Detoxing




Detoxing is not pleasant. The word itself makes me cringe. Throughout our lives we fill ourselves up with things that cause us stress, heartache, anger, disappointment, false beliefs, etc. We are then faced with the challenge of making corrections; of detoxing our lives.

In order to begin your detox, you have to take a look at what is concerning you. Are you feeling blocked by choices you've made? Are you so overwhelmed with options that you just want to hide under the covers?

One of the first detox steps to take is to acknowledge where or what needs changing. Each of us were raised with beliefs passed down from generation to generation. We also have beliefs passed on to us from teachers, bosses and friends (to name a few). As we get older, we may begin to question our belief system. How do we rid ourselves of false beliefs, false ideas and false concepts?

Having the desire to make changes is another step. Making changes won't always be easy. There will be roadblocks and challenges to face. Doubt will rear its ugly head causing us to question whether making any changes is worth the effort. What is stopping you from letting go of things that you continue to hold on to? Take action by getting rid of anything that serves no purpose or causes you to cease moving forward.

As you go through your detox, there will be both good and bad days. If you feel yourself wanting to give up, focus on the goal of a new you. If you slip and get off track, that's ok. Get back on board. The difference will be in whether you continue with your detox or revert back to your old habits/ways.

You can't complete your cleanse if you disregard the positive steps you've taken. Continue to unclog your mind. Free yourself of any limitations. Detoxing is a process that you will continue throughout your life.  The question is: How often do you really want to repeat the process?
