Spring Cleansing is the answer!


Join our 10 day GUIDED CLEANSE,

that will lighten you up
& put you on the path of living a healthier life.

Our cleanse focuses on real food, optional herbs, and lifestyle choices that support the bodies’ natural detoxification systems.  In addition to an in depth overview & check-ins, you’ll receive DAILY SUPPORT throughout the 10 days. The cleanse is customizable to suit your goals – whether you’re a first time cleanser or wanting to go deeper.  This cleanse isn’t about deprivation – the plan is easy to follow, and will help you to build healthy eating habits that will last well beyond the 10 days.  This is NOT a juice only cleanse.  I encourage juices, but you will learn how to eat real foods that are supportive.   If you want to lighten up, and get on a health plan that will last – this is the cleanse for you!

But cleanses are intense & about deprivation right? They don’t have to be.

My experience with cleansing has been supportive & nourishing.  To me, it makes more sense to focus on the foods that you want more of, not the foods that you can’t have.  Actually in this cleanse there is no such thing as foods you can’t have.  I’ll highlight foods & herbs that are specifically supportive for cleansing, and indicate foods that are not.   I’ll support you with a plan for following a cleanse in its truest sense, but ultimately you decide how deep you want to go…if that means reducing caffeine & increasing veggies – that is your cleanse. Or if that means eliminating sugar & doing a juice fast, that is your cleanse.  Our body is smart – and the best cleanse we can do is one that listens to our bodies’ needs.

So why cleanse:

  • Even if you think you’re healthy, we’re exposed to a vast # of toxins everyday… everywhere (air, water, plastics, nail polish, household cleaners, alcohol, processed &bbq meats, non-organic foods…)
  • Toxins get stored in our fat cells & disrupt our hormones & natural weight regulation process… this means the accumulation of toxins in our body can make us tired, moody… and fat!
  • When toxins build up our natural detoxification processes don’t work properly, and we reabsorb toxins we should be releasing creating a vicious cycle

Your concerns:

  1. You’re traveling.  You can start the cleanse any time you like or you can make the best of your diet while your travel.  While cooking is ideal, it is not required during the cleanse.  There are ways to find healthy options on the road.
  2. You hate to cook & don’t have time. While preparing your own meals is best, you can follow the cleanse guidelines when eating out as well. I wouldn’t recommend eating every meal out, but if you have a lunch/dinner  already planned, you’ll be able to work around this.
  3. There’s going to be too much temptation around me. Consider that it’s just a short period of your life.  And whatever it is you think you need to indulge in will still be waiting for you after the cleanse. The others in the group will be there to support you.  Or be gentle with yourself & realize that cleansing doesn’t have to mean perfection & just doing the best you can under the circumstances is all you can ask for. I’m here to support you with the degree of  accountability that you want.
  4. You’re convinced you’ll never make it through.  That’s why we’ve got the support group – to motivate each other.  The first few days can be challenging, but you’ll be surprised how much light energy you can have during a cleanse.
  5. You’re scared of headaches and feeling tired & crabby – besides how will you get through the workday? It’s true, some people experience withdrawl symptoms, but in working with me you’ll learn tips to reduce those symptoms.  Not everyone experiences these symptoms, but if you do they are signs that your body is releasing the toxins.  Symptoms generally last a day or 2, and after you’ll feel soo much better!  Again withdrawl symptoms will be dependent on your current health, and how deep YOU want to take the cleanse.  In this kind of supportive cleanse we’re not focused on deprivation…so you might be surprised at how good you feel!
