Colorado Cleanse- What's Involved

As I have previously mentioned, cleansing is as much mental and spiritual as it is physical, so it's very important to incorporate aspects such as yoga and meditation.  These practices can be done in a short period of time and they will leaving you feeling at ease and at peace.

"What does the Cleanse involve?

During the 2-week Colorado Cleanse you will do a daily practice of yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises, 12 minutes of aerobic exercise, take Ayurvedic herbal formulas that support the detox process, and eat a special kitchari cleanse diet during one of the three phases:
PHASE 1 (Days 1-4) 
To prepare your body to flush these toxins out of their storage sites, we will first make sure that your natural detox channels are functional by following an allergen-free whole foods diet, eating 3 specific foods each day, and taking the specified herbs. This will help:
  • Balance Blood Sugar and Heal Intestinal Villi: Start by stabilizing your blood sugar and healing the intestinal mucosa of your intestinal tract.
  • De-Stagnate the Lymphatic System: Improve the function of your lymphatic system, which drains the gut through the GALT (Gut Associated Lymphatic Tissue) where 80% of the body’s immune system is housed.
  • Thin the Bile and Prepare to Detox: Once the detox channels of the lymph are moving, de-congest the liver and thin the bile. Adequate bile flow is critical in optimizing and maintaining the detox channels of the body.
PHASE 2 (Days 5-11)
During Phase 2, you will eat a simplified diet of nonfat kitchari, which is a specific type of rice and beans prepared in a way that helps heal the digestion. You will also be drinking increasing amounts of ghee each morning, performing an ancient Ayurvedic process called “Oleation.” You will close Phase 2 with a gentle laxative therapy on day 11.
  • Reset Fat Metabolism, Flush the Liver and Detox Toxic Fat: Once the liver and bile are functioning better, cleanse the toxic chemicals that are stored in the fat cells.
  • Self-Inquiry Exercises to help release old emotions, patterns, habits and behaviors that store in the fat cells.
PHASE 3 (Days 12-14)
After the kitchari cleanse diet during Phase 2, you will return to the Phase 1 diet and add a Digestive Reset Protocol to boost your digestive fire.
  • Reset Digestive Strength: After the cleanse, reset your upper digestive strength, which is the most common cause of digestive distress.
AFTER THE CLEANSE 
You will continue taking your herbal formulas for a few more weeks. In addition, we recommend that you follow a seasonal, whole foods diet, which you will naturally have the craving for now."

YOU Are Something Greater

"I'm not meant to just stay quiet, I'm meant to be a lion..." So here goes it... You were here before you were born and you will be here when you die. You are not your body and you are not your mind. Your mind and body are simply instruments. That which is not fulfilled in your waking state is fulfilled in the dream state. You are peace, purity, blissful and truth. You are all that is good. When you are in a deep sleep you are in complete peace and that is who you truly are. If you are dealing with health related issues that just don't seem to go away you must learn to separate your mind and body from your "true self". Yes, you must also care for your body by eating the right foods and exercising, etc, for your specific body type and you must remove toxic, repetitive, worthless thoughts from you mind. Amen. I said my piece. With love, Jennie

Rock Salt

Good article. The right kind of salt does not increase blood pressure, or cause health issues. In fact, it may alleviate some health issues when consumed with a well balanced diet for your body type. http://fitlife.tv/10-amazing-benefits-of-pink-himalayan-sa…/

Get Ready For Flu Season Now!

We are heading towards the autumn/winter months, so now is a perfect time to consider doing a cleanse. If you didn't cleanse in the spring now is a great time to remove excess mucous, toxins and accumulated summer heat. I work with the renowned Ayurvedic doctor, Dr. Douillard and his team of experts on a regular basis and we would love for you to join us for the fall cleanse. He has been on dr. Oz too! I am also working with Dr. Kumuda Reddy, Dr. Hari Sharma, Dr. Ryan Bentley and Dr. Anup Kanodia. I spend every evening reading and researching new things which empowers me so that I can be aware, informed and knowledgeable on a wide array of topics to serve you. I am currently exploring schools to further my education in the field of Ayurveda. How can I help and be a blessing to you and yours ? with love, jennie

Nothing Less Than Young Living

Young living is the world leader in essential oils, the pioneers. As we move out of the summer months and into the fall the mucous membranes begin to dry out. Now is a great time to invest in a diffuser or a coolmist humidifier. Utilizing essential oils like thieves to clean the air and kill viruses and bacteria will not only provide moisture to the nasal passages but again cleanse you and keep you healthier through the winter months. While essential oils are a great tool to keep you healthy and feeling well it is also imperative to eat the proper diet. Let me know how I can help put a program together for you and your family to ensure optimal wellness through the coming months. Have a great weekend with love Jen

Happy Monday- Labor Day

Happy Monday! So the official kick off date for the group cleanse.... Cleansing with thousands of people across the country and gaining support and insight begins Oct 13th-26th. It's a two week cleanse and it's Very manageable! Yes, it is true, as we age our bodies "slowly" lose the ability to do the things we did 10 years ago, but I want to emphasize slowly and gradually. Arthritis, dry eyes, trouble sleeping, shaking hands and muscle twitches, excess body heat and odor, constipation/loose bowels, gas/bloating, headaches, acne, underweight/overweight, illnesses, yes, even during the winter months, lack of motivation... These are all some of the things most people overlook as part of the normal aging process, but they are not normal at all! These are red flags! Eating the wrong foods for your body type, red meat (and I ate a lot of it for a period of time in my own life, but not anymore), alcohol, smoking, and excessive stress all contribute to growing health issues. Take control of your health today. You only have one body and you are much more than your body. Most cleanse products have artificial preservatives, gmo's or synthetic vitamins (we want to get all the crap out not continue to put it in). Join us for the cleanse starting on Oct 13th! Have a great week, with love, Jennie

Routine- Get It!

It is so important to establish a regular daily routine. This involves much more than most people are aware of. Have you heard of circadian medicine? It is a new science that suggests that we have lost our natural circadian rhythms of nature. It is so important to remain in tune and connected with nature. A well structured semi-annual cleanse in the spring and fall is a great way to reboot these natural rhythms. Join me and thousands of other people across the country in the fall cleanse taking place Oct 13th-Oct 26th. More to come- with love, Jennie
