This book is not about miracle detox drinks and diets that will wash away your belly fat. It's about embracing a new way of nurturing yourself and making lifestyle changes to assist your overburdened body along with its natural detoxification processes.
I see the everyday process of feeding ourselves as an intimate labor of love and respect. Nowadays, we are too often overwhelmed by the struggles of our daily life, so we put this process at the bottom of our priority list. We don't have the time to do it properly, we are too stressed or even blame ourselves for being selfish or not 'modern enough' if we give the process too much attention.
We end up buying processed food. Then feeling guilty. Then wasting money on exorbitant detox programs. Then burning out from too much stress, pressure, and intense training and thus surrender again to junk food.
On our 'to-do' list, the process of authentic self-care fell way down. We are disconnected from our real selves and the things that really matter.
Our feeding process is constantly disrupted by the chemical strategies employed to cheat the system and increase food production. The nutrient density in our food ingredients has declined. Vegetables today contain substantially lower levels of nutrients than they did a few decades ago.
Many aspects of the modern lifestyle have become increasingly toxic to our health. The roots of many chronic illnesses and imbalances can be found in poor nutrition, sedentary lifestyles, and excessive stress.
Our body does have natural detoxification processes, but we must assist it through the toxic assault by giving it the right nutrients. Prolonged congestion and inflammation affect the function of our detoxification organs, preventing them from getting rid of toxins.
Illnesses arise from congestion into the tissues of these routes, and conditions have to prevail within the body before disease sets in. When the cells are full of vitality, pathogens cannot break into our tissues. It's only when our cells become weakened through congestion due to toxin accumulation that the illnesses occur.
This is why we need to learn to reconnect with our body, nurture it with the right foods, and support its natural detoxification processes. Putting attention and dedication into the process of feeding must become a labor of love and respect for ourselves again.
