Aims of detox

The aims of a detox programme are to reduce the workload of the digestive system, allowing it to perform more efficiently, and to stimulate the parts of your body that are responsible for cleansing and elimination. Successful detoxing depends for the main part on what you eat and drink, but it can be complemented by body therapies to speed up the elimination of toxins, and mind therapies to help you relax and reduce stress levels. The intention is to coax your mind and body to rid itself of waste, replacing it with revitalizing and nurturing foods and thoughts.

The food detox programme improves the digestive system and immunity; reduces your exposure to toxins; and, finally, increases the actions of the liver and kidneys, the main organs of detoxification. It will provide you with everything you need for a full internal spring clean. However, to get the most out of detoxing you need to look after your mind as well as your body. Well-being depends on maintaining a balance between your emotional, mental, spiritual and physical health, and if this balance is upset it disrupts your body's harmony and leads to ill health. The body and mind detox programme contains simple yet effective techniques that will help you to look after your body and encourage a positive state of mind to promote all-round well-being and good health.

Benefits of detox

Detoxing will improve your appearance, regulate your sleep patterns and boost your emotional well-being. It will increase your vitality and your underlying health and may also help you lose weight.

1. Improved appearance

One of the key benefits of detoxing is just how much better you will look. Apart from reducing bloating, streamlining your body and toning your muscles through the combination of diet and body therapies, your skin will be transformed. Expect your skin to look softer and better hydrated, your complexion to be clearer and the condition of your hair and nails to improve significantly. There should be less puffiness under your eyes and the eyes themselves should be clearer and brighter. You'll even find your teeth are brighter as you avoid discoloring tannins present in tea, coffee and red wine.
