SP Purification Program Day11: Going Cold Turkey

A common response to my purification blog posts is:

" I could never go cold turkey!"

We didn't. This program is a another step in a process that started in April of this year. After I became ill (read the details here). After some detours, I was blessed to find doctors that were familiar with what was happening and had the tools to start the healing process.

The Purification Process

This was NOT step one for us. We have been adjusting our eating habits, finding places with healthy foods we trust, and cleaning our system with a supplement protocol from our doctor for a couple of months.

This process can aggravate the body. If your body is too toxic you may NOT be ready for it. You need to check with your doctor before starting this program. That is why you can not get the materials we use everywhere.

I do believe a purification program is important for everyone, there are simply too may toxins in our environment not to, BUT I think that when you do it is very individual. I also believe that being supported my a specialist while you are going through it is a must!

I have tried to go the self-diagnosis route with books, health food stores, internet research, and friends suggestions, while I did receive relief and benefits in some cases I have realized that seeking wise counsel is the route for me. (Not that my friends aren't wise, but it is not their passion or profession. Love you all!)

The Right Motivation

While I want to share our story and our solution, I do not want to motivate people to make the changes we did because of the emotion of our story, or because they think we have found the magic process. I want to motivate people to educate themselves to avoid having a story...I don't want you to watch your children suffer, I don't want you to suffer. It is sad that most of us will not take action until we "hit the brick wall".

It is unfortunate that many people will not discover that "choosing wellness is an easier option than navigating illness".

If you don't know where to start, here are my daily basics:

1) Clean Water
2) Healthy Food
3) Move More

If you don't drink water, start...If you haven't eaten vegetables since your parents made you, crunch away...If you can't remember how to exercise, bend over and touch your toes!

Here is my Daily Intake Journal for Day 11:
