<\/a>Konjac Loofah Bamboo Charcoal Medley Body Sponge (75 x 135 x 30mm), R289<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n Dry brushing with a loofah<\/a> is a wonderful way to get your lymph flowing and brush off that old skin to reveal your new summer self. Your lymph plays an important role in ridding your body of waste and keeping your immune system in top form.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=”6545″]<\/p>\n After you have done some dry brushing, there are some fantastic simple bath soaks you can take to open up your pours and encourage your skin to release toxins.<\/p>\n Victorian Garden Magnificent Lavender Epsom Bath Salts 200g, R45<\/p><\/div>\n Epsom salts:<\/em> A cup of Epsom salts in a hot water bath will open your pores and allow toxins to be released as well as replenish your body with a dose of relaxing magnesium. You can also try a mix of one cup sodium bicarb with one cup epsom salts as it helps neutralize chemicals such as chlorine in your bath water. It’s best to take this bath before you go to bed as it can make you sleepy.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=”5731″]<\/p>\n Clay Baths<\/em> such as zeolite<\/a> and french green clay<\/a> draw heavy metals and toxins out through your skin. These clays can also be taken internally as a powerful way to mop up toxins.<\/p>\n If you can arrange for the luxury of a good massage to get the flow going in your body, spoil yourself a little, otherwise, give yourself a little self massage by adding few drops of detoxing oils such as coriander <\/a>or grapefruit <\/a>or juniper<\/a> essential oils to some massage oil, or else use an oil blend<\/a> created to assist with detox. Great for shifting cellulite too!<\/p>\n Cupping <\/a>is an ancient art that is experiencing renewed interest. Cups are used to create a suction on your skin to get your energy and circulation moving, which is great for releasing blocks and promoting detox.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Bellabaci Body Cup Set 5.5cm x 6cm, R350<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n Bellabaci Body Cups<\/a>\u00a0 create a suction as you massage that stimulates your circulation, eliminates stagnation and increases your metabolism, having an effect on both your skin and your internal organs. The Bellabaci cup massage breaks up waste products, stimulates your lymph and has a very relaxing and rejuvenating effect on your body and skin.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=””]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n *Please note these cups work with lubricant – take a look at Bellabaci’s wonderful range of specially formulated oils<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sweating is one of the most effective ways to remove toxins from your body. If you have access to one, saunas are wonderful for helping you unload some of those nasty toxins. Even better, infrared saunas can penetrate more deeply into your skin, releasing stored toxins to be sweated out, as well as promoting relaxation and a stronger immune system.<\/p>\n Flora Force Milk Thistle 60 vegecaps 400mg<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n It’s crucial to support your liver when you detox as it plays such a big role in distinguishing which nutrients you need to absorb and which to filter out of your bloodstream, and in processing nutrients and fats. Milk Thistle<\/a> is an excellent support for your liver, as well as turmeric<\/a>. Drinking a squeeze of lemon in hot water every morning is also excellent for kickstarting your liver.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=”8954″]<\/p>\n Diuretics will help your kidneys and urinary tract flush out toxins more effectively. It\u2019s very important though that you get in enough pure water as you do this. Some diuretic foods include cucumber, celery and parsley. You can also drink diuretic teas such as buchu<\/a>, hibiscus<\/a> or take some dandelion<\/a> which are\u00a0 all wonderful kidney tonics and great overall detox support. A combination of Dandelion and Milk Thistle together make an excellent tonic too.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Flora Force Dandelion 60 vegecaps 300mg, R99<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Dandelion is a superb tonic for your liver, gallbladder kidneys, bladder, pancreas, spleen and stomach, giving a thorough spring clean to these crucial systems in your body.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=”7704″]<\/p>\n Keep your digestion flowing nicely so that toxins don\u2019t get stuck in your colon. Digestive fiber, such as soaked flax seeds<\/a> or psyllium husk<\/a>, along with a good probiotic<\/a>, are good basics that will keep your tummy functioning well throughout your detox. If you get a spot of constipation, aloe bitters <\/a>can also help move things along.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pukka Detox Tea 20 sachets, R95<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Pukka\u2019s detoxing tea blend <\/a>is made with a selection of cleansing herbs that help to improve digestion. The mix of fennel, aniseed, cardamom and liquorice gives this tea a lovely aroma and flavour, while working to soothe and calm your digestive system.<\/p>\n [add-to-bag productid=”4626″]<\/p>\n To absorb toxins released from your colon you could try taking diatamacious earth<\/a> or Zeolite Powder<\/a> internally as it is a super toxin absorber. Herbs to support your digestion include fennel and peppermint.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Real Thing Zeolites 300g, R129<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n Amazing <\/em><\/a> [add-to-bag productid=”3221″]<\/p>\n Our trusty friends, antioxidants are always at hand to support our bodies with dealing with pesky toxins. Vitamin C<\/a>, grapeseed extract<\/a> and chlorella<\/a> will all give a dose of potent antioxidant power, as well as preparing food with spices such as tumeric<\/a> and cayenne<\/a>. Chlorella also chelates heavy metals form your system.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Real Thing Ester-C Combo Tablets 120 tabs, R163<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n This Works! <\/em><\/a> [add-to-bag productid=”3220″]<\/p>\n With all the toxins moving through your system, you want to make sure you are well hydrated. Sipping purified hot water is a good way to do this – warm or hot water is absorbed more easily by your body, whereas cooled water can shock your system and give your body extra work to do bringing it back to body temperature.<\/p>\n While you are in the middle of your detox, you may not want to overdo the exercise, but some gentle exercise and stretching will help your body oxygenate and flow too. Deep breathing\u00a0 is an important tool for detoxifying your system. Breathe deep into your tummy and then fill up your entire diaphragm to really reach all those stagnant areas.<\/p>\n Detoxing happens on more than just a physical level. When you release physical toxins you can also be releasing blocked emotions. Some emotional TLC can help soothe you and help you gain some perspective. Rescue remedy<\/a> is a lovely way to gently support your emotions, or drinking tea such as calming chamomile<\/a> or a cup of Blissful Tulsi Rose<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tulsi Organic Sweet Rose Tea 18 teabags, R61<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Delicious! <\/em><\/a> [add-to-bag productid=”4438″]<\/p>\n And lastly, remember Mother Earth. Grounding yourself and connecting with her energy is extremely healing and strengthening. When you walk barefoot on the earth you connect with her electromagnetic field, which stabilises your electromagnetic system and gives you some free acupuncture into the bargain!<\/p>\n Be gentle on yourself, don\u2019t overdo it and remember that if you are seriously ill, always check with a qualified professional before you take on a detox. Here’s wishing you joy for the year ahead!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 2016 is here! It’s a new year and the perfect time for a detox after all the holiday fun and indulgence.
