Energy Detox: for improved health
We get our
messages (our symptoms) from the fluids in our body. If the lymph is
stuffed with toxins - either accumulated over time or released by the
cells during a detox or "demanding" times such as the full moon, the soltices (21
June and 21 December) and the equinoxes (21 March and 21 September) - then
we tend to feel "toxic". This will be however we individually feel when we
are worse than usual. Headaches or migraines for some, more aches and
pains for others, irritability or mood swings for still others, and on and
on. You will know what it is for you.
When we've accumulated more environmental and
internally generated waste than the connective tissue spaces can hold, the
surplus may be disposed of by "sticking it in a corner". They may be
shoved into less critical structures such as joint spaces or nasal sinuses
in order to protect vital organs and to preserve some degree of normal
functioning in the extracellular matrix. These spots then become like
stagnant pools that encourage the growth of microbes.
These spots
become a major drain on the immune system, which must constantly struggle
to keep the growth of microbes in the area under control. The nasal
sinuses are a prime example. Sinusitis is so widespread that it probably
affects most of the population at one time or another. The perspective
that is emerging here is that of a system that is overburdened and backing
up.
If the routes
of elimination are not functioning properly, they cannot handle the
"increased traffic" created by cleansing. This means that we either feel
worse after a few days of detoxing and have to stop or we go thru a
"healing crisis". Thus the matching of the rate of elimination from the
tissues with the elimination to the outside of the body is a very
important concept in the journey to real health.
Only when this essential step is overlooked (unfortunately much too often)
does there have to be a "healing crisis".
The route out is from inside the
cells to the fluids (lymph and blood) then through the liver (where
detoxification phases I and II take place) and out of the body thru
the intestines. When the
lymph fluids become oversaturated (and thus sluggish) due to too much
being released from inside the cells, the body has to set up a fever in
order to thin it and get it moving. Or there might be heavy elimination
through the skin, or kidney/bladder or lung problems showing up. Of
course, these kinds of problems will also happen when internal cleansing
is not happening properly - but at least they should not be caused due to too much
"deliberately" being released from the tissues by detoxers who
don't really understand what they are doing.
Energy Detox enables the body to
detoxify and eliminate on a daily, hourly, even minute-by-minute basis.
Because we are not using our minds to force the rate of detoxification,
the body is usually able to match rates of detoxification to elimination, reducing
the auto-toxification and
"healing crises" that are so common when detoxes
are undertaken.
It is possible to have very uncomfortable symptoms
whilst undertaking
Energy Detox
although it
usually means that the body is so desperate to detox that it is
overwhelming the main routes of elimination for a while (see the
"your
toxic picture" section, about halfway down the Feeling Worse
during a Detox page).
