If we retain substances that are meant to be eliminated, the accumulation of toxicity depletes our life force. If we eliminate toxic congestion, our creativity, enthusiasm, and well-being flourish.
- This is as true for our physical and mental health as it is for our environment.
Identifying, avoiding, and neutralizing toxins from our bodies are key to freeing up vital energy, for our bodies are the end products of our experiences in life.
- To recapture vitality, we need to eliminate accumulated toxins, and minimize or exposure to situations and circumstances that have a toxic influence.
Your body is the stage upon which your mind plays out its dramas. It can be a battlefield or a playground, depending on your life’s script.
- If you are feeling mentally and physically depleted, it is because accumulated toxicity has exceeded your capacity to metabolize and discharge it.
We carry the past in our environment, bodies, hearts, and minds. When the burden becomes too heavy, we lose the ability to prosper in the present.
- Therefore, identifying, healing, and releasing unprocessed experiences are essential for restoring our natural vitality.
