Congestion & The Body

A large factor, which contributes to diseases, is congestion. Congestion affects every aspect of the body. The body is a truly remarkable machine which goes through an amazing amount of accommodations everyday, due to our neglect to provide adequate nutrients that the body needs as well as due to us eating too much food, or the wrong combination of foods suitable to our blood type.

When the body is free of congestion and has adequate nutrients, it can heal most things even before we know that we are sick, but when we congest our bodies year after year and keep adding more toxins into it, then it has to break down at the weakest point. For all cases of congestion, it is recommended to go on a Short Juice fast and take appropriate herbs. Detoxification is commonly engaged in practice these days, but some people still do not understand and are afraid of it.

During these cleanses, it is a nice time to work on your spiritual body. Lie in bed quietly reading a book, which will provide you with spiritual stimulation, pray and meditate. Take a warm bath with aromatherapy oils, get a massage or colonic. Pamper yourself and nurture yourself, it is an extremely kind act to your body. To do these cleanses, your body and mind will thank you, even if it may give you some unpleasant symptoms during cleansing

Congratulations on your choice to detoxify your body! This means that you love yourself and you love your body, it also means that you are taking responsibility for your well being. I acknowledge you for this choice.

Symptoms of Detoxification.
When toxins start leaving the body, symptoms will occur. Whatever happens is always for the best. A person may even start having more symptoms as the toxins leave the body. This is temporary as long as you continue with the detoxification process! You could have other symptoms arise which you have never had before, you may have symptoms arise from a condition you had 10-20, or more years ago. Once you have an experience of disease within the body which is not cleared up, then the symptoms of that disease are likely to come up on some layer of your detoxification process, ( a patient of ours experienced the said process, on one of our retreats.) when this occurs, bless these symptoms and let them go!!
Good luck.
