You know how great you feel when you finish spring cleaning. Your closets are organized, and all of your home’s nooks and crannies are free of dirt and clutter. This spring, you can extend that feeling of well-being to your body by cleansing from the inside out.

Just as you want to rid your home of dust and grime, you may also want to do something extra to rid your body of toxins. Ridding yourself of those chemicals may allow your body to absorb more nutrients from your food, may help kick start your weight loss plan, and provide you with newfound energy. From hair spray and lawn fertilizer to hormones and preservatives, we inhale, ingest and absorb toxic chemicals every day. Our internal cleansing system is designed to remove natural waste products. But it might need a little help.

Think your body isn’t overloaded? The average home contains more than 1,000 chemicals. We all struggle with the amount of substances that build up in our systems. Our bodies won’t cleanse themselves of anything new until they get rid of the toxins already on board. Starting this spring with a whole body cleanse may help to re-set and re-fortify the body’s natural internal cleansing process.

I love the Clean Start Cleanse and you can buy it here!

I’d like to offer these internal ‘spring cleaning’ tips:

Try to drink at least 64 ounces of bottled or filtered water every day.

Avoid eating a lot of highly processed foods and foods with refined flour, sugar, saturated fats or artificial sweeteners.

Take it easy and give your body the time it needs to rest and re-build while you’re cleansing.

Gentle stretching, short walks in the fresh air and yoga are all good choices.

Follow these tips and you may feel lighter, cleaner and more revitalized this spring.
