The most beneficial substance for your health is the water you drink — because it can detox every organ of the body. I have seen amazing results for clients by just changing the type and amount of water they drink.
I have also experienced amazing results for myself, including better skin, better joints, and no more acid reflux.
I want to explore today how we can make some dramatic steps toward health by using nature’s solution to pollution, which is dilution. I prefer high-quality, filtered water with minerals. But if you’re on a budget, taking distilled water and adding a pinch of Himalaya salt to it will do the trick.
Water Fasting
The benefits of water fasting are immense and life-changing. If you adopt this principle once a week or even just once a month, you will see a dramatic shifts in your body.
When water fasting, I recommend that you salt your water to maintain electrolytes and proper brain balance. And I don’t recommend fasting for more than a three day in this type of detox.
You will reset your metabolism and start getting rid of fat-soluble toxins. You will also clean your colon and allow your digestive system to rest, thus increasing your energy levels.
On the spiritual side, it will bring out feelings that we all hide with the comfort that food brings us.
Detox Baths
Water can be used to stimulate the body’s lymphatic system change your skin health dramatically. When starting detox baths, I recommend getting a shower or bath filter so you can start with clean water.
I love to add bentonite clay powder to my bath to detoxify my body through the skin. When warm water opens the pores, the clay draws toxins out and traps them in the clay — and then down the drain they go.
I also love to add Epsom salt or Himalaya pink salt in large amounts — about 2 cups in a bath. Salt can really nourish the skin and help give you minerals through the skin. Salt in steam can heal your lungs (a practice called Halo therapy).
Water-Based Drinks
It goes without saying that water is the best medium for your favorite herbal teas, coffee, and tonics.I recommend drinking herbal, caffeine-free tea made with high quality water as an alternative to the excess coffee that we all are guilty of drinking at times.
You can also make great drinks like chia water by taking 16 ounces of water and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds mixing them together; then let set for 15 minutes.This is a great digestive tonic and fiber supplement.
Water can change your life dramatically. I hope I have inspired you to indulge in these detoxes and appreciate water more or what it can do.
