I find that people are more likely to keep to a detox&nbsp;when they are emotionally invested and mentally set on making the commitment towards their health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Remember that we also harbor emotional toxins and this can be a perfect time to release the load we are&nbsp;carrying!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Here are a few ways you can go about mentally preparing for a successful cleanse.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Set Your Intention. Take the time to write down what you hope to gain from this experience and the ways in which you believe your life will be different once your goal is achieved. Do you seek to increase your energy level or improve your mental clarity? Perhaps you\u2019d like to drop some excess winter weight? Get clear on your intention and commit to activities that will help you achieve your goal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Inform Your Family &amp; Friends. To help ensure your success, tell your inner circle that you\u2019ll be cleansing. Get everyone on the same page, so that they\u2019ll understand if you decide to avoid certain social settings, such as those that involve excessive processed foods or where alcohol is being consumed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Our loved ones are often fantastic at helping to hold us accountable to our commitments and for providing some extra moral support. Get them involved!<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Listen to Your Body and Learn About Yourself. If you feel like you may be close to breaking your cleanse before the desired amount of time, step back and look at the underlying behavior patterns that are influencing your food cravings. Did you have a stressful day at work? Are your relationships feeling particularly draining in that moment?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">If you evaluate your eating habits from a holistic standpoint, you\u2019ll see that there are emotional triggers that influence, when, why and how much we eat. Cleansing can be a great way to uncover your emotional connection to food. Take a moment to examine which situations send you to the refrigerator seeking comfort food.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Visualize. Visualization is a handy tool that can be utilized in helping you successfully complete the cleanse and in achieving many health-related goals.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Visualize having successfully completed your detox. Think about the ways in which your life has improved since achieving your goal. Will you be more productive at work? Will you have increased patience with your children? Will you spring out of bed in the morning and excitedly head to spin class?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Take time to see the results that you desire in your mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Keep it in Perspective. Remember, the time you spend cleansing is extraordinarily short in comparison to the rest of your life, and the results are exceptional! This experience will help flex your self-discipline, willpower and self-control muscles. It will also heighten your awareness regarding your food choices and help you to create new, healthier habits going forward.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Another incentive to keep in mind: you\u2019ll save money on dining out!<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Internalize the Health Benefits: If you feel stuck, recall your internal list about what this cleanse is going to help you achieve. Here\u2019s the shortlist:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Improved sleep<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Sustained energy and endurance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Reduction in bloating<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Decreased headache and allergy symptoms<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Regulation of hormones and menstrual cycle,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Increased sense of smell and taste<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Decrease in food cravings<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Restoration of balance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">\u2013 Reduction in inflammation<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Again, take time to prepare your body and mind every morning upon waking. Focus on your goals for the day, see yourself accomplishing those goals, and enjoy the process.
