If you are going to do Dr. Brogan’s 30 day detox, you have to find your why. Is it depression, is it weight loss, is it some other wanted change that is nagging at you? I suggest writing your reason down. Be totally honest, no one else is going to read it.
My why is that I want to see how I feel at the end of the 30 days. I recommend keeping a journal detailing how you feel throughout the 30 days.
I’ve seen transformations in my life as a result of dietary and other lifestyle changes. I can do things I didn’t think were possible, and I think Dr. Brogan’s detox will help me realize even more of what my mind and body are capable of.
A few years ago, my sister introduced me to The Four Hour Body Tim Ferriss. His slow carb diet is so easy to follow, there are no specialty ingredients or diet plans. Don’t let the size of the book scare you, he covers a lot in the book, and the slow carb section is about 2 pages.
I gave up my morning toast, and my daily ham and cheese sandwich. I started Tim’s slow carb diet to lose weight, (I was highly motivated at the time), but I have stuck with it now for years because of the difference in how I feel. I’ve never felt this good. I have energy like I never have before. It still surprises me some sometimes.
I used to be a slug. I had no energy. This goes all the way back to my childhood. This is how bad it was: if I was throwing a wadded piece of paper into a garbage can and missed the can, it would almost defeat me because I knew how much energy it would require for me to bend down and pick up that paper and put it in the trash. I thought this was just me, this was my normal.
I have a great deal of energy now, and energy is really the first thing we need to accomplish higher goals. Even now I do a little celebration when I miss the trash can and it’s no big thing for me to pick up what I dropped and make the shot.
Another change I’ve seen is organization. I’m not naturally an organized person. My normal was piles of clutter, especially paper, around my house. And despite my best efforts, I couldn’t keep it down. Surfaces were the enemy. 3 big clutter collection spots were my purse, my car, and the ledge above my stairs. I would do occasional big cleans of these areas, but they would inevitably get cluttered again. Recently though, I’ve been able to keep these trouble areas totally clutter-free, and the best thing is, it feels effortless. It’s not like it has been previously where it was such a mental drain to see these areas all cluttered up, and not feel like I had the time or energy to deal with them. I now have the energy and focus to keep these areas clean.
These reasons may seem small, but to me they’re huge, and, I feel, just the tip of the iceberg.
Lasting changes in our lives begin with nutrition and the food we choose to eat. That’s why I recommend journaling your reason for doing this cleanse. I think your why might change. You might start with one reason, but find other, exciting benefits you couldn’t predict. We can be more capable, more energetic and more present in our own lives. And I believe that begins with the food we eat.
