beyond our immediate control - but most of it will rely on our ability to do what we can to reduce our toxic load.
I hope you listen to this episode and share it with someone you love...and I also hope you check out the podcast episode I did with the folks over at the Food Junkies Podcast.
Next week, Spencer will join us again for Part 2.
Parasites. Mmmmm....delish.
