I was watching The Dr. Oz show the other day and he was talking about alternative medicine. So, you know I was instantly glued to the television! He had Deepak Chopra on there speaking about the benefits of meditation, Dr. Mercola talking about the benefits of not relying on pharmaceuticals and Kathy Freston, author of Quantum Wellness:The 21-Day Essential Guide to Healing Your Mind, Body and Spirit
.
I have seen her before on Oprah, speaking about one of her books on natural wellness. Well on the Dr. Oz show, she spoke about the one thing she felt like everyone should do. It was a 21-day detox, or vegan cleanse, that she recommends be done one to two times a year. With the detox, you are abstaining completely from:
- Sugar
- Alcohol
- Caffeine
- Gluten (usually found in pastas and breads)
- Red meat
I think that this Quantum Wellness Detox will definitely do my body some good. I intend to start on July 9 th, when I get some things out of the way and can really focus on it. I am going to stock up on lots of fruits, veggies, fish and whole grains. I will be sure to let you know how it goes!
Who wants to join me on this 21-day detox on July 9th? Have you ever done a detox?
I would like to try it with you, but I know I'll end up veering off course! lol
ReplyDeleteCan you share some of things you'll be eating? Like an example of a days' menu plan or something? Please!
