How important are Spring detoxes?

Lots of people are enquiring about Spring detoxes at the moment, trying to throw off the blurgies of winter. A detox can span a range of things from simple tweaks in your diet to complex cleanses. Either way, we want to rid our body of toxins that processed food, pollution and alcohol leave behind.

Your body already knows how to detoxify itself so it's important not to impede the natural process.

Doing some slow breathing, a little more exercise (daily walks are fabulous), letting go of stressful emotions and stocking the fridge with whole foods will start you in the right direction. Little things like adding a fresh juice to your diet a few times a week will cleanse your palate and have you looking for healthy foods. And just a reminder, keep away from sugar filled sodas.
