Generally the healing crisis is short-lived, so give it time and be patient.
Be sure you are eating all raw foods—mainly fresh fruits and fresh juices.
Most fruits have strong antioxidant and astringent properties for helping the
body rid itself of toxins. If you do not feel like eating, do not eat. Let the
body rest and be sure to drink plenty of fresh juices or pure water. Do not let
the body dehydrate.
If your diet is 80 percent or more of fresh, raw, uncooked fruits and
vegetables, all your symptoms will be due to the “process of detoxifying” that
your body is putting itself through. If your diet is 50/50, your symptoms may
be more of an acid condition. This can keep your healing crisis hanging on
for days.
You may also wish to use botanical formulas to assist the cleanse.
Resting and having a positive mental attitude are essential as well. If the
healing crisis has lasted more than two to three weeks and you need a break
from this process, just begin eating cooked foods again. This will lower the
body’s energy causing the cleansing action to stop. However, it is highly
recommended to push the cleansing as long as possible. Detoxification
always leads to vitality. In the end, detoxification will bring vibrant health,
vitality and spirituality.
MODULE 6.6
The “Healing Crisis”The following are some examples of the “Healing Crisis” that can happen
during the cleansing processes. During my thirty years of detoxification
experience I have witnessed so many different types of healing “crises” that I
do not have the space to cover them all. This section deals with the most
common side effects, many of which I have undergone from my own
detoxification efforts.
I have divided these cleansing side effects into three categories: Mild,
Moderate and Strong. Each of these levels may be experienced at one time or
another. However, most people do not experience the strong levels. It all
depends upon one’s level of toxicity, combined with his or her systemic (total
body) energies or strength.
