5 Energy Medicine Tips for Spring Detoxification
by Linda White Dove
------------------------------------------------------------


Spring is a time when many people choose an inner cleansing program to
remove toxins and other accumulated waste products from their bodies.
On a daily basis we are often exposed to additives and preservatives,
"food" made in laboratories, pesticides, water and air pollutants,
cleaning products, allergens and more, all which accumulate in the
body. Additionally products such as sugar, alcohol, tobacco, soft
drinks, coffee and more can alter the body chemistry. These, along
with the high levels of stress that often come with busy lives, create
the perfect inner landscape for low energy and illness to take root
and manifest. While many people turn to herbs or dietary changes for
inner cleansing, energy medicine offers options that can complement
other approaches or stand on its own. Here are 5 simple and fun
activities to aid in cleansing your body from the inside out.

1.  Your body is designed to cleanse automatically. However, sometimes
when there is an accumulation of toxins, some focused assistance is
necessary. If there is a specific organ or other "part" of your body
that you would like to cleanse, here is something to try that is often
effective and usually enlightening. Imagine that part of your body
like a room in a house. Walk into that room and notice the
surroundings. How is it decorated? How clean is it? How do you feel
when inside it? All these are cues to your state of health. Imagine
what you would like the room to be like and imagine that as you decide
how you want the room to be, it changes to match your desire. Be sure
to make the changes lovingly, with admiration and awe. Your body works
hard for you. Despite anything you may do that could cause health
challenges (and most everyone does something, even if it is just to
live in a polluted world) your body does its best to keep balanced and
healthy. When the room is cleaned and decorated just the way you want,
notice how good it feels to be in the room and when you are ready,
feel the gratitude and go on to another room if you wish.

2.  There is a current commercial on television for a fast food chain,
promoting their sugary pastries and coffee proclaiming that America
runs on their product and it is what makes Americans able to pursue
their busy lives and get things done. Of course, when a person "fuels"
on nutritionally devoid food, they are essentially borrowing from the
future by depleting stores of nutrients, bone density, the body's
ability to heal itself quickly, and probably much more as well.
However, we do have the ability to open the body up to nourishment
from inside. If you think of each of your cells as a doorway to the
divine, each of your cells holds all possibility inside, and the
divine is infinite. Another way to think of it is that if you go
deeply enough into your cells, you will eventually access that level
of being in which your body, cell by cell, is birthed from and
dissolves back into the formless void; that place of pure potential
that holds all healing and everything else you could possibly need. If
you wish, you can journey (using either your imagination or any
specific technique that appeals to you) to travel inside a body "part"
to the formless void and then back into the body part bringing with
you the unlimited potential for health that the void offers. This is
not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle and good choices, but it is a
way to restore and regenerate some of what might have been lost from
past experiences.

3.  Your body responds to how you think about it. If you wish, choose
an organ or some other part of your body to cleanse. When you think of
this body part, think of a person or image to represent it. I had
painful cysts in my breasts and when I tried this activity what I saw
was two anthills filled with stinging ants. While this image was
shocking and surprising, the awareness was very healing for me and
continues to be helpful. You might be surprised what you discover if
you try this with your own body. There are many ways you can work with
the images that come up. Use your imagination and playfulness and the
healing will take place as you change how you view yourself.

4.  Do you remember what it feels like to be "head over heels" in
love? Remember it now for a moment and notice how your heart feels
expansive and filled with joy and light. Now take a few minutes to sit
comfortably and choose a body "part" to cleanse. Notice the body part
in whatever way works best for you to be aware of it. Then feel
towards it the same way it felt to be head over heels in love. Be in
love with it and notice how it feels. If you wish to accelerate and
deepen the cleansing process, breathe into the body part as you love
it. As odd as this activity may seem, it is the best energy medicine
cleansing processes I have ever tried. Love is the most "powerful"
healing tool you have, and it is "built in" to each and every person
so that everyone can use it for healing.

5. As you cleanse your body using the above activities, it is
important to also make the changes in your lifestyle to support the
detoxification. If you experience cravings for sugar, cigarettes,
alcohol or other substances that make detoxification difficult,
consider options to help you eliminate the cravings and release
unhealthy dependencies. Energy Medicine Cabinet offers attunements
designed to help with the cravings when removing cigarettes, sugar
and/or alcohol from your life. Energy Medicine Cabinet also offers
attunements to resolve allergies and chemical sensitivities, which are
also helpful in detoxifying the body, strengthening the immune system
