Detoxification Uses
July 21, 2010 by author · Leave a Comment
Detoxification is the procedure of clearing the body from any sort of toxins like drugs, alcohol or environmental and food toxins. The term is most commonly used for drug abuse cases, but the short version detox is also a popular beauty procedure of cleaning the skin.
The most common thing however, is to detoxify the body from an addiction to an illegal substance or drug. The procedure has nothing to do with therapy where the patient should address the issues that have made him an addict. It has to do with helping with fighting withdrawal symptoms when the body stops taking the addictive substance. The social and behavioral factors that are included in an addiction cannot be treated this way. Only the symptoms of the body are going to be relived. Symptoms are intense and severe and can cause the patient to stop therapy so getting help is a big step that can help with further that enables the person o get well again. The procedure is made up of three phases.
The first stage is called the evaluation stage. In this stage the substances that the person is addicted to our found. A blood sample may also be analyzed just to see the amount of these substances that flow in the body. This also shows the capability of the body to remove a certain amount separately on its own. The stage is very helpful to determine the treatment that the person can benefit from. The second stage is stabilization. The person will most certainly need help to go through the withdrawal symptoms he will feel after quitting the drug. If someone has been taking drugs for long, the body has probably gotten used to them and has altered the normal way of functioning completely to adjust to drugs. Now the opposite thing should be done again. This phase is important and it requires medical attention. The third phase is guidance. After the person’s body is clean again and starts functioning normally, the patient is left to deal with the problems that have caused him to become an addict. This is easier now that the patient can think clearly. The same procedure is used with alcohol. Detoxifying the body from alcohol is difficult. Increased alcohol intake for several years causes the brain to stop producing certain chemicals and substitutes them with alcohol. When the brain doesn’t get any alcohol, it must start making these substances again. In order to go through this procedure without severe damage, the person needs help.
If we are talking about diets, the subject is rather confusing. Primary the term detox diet is used to describe a diet that promises to remove toxins from your body. The diet has limited portions of food basically only fruits and vegetables and all of them propose an increased intake of water or tea. The diet is proposed to people that had recently an increased consumption of processed food or have gone through a period of simply eating more than they should. It is characteristic that these diets are commonly seen in periods after holidays, for example after Christmas.
The diets are more often seen after the holiday period, a period when people tend to consume more food than usual and think they have to do something about it. They are also common before summer. However, there is no proof that they work to your benefit.

God is love…so be love…let your words, your actions, your thoughts reflect God’s love…and give that love to others.
If God’s love isn’t flowing out of you…then choose to, right now, to be still and let God fill you up with His love. Be still and let God whisper wisdom and guidance to you. Be still and let God heal you. You don’t have to continue your life the way you are. It is your choice. He will never leave you or forsake you. Call out to God and He will answer you. If you called out, then are you listening???
I called out to God 8 years ago while being still after hitting rock bottom and He answered me and is still answering me. He answered me, so I listened and He guided me every step of the way over the next few years and I healed completely naturally from addictions, extreme panic attacks, numbness of the face and arm, extreme back pain, hidden anger, lust, negative thoughts and words, broken relationships, hearing voices, hallucinating, depression and so much more and it all started with stillness. Being still is the most powerful thing I do, and I do it every moment I can.

God is the only one that can conquer that anger issue, your anxiety problem, your addiction, the greed and lust, the broken relationships, the negative thoughts and words, those past wounds…so why aren’t you choosing to grab a hold of Him. Stop trying to do it on your own. Our Heavenly Father’s lap is always available to us.
He is saying, “Come”…are you listening…he is saying “Come, let me hold you my child, let me love you, let me heal you, let me guide you and direct you.” “I have great wisdom to share with you, I have many blessings in store for you.” “Come sit on Daddy’s lap”.
It is the best place to be…so choose to climb up and take a breath…in the stillness and hear the whispers…in God’s presence. Then, you will not be able to contain the love…you will be so filled up with His love that it will just flow out of you and you will naturally want to give it to others.
So is the problem that we are just too busy to sit on Dad’s lap? Is the problem that we pray and pray and pray but how much time do you actually spend being still to listen?
The guidance is already written out for us…we just need to listen.
Be still and know that I am God…Psalm 46:10.
