Food Therapy
It is essential to avoid overeating, and to chew all food thoroughly. This allows the
food that is eaten to be digested properly, and facilitates the absorption of nutrients.
The most available and low-cost remedy is proper chewing. Chew chew…. ☺

" Exuberance is beauty,” William Blake wrote, and it’s surprising how much sheer energy level can affect the quality of the happiness of a day.
This month’s special: - Refer a friend for a series of 3 colonics and receive a free detox bag. There’s a little organic chocolate in it to treat yourself before of after your cleanse.
Included is also psyllium husks, which is the covering of seeds grown on the plant, Plantago Psyllium, which flourishes in the middle east. Psyllium husk
has long been recognized as an excellent means of getting more dietary fiber into a person’s diet due to its high fiber count in comparison to other grains. at bran, also a good source of fiber, has about 5 grams of fiber per third of a cup. Psyllium husk, on the other hand, offers approximately 71 grams of fiber for that same third of a cup. The most important thing when taking psyllium husks is to drink lots of water with it and through out the day, (aim for 2-3 litres daily)
Tips to achieve maximum physical and spiritual well being:
- If your last meal has not left you entirely comfortable in mind and body, skip the next meal.
- Eat only if you have a keen desire for the plainest food.
- Do not eat beyond your needs. Do not eat to satiety.
- The law of Variety. Our diets should have the proper variety. Each day we should eat different vegetables, different fruits, different starches, and different proteins.
- Be sure to thoroughly chew your food.
- Forego a meal if you are in pain, emotionally upset, not hungry, chilled or overheated.
- Never eat during acute illness.
- Skin brush daily.
- Have regular colonics.
- Practise deep breathing daily.
- Exercise daily.
- Do not smoke or drink alcohol.
- Go to bed early. If you are sick, rest more than normal. Work out any problems in the morning; don’t take them to bed with you. Sleep with good ventilation to the outdoors.
Enhance and support your cleansing process with naturopathy.
"Living in the modern world means that we are exposed to toxins regularly, in our water, food and air. By cleansing, or depuration as the Nature doctors of old called it. Cleansing is a fundamental element of naturopathic practice, which essentially is the practice of supporting the body to heal itself."
