The word “detox” has become somewhat of a buzzword, but there's a lot of misunderstanding around what it means. I’m joined by detox specialist and Ayurvedic practitioner Tracy Stonaker to broaden the conversation around this concept and help you see it through a few different lenses. Detoxing is a deeply personal experience and more about the full mind-body system than an abrupt juice cleanse or fast. Tracy and I discuss the starting point for learning about toxicity, ancient and modern practices, and our top recommendations for daily detoxing. 

Detoxing is a lifestyle, not just a one-off thing. So many of us today are exposed to toxins through the food that we eat, the water that we drink, and the air that we breathe. In fact, we start ingesting them while we are in our mother’s womb. As we grow, we also face another type of toxin: negative thoughts. Besides doing physical detoxes, we need to bring our mindset into it as well. When emotional issues are not resolved, they show up in the body. 

It can feel like a daunting journey, but Tracy and I share ways to approach detox in a relaxed and playful way. The simplest things, like getting out into nature, sleeping when it’s dark, and eating fresh food are the most impactful ways to change your health. Listen in to learn more about detoxification and how you can implement cleansing practices today.
