As you move toward better health with natural healing programs and better nutrition, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process the body will begin to discard toxic residues which have built up in your body over the years. The healing process usually does not occur without repercussions. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house, (detoxify) and your vital energy begins to repair and rebuild internal organs, you may experience headache, uneasiness, flu like symptoms and fatigue. It is important that you adequately rest during this time. Our diets often lack fermented foods or probiotics. Introducing probiotics, new types of nutrition and cleansing is sure to bring benefits and side effects. The body is like a huge filing system. Everything good or bad youve ever done, your body has a small record of that stored away in fat cells and places like your joints and muscles. If you spent 2 years binge drinking in college, that’s stored somewhere inside you. Run a marathon, your body never forgets. Often it means the body is toxic and in need of purge. Even if the lifestyle has not been terrible, detoxification will occur When detoxification is introduced side effects begin. Holistic and naturapathic treatments, intended to induce this detoxification process. Kombucha is simply one of the easiest to do for yourself, and moreover, actually helps the liver purge where other probiotics only stimulate the detox. The body has an inherent desire for perfect health. We have the ability to earn our way back to that state, no matter how normal or bad our health is now. But in the meantime, the body must go through an elimination process to achieve good health. The elimination process is often referred to as the healing crisis. Once the healing crisis starts, reactions may be mild or severe. Expect ups and downs as it takes awhile to get good health back. In a healing crisis, every body system works together to eliminate waste products and set the stage for regeneration. Old tissues are replaced with new. A disease occurs when the body cannot make it through its natural healing crises for one reason or another. The body is locked into a destructive and shut down place, physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Symptoms of the healing crisis may at first be identical to the disease it is meant to heal. But there is an important difference: elimination. A cleansing, purifying process is underway and stored wastes are in a free-flowing state. The body, mind, and spirit are no longer locked. Sometimes pain and symptoms during the healing crisis are more intense than that of the chronic disease, but it is temporary and necessary. The crisis will usually bring about past conditions and personal issues. People often forget the diseases, issues, or injuries they have had in the past, but are usually reminded during the crisis so that they can heal their unfinished business. This arises in whatever order the body is capable of handling at that time. Some great guidelines for getting through a Herxheimer Reaction (doctor speak for healing crisis) including: Dr. Karl Herxheimer Drink lots of pure alkaline ionized water Get minimal exercise daily Lots of sunshine Take detoxification slowly … one step at a time Don’t increase the dose of herbals Keep the organs of elimination (bowels, lungs, skin, kidneys) open Take detox baths Use aromatherapy oils for aches -like peppermint, birch, and wintergreen Sweat by using exercise, saunas, baths, and herbs Avoid foreign chemicals and refined processed foods “The more toxins there are to eliminate, the sicker one is when they come out. Generally, one will feel better when all is over and health is restored again. Just remember, don’t give up.” ref:excerpts from Dr. Stanley Bass
