In our industrialized world, we produce more and more toxic compounds that find their way in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat and what we put on our skin.
Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing stored substances (called toxins) that can be harmful to our health such as:
Environmental Toxins found in:
~ Foods, beverages, nutritional supplements
~ Air
~ Cosmetics
~ Dental amalgams
Internal toxins such as:
~ Fats especially oxidized fats and cholesterol
~ Free radicals, and
~ Other irritating molecules that may come from poor digestion, colon sluggishness and poor elimination (from the skin and kidneys)
~ Stress (both mental and physical)
Over the years we can reach what is called Total Toxin Overload or Body Burden which is a consequence of a slow toxic build up in fat, joints, the brain, and various other tissues, potentially leading to a variety of health issues.

~”Lazy day”, Plum Village’s mindfulness practice of being rather than doing. On Lazy Day, there are no scheduled tasks, no one has to do anything, and the day is allowed to unfold naturally and with ease. You need nothing but your intention for this day of Cleanse!
To your Health!
