Program intro: Dr. Kelly Brogan’s detox/cleanse

Hi amazing people!

I want to give you an overview of Dr. Brogan’s plan, and then over the next four weeks, I’ll dive a little deeper into the recommendations for each week, including recipes. The next few paragraphs are an excerpt from Dr. Brogan’s Book:

“Over the 30 days, you’ll achieve four important goals:

1. Introduce a new way of nourishing your body through the foods you eat.
2. Green your home environment, divorcing yourself from the modern love affair with toxicants.
3. Incorporate a daily meditative practice into your life, one that stimulates the body’s natural relaxation response and paves the way for lasting transformation.
4. Prioritize getting routine restful sleep and adequate exercise throughout the week.

I’ve broken down the program into four weeks, with each week devoted to focusing on one specific goal so you can establish a new rhythm and maintain these healthy habits for life. You’ll use the time leading up to the first week to get your kitchen organized and begin to wean yourself from sugar and wheat products as you clear out the junk and replace it with real whole foods. During week 1, “Dietary Detox”, you’ll start my menu plan and execute my nutritional recommendations, which you’ll continue throughout the 30 days.

During week 2, “Home Detox” I’ll encourage you to green your home and living environment.

In week 3, “Peace of Mind,” you’ll turn your attention to establishing a daily meditative practice to switch on your body’s natural relaxation response. This will become a daily habit for life.

During week 4, “Movement and Sleep”, you’ll start a regular workout program if you haven’t done so already. I’ll give you ideas for moving more throughout the day. I’ll also be asking you to focus on your sleep habits and follow a few simple guidelines to ensure that you’re achieving the best way possible every single night, weekends included.

I’ll be helping you put all the elements of this program together and equipping you with the strategies for permanently establishing new behaviors in your life. Don’t second-guess your ability to succeed. I’ve designed this program to be as practical and easy-to-follow as possible.”

That’s it. Like I said, I’ll dive deeper into each week’s “plan,” but I wanted to give you an overview so you know what to expect and can get excited.

We’re starting January 1st if you’d like to join us. This is going to be awesome!

Much love,

Rachel
