Not only are we constantly barraged by noise and air pollution, we're regularly filling our bodies with garbage: chemicals, additives, even poisons. So it's never been so important to cleanse both our minds and our bodies of the toxins we can't seem to escape in our day-to-day life.
But detoxing doesn't have to mean forking out a small fortune at an uppity spa. Here are 5 ways you can give your body a break, naturally:
- Drink lots of water. It flushes the system.
- Sweat, either in a sauna or steam room, or through exercise.
- Meditate or pray regularly, and take deep, cleansing breaths when you do.
- Eliminate electronics from your bedroom.
- Cleanse your body with natural herbs like dandelion and ginger root.
