Instructions

  1. The Routine

    • 1

      Begin your morning by taking Vitamin C with a multivitamin. Drink a glass of green tea instead of coffee. Green tea will help speed up the liver's ability to release toxins.

    • 2

      Drink an 8 ounce glass of water with a teaspoon of psyllium to aid in cleansing the colon.

    • 3

      Take some time to meditate, write in a journal, or do light exercise such as yoga or tai chi. It's important to cleanse and clear the mind early in the day. Stress can be toxic to the body. Relaxation will help to eliminate stress.

    • 4

      Take your morning shower in warm water. Occasionally, switch to cold water for a few seconds. This will help to remove toxins from the skin. Use a body brush to lightly massage away dead skin.

    • 5

      Drink warm water with fresh lemons for breakfast. Have a light breakfast of a smoothie made with strawberries, blueberries and other fruits. Add flax seed to your smoothie for extra fiber.

    • 6

      At lunch, saute green vegetables with roots of your choice. Cook with light oil and garlic. Garlic is an excellent blood cleanser. Serve the vegetables with brown rice.

    • 7

      Spend 30 minutes before dinner performing aerobic exercise. This promotes sweating that will release toxins.

    • 8

      Prepare beans for dinner. Also, eat more greens and root vegetables served with brown rice.

    • 9

      Bathe in 1 cup of bath salt and baking soda at the end of your night. Rinse with cool water.

    • 10

      Drink 1 teaspoon of psyllium in a glass of water. Write or do light yoga before bed.
